# npm-user

> Get user info of an npm user

Since npm has no API for this, we are forced to scrape the [profile page](https://www.npmjs.com/~sindresorhus).

*Use the faster [npm-email](https://github.com/sindresorhus/npm-email) package if you only need the email.*

## Install

```sh
npm install npm-user
```

## Usage

```js
import npmUser from 'npm-user';

console.log(await npmUser('sindresorhus'));
/*
{
name: 'Sindre Sorhus',
avatar: 'https://www.npmjs.com/npm-avatar/…',
email: '[email protected]',
github: 'sindresorhus',
twitter: 'sindresorhus'
}
*/
```

*The values will be `undefined` if they're not set in the npm profile.*
