NAME
np-explore- Browse an installed package
Synopsis
-
npm explore <pkg> [lB]- <command>[rB]
Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.
Description
Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.

This is particularly handy in the case of git submodules in the node_modules folder:
-
npm explore som-dependency- git pull origin master
Note that the package is not automatically rebuilt afterwards, so be sure to use npm rebuild <pkg> if you make any changes.
