### Synopsis

    npm shrinkwrap

Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.

### Description

This command repurposes `package-lock.json` into a publishable `npm-shrinkwrap.json` or simply creates a new one. The file created and updated by this command will then take precedence over any other existing or future `package-lock.json` files. For a detailed explanation of the design and purpose of package locks in npm, see package-lock-json.
