Properties

author?

ts
optional author: PackageJsonPerson;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:175

The “author” is one person.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.author

bin?

ts
optional bin: string | Record<string, string>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:207

A map of command name to local file name. On install, npm will symlink that file into prefix/bin for global installs, or ./node_modules/.bin/ for local installs.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.bin

browser?

ts
optional browser: string | Record<string, string | false>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:199

If your module is meant to be used client-side the browser field should be used instead of the main field. This is helpful to hint users that it might rely on primitives that aren’t available in Node.js modules. (e.g. window)

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.browser

bugs?

ts
optional bugs:
  | string
  | {
  email?: string;
  url?: string;
};

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:144

The url to your project’s issue tracker and / or the email address to which issues should be reported. These are helpful for people who encounter issues with your package.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.bugs

contributors?

ts
optional contributors: PackageJsonPerson[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:179

“contributors” is an array of people.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.contributors

cpu?

ts
optional cpu: string[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:325

If your code only runs on certain cpu architectures, you can specify which ones.

json
{
  "cpu": ["x64", "ia32"]
}

Like the os option, you can also block architectures:

json
{
  "cpu": ["!arm", "!mips"]
}

The host architecture is determined by process.arch

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.cpu

dependencies?

ts
optional dependencies: Record<string, string>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:215

Dependencies are specified in a simple object that maps a package name to a version range. The version range is a string which has one or more space-separated descriptors. Dependencies can also be identified with a tarball or git URL.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.dependencies

description?

ts
optional description: string;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:132

Put a description in it. It’s a string. This helps people discover your package, as it’s listed in npm search.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.description

devDependencies?

ts
optional devDependencies: Record<string, string>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:220

If someone is planning on downloading and using your module in their program, then they probably don’t want or need to download and build the external test or documentation framework that you use. In this case, it’s best to map these additional items in a devDependencies object.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.devDependencies

exports?

ts
optional exports: PackageJsonExports;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:262

Alternate and extensible alternative to "main" entry point.

When using {type: "module"}, any ESM module file MUST end with .mjs extension.

ts
PackageJson.exports

files?

ts
optional files: string[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:189

The optional files field is an array of file patterns that describes the entries to be included when your package is installed as a dependency. File patterns follow a similar syntax to .gitignore, but reversed: including a file, directory, or glob pattern (*, **/*, and such) will make it so that file is included in the tarball when it’s packed. Omitting the field will make it default to ["*"], which means it will include all files.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.files

funding?

ts
optional funding: PackageJsonFunding | PackageJsonFunding[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:185

ts
optional homepage: string;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:140

keywords?

ts
optional keywords: string[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:136

Put keywords in it. It’s an array of strings. This helps people discover your package as it’s listed in npm search.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.keywords

license?

ts
optional license: string;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:151

You should specify a license for your package so that people know how they are permitted to use it, and any restrictions you’re placing on it.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.license

main?

ts
optional main: string;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:195

The main field is a module ID that is the primary entry point to your program. That is, if your package is named foo, and a user installs it, and then does require("foo"), then your main module’s exports object will be returned. This should be a module ID relative to the root of your package folder. For most modules, it makes the most sense to have a main script and often not much else.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.main

man?

ts
optional man: string | string[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:211

Non-Standard Node.js alternate entry-point to main. An initial implementation for supporting CJS packages (from main), and use module for ESM modules.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.module

name?

ts
optional name: string;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:124

The name is what your thing is called. Some rules:

  • The name must be less than or equal to 214 characters. This includes the scope for scoped packages.
  • The name can’t start with a dot or an underscore.
  • New packages must not have uppercase letters in the name.
  • The name ends up being part of a URL, an argument on the command line, and a folder name. Therefore, the name can’t contain any non-URL-safe characters.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.name

optionalDependencies?

ts
optional optionalDependencies: Record<string, string>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:224

If a dependency can be used, but you would like npm to proceed if it cannot be found or fails to install, then you may put it in the optionalDependencies object. This is a map of package name to version or url, just like the dependencies object. The difference is that build failures do not cause installation to fail.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.optionalDependencies

os?

ts
optional os: string[];

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:309

You can specify which operating systems your module will run on:

json
{
  "os": ["darwin", "linux"]
}

You can also block instead of allowing operating systems, just prepend the blocked os with a '!':

json
{
  "os": ["!win32"]
}

The host operating system is determined by process.platform It is allowed to both block and allow an item, although there isn't any good reason to do this.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.os

packageJsonPath

ts
packageJsonPath: string

Defined in: src/utils/package.ts:10


packageManager?

ts
optional packageManager: string;

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.packageManager

peerDependencies?

ts
optional peerDependencies: Record<string, string>;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:228

In some cases, you want to express the compatibility of your package with a host tool or library, while not necessarily doing a require of this host. This is usually referred to as a plugin. Notably, your module may be exposing a specific interface, expected and specified by the host documentation.

Inherited from

ts
PackageJson.peerDependencies

private?

ts
optional private: boolean;

Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/pkg-types@2.3.0/node_modules/pkg-types/dist/index.d.mts:171

executableFiles?
ts
optional executableFiles: string[];

pnpm-only

By default, for portability reasons, no files except those listed in the bin field will be marked as executable in the resulting package archive. The executableFiles field lets you declare additional fields that must have the executable flag (+x) set even if they aren't directly accessible through the bin field.
