I suppose if you want to have a standard, you could soft link $HOME/.exrc to a central file (e.g. /etc/exrc), making the central file read-only. To alter the settings, a user would need to:-
Code:
rm ~/.exrc
cat /etc/exrc > ~/.exrc

That would then copy, but cut them adrift from your standard settings and they could then change them as to their need.

Personally I think it's a terrible idea, but that is a way you could make it work.

If value is omitted, then it sets it to "true". get npm config get key Echo the config value to stdout. list npm config list Show all the config settings. Use -l to also show defaults. Use --json to show the settings in json format. delete npm config delete key Deletes the key from all configuration files. edit npm config edit Opens the config file in an editor.
