<h1><a href="../api/npm-install.html">npm-install</a></h1> <p>install a package programmatically</p>
<h2 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm.commands.install([where,] packages, callback)</code></pre>
<h2 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>This acts much the same ways as installing on the command-line.</p>
<p>The &#39;where&#39; parameter is optional and only used internally, and it specifies
where the packages should be installed to.</p>
<p>The &#39;packages&#39; parameter is an array of strings. Each element in the array is
the name of a package to be installed.</p>
<p>Finally, &#39;callback&#39; is a function that will be called when all packages have been
installed or when an error has been encountered.</p>
