22 ### Synopsis
23
24 ```bash
25 npm deprecate <pkg>[@<version>] <message>
26 ```
27
28 ### Description
29
30 This command will update the npm registry entry for a package, providing a deprecation warning to all who attempt to install it.
31
32 It works on [version ranges](https://semver.npmjs.com/) as well as specific versions, so you can do something like this:
33
34 ```bash
35 npm deprecate my-thing@"< 0.2.3" "critical bug fixed in v0.2.3"
36 ```
37
38 Note that you must be the package owner to deprecate something. See the `owner` and `adduser` help topics.
39
40 To un-deprecate a package, specify an empty string (`""`) for the `message` argument. Note that you must use double quotes with no space between them to format an empty string.
