Print an array of dependency objects using CSS-like selectors. More information: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/npm-query.

• Print direct dependencies:

npm query ':root > *'

• Print all direct production/development dependencies:

npm query ':root > .{{prod|dev}}'

• Print dependencies with a specific name:

npm query '#{{package}}'

• Print dependencies with a specific name and within a semantic versioning range:

npm query '#{{package}}@{{semantic_version}}'

• Print dependencies which have no dependencies:

npm query ':empty'

• Find all dependencies with postinstall scripts and uninstall them:

npm query ":attr(scripts, [postinstall])" | jq 'map(.name) | join("\n")' {{[-r|--raw-output]}} | xargs -I _ npm uninstall _

• Find all Git dependencies and print which application requires them:

npm query ":type(git)" | jq 'map(.name)' | xargs -I _ npm why _
