You can also pass --json to return the report in JSON format,
--svg to return the report in SVG format, or
--dot to return the report in Graphviz DOT format.
Use --production to return only dependencies and not devDependencies and
--output to save a file (.json or .svg) for generated report.

If you want to filter the output you can use
--certified to show only certified packages or
--failed to show only packages that failed certification.

You can also pass --all to add all the packages to the whitelist and --json to return the packages in a JSON format.

nscm whitelist add

Add a package and its dependencies to the whitelist.

nscm whitelist delete

Delete a package from the whitelist.

$ nscm whitelist delete debug

nscm whitelist list
