Main Features

  • Lightweight & Efficient
  • Fully Offline Functionality

  • Tags Filtering Supported
  • Supports projects since Node v10
  • Download results as CSV or JSON

Compatibility

This package is compatible with Node.js versions 10 through 22, as well as future versions.

The syntax remains consistent with the earlier version 1.0.0; however, it's advisable to always use the latest version, as it offers numerous new features and enhancements.

Installation

Install globally using npm:

npm install -g audit-export

Usage

The tool is packed with a help function to see the usage ways. To see it, just pass the --help option.

There are some breaking changes in the usage syntax between versions <=3 and >=4. See the upgrading guide.

The simplest usage is as the following:

npm audit --json | audit-export

But with more customizations you can use it in two different main ways:

npm audit --json | audit-export --path <path> --title <HTML_file_title>

or:

npm audit --json | audit-export <path>

For all options you can pass the --open parameter to automatically open the report in the default browser. The <path> part can be just a folder, just a file, or a folder with file path. Can be relative or full. It will work using the defaults when needed.

All parameters are optional.
By default it will use the current folder, "audit-report.html" as file name, and "NPM Audit Report" as title.

Usage syntax breaking changes

In versions lower or equal than 3, folder and file where separated parameters. After version 4 both were merged into a single --path parameter, that can be the folder, the file, or both. Previously it was --folder and --file, now removed parameters.
