11 Description
12 This command will update the npm registry entry for a package, provid‐
13 ing a deprecation warning to all who attempt to install it.
14
15 It works on version ranges https://semver.npmjs.com/ as well as spe‐
16 cific versions, so you can do something like this:
17
18 npm deprecate my-thing@"< 0.2.3" "critical bug fixed in v0.2.3"

21 the owner and adduser help topics.

23 To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string ("") for the message
24 argument. Note that you must use double quotes with no space between
25 them to format an empty string.
