---title: npm-deprecatesection: 1description: Deprecate a version of a package--- ### Synopsis ```bashnpm deprecate <package-spec> <message>``` Note: This command is unaware of workspaces. ### Description This command will update the npm registry entry for a package, providing a deprecation warning to all who attempt to install it. It works on [version ranges](https://semver.npmjs.com/) as well as specific versions, so you can do something like this: ```bashnpm deprecate my-thing@"< 0.2.3" "critical bug fixed in v0.2.3"``` SemVer ranges passed to this command are interpreted such that they *do* include prerelease versions.For example: ```bashnpm deprecate my-thing@1.x "1.x is no longer supported"``` In this case, a version `my-thing@1.0.0-beta.0` will also be deprecated. You must be the package owner to deprecate something.See the `owner` and `adduser` help topics. To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string (`""`) for the `message` argument.Note that you must use double quotes with no space between them to format an empty string. ### Configuration #### `registry` * Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"* Type: URL The base URL of the npm registry. #### `otp` * Default: null* Type: null or String This is a one-time password from a two-factor authenticator. It's neededwhen publishing or changing package permissions with `npm access`. If not set, and a registry response fails with a challenge for a one-timepassword, npm will prompt on the command line for one. #### `dry-run` * Default: false* Type: Boolean Indicates that you don't want npm to make any changes and that it shouldonly report what it would have done. This can be passed into any of thecommands that modify your local installation, eg, `install`, `update`,`dedupe`, `uninstall`, as well as `pack` and `publish`. Note: This is NOT honored by other network related commands, eg `dist-tags`,`owner`, etc. ### See Also * [package spec](/using-npm/package-spec)* [npm publish](/commands/npm-publish)* [npm registry](/using-npm/registry)* [npm owner](/commands/npm-owner)* [npm adduser](/commands/npm-adduser)
