--- title: npm-shrinkwrap section: 1 description: Lock down dependency versions for publication --- ### Synopsis ```bash npm shrinkwrap ``` Note: This command is unaware of workspaces. ### Description This command repurposes `package-lock.json` into a publishable `npm-shrinkwrap.json` or simply creates a new one. The file created and updated by this command will then take precedence over any other existing or future `package-lock.json` files. For a detailed explanation of the design and purpose of package locks in npm, see [package-lock-json](/configuring-npm/package-lock-json). ### See Also * [npm install](/commands/npm-install) * [npm run-script](/commands/npm-run-script) * [npm scripts](/using-npm/scripts) * [package.json](/configuring-npm/package-json) * [package-lock.json](/configuring-npm/package-lock-json) * [npm-shrinkwrap.json](/configuring-npm/npm-shrinkwrap-json) * [npm ls](/commands/npm-ls)
