<h2 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<pre><code>npm explore &lt;name&gt;[@&lt;version&gt;] [ -- &lt;cmd&gt;]</code></pre>
<h2 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>Spawn a subshell in the directory of the installed package specified.</p>
<p>If a command is specified, then it is run in the subshell, which then
immediately terminates.</p>
<p>This is particularly handy in the case of git submodules in the
<code>node_modules</code> folder:</p>
<pre><code>npm explore some-dependency -- git pull origin master</code></pre>
<p>Note that the package is <em>not</em> automatically rebuilt afterwards, so be
sure to use <code>npm rebuild &lt;pkg&gt;</code> if you make any changes.</p>
