title: npm-fund
section: 1
description: Retrieve funding information
---
### Synopsis
```bash
npm fund [<package-spec>]
```
### Description
This command retrieves information on how to fund the dependencies of a given project.
If no package name is provided, it will list all dependencies that are looking for funding in a tree structure, listing the type of funding and the url to visit.
If a package name is provided then it tries to open its funding url using the [`--browser` config](/using-npm/config#browser) param; if there are multiple funding sources for the package, the user will be instructed to pass the
`--which` option to disambiguate.
The list will avoid duplicated entries and will stack all packages that share the same url as a single entry.
Thus, the list does not have the same shape of the output from `npm ls`.
#### Example
### Workspaces support
It's possible to filter the results to only include a single workspace and its dependencies using the [`workspace` config](/using-npm/config#workspace) option.
#### Example:
Here's an example running `npm fund` in a project with a configured workspace `a`:
```bash
$ npm fund
test-workspaces-fund@1.0.0
+-- https://example.com/a
| | `-- a@1.0.0
| `-- https://example.com/maintainer
| `-- foo@1.0.0
+-- https://example.com/npmcli-funding
| `-- @npmcli/test-funding
`-- https://example.com/org
`-- bar@2.0.0
```
And here is an example of the expected result when filtering only by a specific workspace `a` in the same project:
```bash
$ npm fund -w a
test-workspaces-fund@1.0.0
`-- https://example.com/a
| `-- a@1.0.0
`-- https://example.com/maintainer
`-- foo@2.0.0
```
### Configuration
#### `json`
* Default: false
* Type: Boolean
Whether or not to output JSON data, rather than the normal output.
* In `npm pkg set` it enables parsing set values with JSON.parse() before
saving them to your `package.json`.
Not supported by all npm commands.
#### `browser`
* Default: macOS: `"open"`, Windows: `"start"`, Others: `"xdg-open"`
* Type: null, Boolean, or String
The browser that is called by npm commands to open websites.
Set to `false` to suppress browser behavior and instead print urls to
terminal.
Set to `true` to use default system URL opener.
#### `unicode`
* Default: false on windows, true on mac/unix systems with a unicode locale,
as defined by the `LC_ALL`, `LC_CTYPE`, or `LANG` environment variables.
* Type: Boolean
When set to true, npm uses unicode characters in the tree output. When
false, it uses ascii characters instead of unicode glyphs.
#### `workspace`
* Default:
* Type: String (can be set multiple times)
Enable running a command in the context of the configured workspaces of the
current project while filtering by running only the workspaces defined by
this configuration option.
Valid values for the `workspace` config are either:
* Workspace names
* Path to a workspace directory
* Path to a parent workspace directory (will result in selecting all
workspaces within that folder)
When set for the `npm init` command, this may be set to the folder of a
workspace which does not yet exist, to create the folder and set it up as a
brand new workspace within the project.
This value is not exported to the environment for child processes.
#### `which`
* Default: null
* Type: null or Number
If there are multiple funding sources, which 1-indexed source URL to open.
