Copy all modules listed in dependencies
or/and devDependencies
field of package.json
to destination directory.
The procedure:
- Read
package.json
from source directory and readdependencies
ordevDependencies
field. - Search for existing modules and ther dependencies in source directory.
- Copy all modules to destination directory.
Modern applications use lots of modules, each module depends on more modules resulting in hundreds of modules being installed when typing npm install
. This module will help you to save time from slow npm install
when you want to pack/deploy your application to a directory which contains all needed modules.
It will save you a bunch of time to deploy a stand-alone application from existing development directory, no need to fetch all modules from remote repository.

-
srcDir
: source directory containingpackage.json
file. -
dstDir
: destination directory to copy modules to (modules will be copied todstDir/node_modules
directory). -
options
:packagePath
: path to package.json to use, maybe you have a custom dependencies define somewhere and you will like to copy the dependencies base on the package.json filedevDependencies
: boolean value, defaults to false, showing whether modules indevDependencies
field ofpackage.json
should also be copied (when it's set to true).concurrency
: integer value, max number of root packages whose files are being copied concurrently.filter
:RegExp
or function that accepts one value (the full path) and returns a boolean (copy on true).
-
callback(err, results)
: A callback which is called when all copy tasks have finished or error occurs,results
is an array contains copied modules, each item is an object as{name: 'xxx', version: 'xxx'}
