npm-dependency-exclusion

This is a module for excluding dependencies in package-lock.json. It finds references to unwanted dependencies and removes them from inclusions.

Usage in package.json

You need to define a exclusions property containing the name of the excluded dependencies in your package.json:

{
  "name": "npm-dependency-exclusion",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "NPM utility command to exclude dependencies",
  "dependencies": {},
  "exclusions": {
    "lodash": "prod",
    "lodash.template": "any"
  }
}

Possible values for exclusions are prod, which removes dependencies that are required by other dependencies (but not devDependencies). And any which excludes dependencies from both dependencies and devDependencies.

CLI tool

Run the following command in the folder that contains your package.json file.

npx npm-dependency-exclusion
