npm-adduser(1) -- Add a registry user account
=============================================
## SYNOPSIS
npm adduser [--registry=url] [--scope=@orgname] [--always-auth] [--auth-type=legacy]
aliases: login, add-user
## DESCRIPTION
Create or verify a user named `<username>` in the specified registry, and
save the credentials to the `.npmrc` file. If no registry is specified,
the default registry will be used (see `npm-config(7)`).
The username, password, and email are read in from prompts.
To reset your password, go to <https://www.npmjs.com/forgot>
To change your email address, go to <https://www.npmjs.com/email-edit>
You may use this command multiple times with the same user account to
authorize on a new machine. When authenticating on a new machine,
the username, password and email address must all match with
your existing record.
`npm login` is an alias to `adduser` and behaves exactly the same way.
## CONFIGURATION
### registry
Default: https://registry.npmjs.org/
The base URL of the npm package registry. If `scope` is also specified,
this registry will only be used for packages with that scope. `scope` defaults
to the scope of the project directory you're currently in, if any. See `npm-scope(7)`.
### scope
Default: none
If specified, the user and login credentials given will be associated
with the specified scope. See `npm-scope(7)`. You can use both at the same time,
e.g.
npm adduser --registry=http://myregistry.example.com --scope=@myco
This will set a registry for the given scope and login or create a user for
that registry at the same time.
### always-auth
Default: false
If specified, save configuration indicating that all requests to the given
registry should include authorization information. Useful for private
registries. Can be used with `--registry` and / or `--scope`, e.g.
npm adduser --registry=http://private-registry.example.com --always-auth
This will ensure that all requests to that registry (including for tarballs)
include an authorization header. This setting may be necessary for use with
private registries where metadata and package tarballs are stored on hosts with
different hostnames. See `always-auth` in `npm-config(7)` for more details on
always-auth. Registry-specific configuration of `always-auth` takes precedence
over any global configuration.
### auth-type
* Default: `'legacy'`
* Type: `'legacy'`, `'sso'`, `'saml'`, `'oauth'`
What authentication strategy to use with `adduser`/`login`. Some npm registries
(for example, npmE) might support alternative auth strategies besides classic
username/password entry in legacy npm.
