# npm-prefix(1)
|

|
|
||
|
## Display prefix
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Synopsis
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
npm prefix [-g]
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Description
|
||
|
|
||
|
Print the local prefix to standard out. This is the closest parent directory
|
||
|
to contain a `package.json` file or `node_modules` directory, unless `-g` is
|
||
|
also specified.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If `-g` is specified, this will be the value of the global prefix. See
|
||
|
[`npm config`](/cli-commands/npm-config) for more detail.
