npmgraph-cli

Command-line interface for launching the npmgraph web site to show module dependency graphs.

Please note that the npmgraph-cli does not render dependency graphs directly. It's simply a convenience (albeit a pretty powerful one) for opening npmgraph.js.org URLs in accordance with the npmgraph URL API.

Getting Started

To install:

npm install --global npmgraph-cli

To see command help:

npmgraph -h
