@qiwi/npm-types

The fork of npm/types that fixes the most vulnerabilities and brings deps from 2020

Typescript definitions for npm registry content

import * as npm from '@qiwi/npm-types';

const pkg = require('pacote');

pkg.packument('libnpm').then((obj: npm.Packument) => {
  console.log(obj.name, 'is the name of the package');
});

GOAL

Make it easier for typescript users to work with npm registry content!

Types should have comments so documentation on npm object properties can appear in vscode contextual popups.

• npm.Manifest
