standalone ci-oriented package installer for npm projects (moved)

NOTE: This repository has moved to https://github.com/npm/libcipm

libcipm installs npm projects in a way that's optimized for continuous integration/deployment/etc scenarios. It gives up the ability to build its own trees or install packages individually, as well as other user-oriented features, in exchange for speed, and being more strict about project state.

For documentation about the associated command-line tool, see cipm.

Install

$ npm install libcipm

Features

• npm-compatible project installation
• lifecycle script support
• blazing fast
• npm-compatible caching
• errors if package.json and package-lock.json are out of sync, instead of fixing it like npm does. Essentially provides a --frozen install.
