Is `npm install` same as `meteor npm install` in M

问题:

Going through some meteor libraries, I notice that npm install and meteor npm install are both used in instructions. I know Meteor 1.3 introduced support for npm modules, so what is the difference between these two commands?

回答1:

meteor npm install will place the node_modules folder at the root of your project and modify the package.json at the root of your meteor project.

While npm install will work relative to your current directory.

Source: Experience. I'm not 100% certain, but I have used them both a fair amount.

回答2:

meteor npm will run npm that has been bundled with meteor, this may be a different version than the version of npm installed globally on your system.

You can check versions like meteor npm -v and npm -v
