152<p>The <code>npm sbom</code> command generates a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) listing the
153dependencies for the current project. SBOMs can be generated in either
154<a href="https://spdx.dev/">SPDX</a> or <a href="https://cyclonedx.org/">CycloneDX</a> format.</p>

345<h4 id="omit"><code>omit</code></h4>
346<ul>
347<li>Default: 'dev' if the <code>NODE_ENV</code> environment variable is set to
348'production', otherwise empty.</li>
349<li>Type: "dev", "optional", or "peer" (can be set multiple times)</li>
350</ul>
351<p>Dependency types to omit from the installation tree on disk.</p>
352<p>Note that these dependencies <em>are</em> still resolved and added to the
353<code>package-lock.json</code> or <code>npm-shrinkwrap.json</code> file. They are just not
354physically installed on disk.</p>
355<p>If a package type appears in both the <code>--include</code> and <code>--omit</code> lists, then
356it will be included.</p>
357<p>If the resulting omit list includes <code>'dev'</code>, then the <code>NODE_ENV</code> environment
358variable will be set to <code>'production'</code> for all lifecycle scripts.</p>
359<h4 id="package-lock-only"><code>package-lock-only</code></h4>
360<ul>
361<li>Default: false</li>
362<li>Type: Boolean</li>
363</ul>
364<p>If set to true, the current operation will only use the <code>package-lock.json</code>,
365ignoring <code>node_modules</code>.</p>
366<p>For <code>update</code> this means only the <code>package-lock.json</code> will be updated,
367instead of checking <code>node_modules</code> and downloading dependencies.</p>
368<p>For <code>list</code> this means the output will be based on the tree described by the
369<code>package-lock.json</code>, rather than the contents of <code>node_modules</code>.</p>
370<h4 id="sbom-format"><code>sbom-format</code></h4>
371<ul>
372<li>Default: null</li>
373<li>Type: "cyclonedx" or "spdx"</li>

375<p>SBOM format to use when generating SBOMs.</p>
376<h4 id="sbom-type"><code>sbom-type</code></h4>
377<ul>
378<li>Default: "library"</li>
379<li>Type: "library", "application", or "framework"</li>
380</ul>
381<p>The type of package described by the generated SBOM. For SPDX, this is the

383value for the <code>type</code> field.</p>

385<ul>
386<li>Default:</li>
387<li>Type: String (can be set multiple times)</li>
388</ul>
389<p>Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
390current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
391this configuration option.</p>
392<p>Valid values for the <code>workspace</code> config are either:</p>
393<ul>
394<li>Workspace names</li>
395<li>Path to a workspace directory</li>
396<li>Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
397workspaces within that folder)</li>
398</ul>
399<p>When set for the <code>npm init</code> command, this may be set to the folder of a
400workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
401brand new workspace within the project.</p>
402<p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
403<h4 id="workspaces"><code>workspaces</code></h4>
404<ul>
405<li>Default: null</li>
406<li>Type: null or Boolean</li>
407</ul>
408<p>Set to true to run the command in the context of <strong>all</strong> configured
409workspaces.</p>
410<p>Explicitly setting this to false will cause commands like <code>install</code> to
411ignore workspaces altogether. When not set explicitly:</p>
412<ul>
413<li>Commands that operate on the <code>node_modules</code> tree (install, update, etc.)
414will link workspaces into the <code>node_modules</code> folder. - Commands that do
415other things (test, exec, publish, etc.) will operate on the root project,
416<em>unless</em> one or more workspaces are specified in the <code>workspace</code> config.</li>
417</ul>
418<p>This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.</p>
