salt.states.npm¶

Installation of NPM Packages¶

These states manage the installed packages for node.js using the Node Package Manager (npm). Note that npm must be installed for these states to be available, so npm states should include a requisite to a pkg.installed state for the package which provides npm (simply npm in most cases). Example:

npm:
  pkg.installed

yaml:
  npm.installed:
    - require:
      - pkg: npm
