<p>So sad to see you go.</p> |

|
| 15 |
<pre><code>sudo npm uninstall npm -g</code></pre> |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
<p>Or, if that fails, get the npm source code, and do:</p> |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
<pre><code>sudo make uninstall</code></pre> |

| 23 |
<p>Usually, the above instructions are sufficient. That will remove
|
| 24 |
npm, but leave behind anything you've installed.</p> |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
<p>If that doesn't work, or if you require more drastic measures, |
| 27 |
continue reading.</p>
|
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
<p>Note that this is only necessary for globally-installed packages. Local
|
| 30 |
installs are completely contained within a project's <code>node_modules</code> |
| 31 |
folder. Delete that folder, and everything is gone (unless a package's
|
| 32 |
install script is particularly ill-behaved).</p>
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
<p>This assumes that you installed node and npm in the default place. If
|
| 35 |
you configured node with a different <code>--prefix</code>, or installed npm with a |
| 36 |
different prefix setting, then adjust the paths accordingly, replacing |
| 37 |
<code>/usr/local</code> with your install prefix.</p> |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
<p>To remove everything npm-related manually:</p> |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
<pre><code>rm -rf /usr/local/{lib/node{,/.npm,_modules},bin,share/man}/npm*</code></pre> |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
<p>If you installed things <em>with</em> npm, then your best bet is to uninstall |
| 44 |
them with npm first, and then install them again once you have a |
| 45 |
proper install. This can help find any symlinks that are lying |
| 46 |
around:</p>
|
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
<pre><code>ls -laF /usr/local/{lib/node{,/.npm},bin,share/man} | grep npm</code></pre> |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
<p>Prior to version 0.3, npm used shim files for executables and node
|
| 51 |
modules. To track those down, you can do the following:</p>
|
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
<pre><code>find /usr/local/{lib/node,bin} -exec grep -l npm \{\} \; ;</code></pre> |
| 54 |
|
