  12. <pre><code>npm dedupe [package names...]
  13. npm ddp [package names...]
  14. </code></pre><h2 id="description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
  15. <p>Searches the local package tree and attempts to simplify the overall
  16. structure by moving dependencies further up the tree, where they can
  17. be more effectively shared by multiple dependent packages.</p>
  18. <p>For example, consider this dependency graph:</p>
  19. <pre><code>a
  20. +-- b &lt;-- depends on c@1.0.x
  21. | `-- c@1.0.3
  22. `-- d &lt;-- depends on c@~1.0.9
  23. `-- c@1.0.10
  24. </code></pre><p>In this case, <code><a href="../cli/npm-dedupe.html">npm-dedupe(1)</a></code> will transform the tree to:</p>
  25. <pre><code>a
  26. +-- b
  27. +-- d
  28. `-- c@1.0.10
  29. </code></pre><p>Because of the hierarchical nature of node&#39;s module lookup, b and d
  30. will both get their dependency met by the single c package at the root
  31. level of the tree.</p>
  32. <p>If a suitable version exists at the target location in the tree
  33. already, then it will be left untouched, but the other duplicates will
  34. be deleted.</p>
  35. <p>If no suitable version can be found, then a warning is printed, and
  36. nothing is done.</p>
  37. <p>If any arguments are supplied, then they are filters, and only the
  38. named packages will be touched.</p>
  39. <p>Note that this operation transforms the dependency tree, and may
  40. result in packages getting updated versions, perhaps from the npm
  41. registry.</p>
  42. <p>This feature is experimental, and may change in future versions.</p>
  43. <p>The <code>--tag</code> argument will apply to all of the affected dependencies. If a
  44. tag with the given name exists, the tagged version is preferred over newer
  45. versions.</p>
