What is NPM's package-lock.json?

It just kind of turned up uninvited.

Turns out that npm adds this file automagically, to represent the versions of all the packages installed in node_modules.

For years I've had the lock file my project and finally bit to bullet to try and understand what it is. This video couldn't make it any clearer. Thank you so much!

This way you presented this video is incredible; incredibly informative & clear and straight to the point - in 3 mins you answered all my questions better than all the stack overflow questions I've read over the last few years. Incredible channel 🙏

Great video, you explained it so accurately. Cleared a lot of blur about the package-lock json file. You should make more videos.

Great explanation! It seems like the lock also includes the versions of the sub dependencies as well

Hi @Tom, I am using yarn in my project and got yarn.lock file. Still the project does not build up when I tried building with "yarn build" command which was actually building earlier.

Awesome bro, I watched some videos on the same and thought of the same question why would ^ be in the package.json and lock.jason file exist together but no one mentioned the same except you.

Should we ever delete lock file? How will it affect dependencies ?

Amazing content !😊

But what about the fact package-lock.json also has ~ and ^?
It would just then NOT install the exact version of packages...

Why didn't npm just change the functionality of "npm install"... which installs and automatically updates
... to just "install"... without the automatic update

And if you want to update the packages... you use the "npm update" command
... like you do now?

I don't get it.

I know lock files from the various package managers of Ruby, Python and NodeJS.
A similar functionality exists for Gradle (Locking dependency versions in the user guide). Why seems to be so little talk about that? Why don't you - as the Gradle guy - talk about it or mention the parallels in this video?
Are the other Gradle mechnisms prefered over locking dependencies? I honestly don't understand why this feature seems to be so unpopular for Gradle.
