How to remove a Yeoman generator

问题:

I accidentally Installed a generator that I don't want.
I can't find any method to remove it.
What should I do to accomplish this?

回答1:

Generators are just normal npm modules, so you can remove it with

npm uninstall -g generator-[nameOfGenerator]

回答2:

npm uninstall -g [generator-name] might not fix the UNMET DEPENDENCY. If you won't mind to reinstall the affected modules:

1. cd to your npm directory (e.g. /usr/local/bin/node_modules)
2. rm -rf [generator-name]
3. npm cache clean
4. npm install -g [generator-name]

回答3:

Search for generators with

npm list -g --depth=0 | grep 'generator'

Remove generator with

npm uninstall -g [generator-name] 

NOTE: Don't include '@[version] ' that follows the generator name

I wanted to add something for posterity:

If you get an number of errors of class 'peerDependencies' for yeoman's generators, updating yo alone will not cut it - you need to remove all generators that throw the error and then reinstall whatever module lead to the trouble.

Unfortunately, as far as I ahve chekced, regex is not supported by npm.
