# npm-owner(3)

Manage package owners

## NAME

**npm-owner** - Manage package owners

## SYNOPSIS

```
npm.commands.owner(args, callback)
```

## DESCRIPTION

The first element of the ´args´ parameter defines what to do, and the subsequent elements depend on the action. Possible values for the action are (order of parameters are given in parenthesis):

- ls (package)

  List all the users who have access to modify a package and push new versions. Handy when you need to know who to bug for help.

- add (user, package)

  Add a new user as a maintainer of a package. This user is enabled to modify metadata, publish new versions, and add other owners.

- rm (user, package)

  Remove a user from the package owner list. This immediately revokes their privileges.

Note that there is only one level of access. Either you can modify a package, or you can´t. Future versions may contain more fine-grained access levels, but that is not implemented at this time.
