# all-the-package-names
*Maintained by [jsDelivr](https://github.com/jsdelivr). Please consider [becoming a sponsor](https://github.com/sponsors/jsdelivr) to support us.*
A list of all the public package names on npm.
- Includes scoped packages
- Updated daily
## Installation
```sh
npm install all-the-package-names --save
```
## Usage
The module exports a big flat array of package names:
```js
const names = require("all-the-package-names")
names.includes('superagent')
// => true
// Check if a given package name exists
names.includes('crazy-new-package-name')
// => false
names.length
// => 286289
names.filter(name => name.includes('banana'))
// => [ 'banana', 'banana-banana', 'banana-split', ...]
// Note: This example requires node 4 or greater because it uses
// const, arrow functions, and the `includes` array/string helper.
```
## CLI Usage
You can also use it on the command line. Newline-delimited names are piped to
STDOUT:
```sh
npm i -g all-the-package-names
all-the-package-names | grep spell
```
## ⚠️ Gotchas
Note that while mixed-case package names are no longer allowed to be published
to the npm registry, there are over 2800 legacy mixed-case packages, many of
which have the same spelling as other existing lowercase packages. See [nice-registry/mixed-case-package-names](https://github.com/nice-registry/mixed-case-package-names)
for the the full list.
To avoid the mixed-case names when working with this data,
just filter them out:
```js
const names = require('all-the-package-names')
.filter(name => name === name.toLowerCase())
```
## Tests
```sh
npm install
npm test
```
## Dependencies
None
