A list of all the public package names on npm. The list is just a JSON file and can be used wherever.
- Includes scoped packages.
- Sorted by dependent count.
- Uses npm's replicate.npmjs.com service.
- Updated every 8 hours.
npm install all-the-package-names
const names = require('all-the-package-names')
// Most-depended-on names are first. See what's popular!
names.slice(0, 5)
/*
[
'mocha',
'chai',
'lodash',
'grunt',
'eslint'
]
*/
names.includes('superagent')
// => true
names.includes('crazy-new-package-name')
// => false
names.length
// => 286289
names.filter(name => name.includes('banana'))
// => [ 'banana', 'banana-banana', 'banana-split', ...]

Note that while mixed-case package names are no longer allowed to be published to the npm registry, there are over 2800 legacy mixed-case packages, many of which have the same spelling as other existing lowercase packages. See nice-registry/mixed-case-package-names for the full list.
To avoid the mixed-case names when working with this data, just filter them out:
const names = require('all-the-package-names').filter(name => name === name.toLowerCase())
