## Synopsis

\<!-- AUTOGENERATED USAGE DESCRIPTIONS --\>

Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

## Description

This command repurposes **package-lock.json** into a publishable\
 **npm-shrinkwrap.json** or simply creates a new one. The file created and\
 updated by this command will then take precedence over any other existing\
 or future **package-lock.json** files. For a detailed explanation of the\
 design and purpose of package locks in npm, see\
