-npm-cache(1) -- Manipulates packages cache
-==========================================
-
-## SYNOPSIS
-
- npm cache add <tarball file>
- npm cache add <folder>
- npm cache add <tarball url>
- npm cache add <name>@<version>
-
- npm cache ls [<path>]
-
- npm cache clean [<path>]
-
-## DESCRIPTION
-
-Used to add, list, or clear the npm cache folder.
-
-* add:
- Add the specified package to the local cache. This command is primarily
- intended to be used internally by npm, but it can provide a way to
- add data to the local installation cache explicitly.
-
-* ls:
- Show the data in the cache. Argument is a path to show in the cache
- folder. Works a bit like the `find` program, but limited by the
- `depth` config.
-
-* clean:
- Delete data out of the cache folder. If an argument is provided, then
- it specifies a subpath to delete. If no argument is provided, then
- the entire cache is cleared.
-
-## DETAILS
-
-npm stores cache data in `$HOME/.npm`. For each package that is added
-to the cache, three pieces of information are stored in
-`{cache}/{name}/{version}`:
-
-* .../package/:
- A folder containing the package contents as they appear in the tarball.
-* .../package.json:
- The package.json file, as npm sees it, with overlays applied and a _id attribute.
-* .../package.tgz:
- The tarball for that version.
-
-Additionally, whenever a registry request is made, a `.cache.json` file
-is placed at the corresponding URI, to store the ETag and the requested
-data.
-
-Commands that make non-essential registry requests (such as `search` and
-`view`, or the completion scripts) generally specify a minimum timeout.
-If the `.cache.json` file is younger than the specified timeout, then
-they do not make an HTTP request to the registry.
-
-## CONFIGURATION
-
-### cache
