* `npm profile set <property> <value>`:
Set the value of a profile property. You can set the following properties this way:
email, fullname, homepage, freenode, twitter, github
* `npm profile set password`:
Change your password. This is interactive, you'll be prompted for your
current password and a new password. You'll also be prompted for an OTP
if you have two-factor authentication enabled.
* `npm profile enable-2fa [auth-and-writes|auth-only]`:
Enables two-factor authentication. Defaults to `auth-and-writes` mode. Modes are:
* `auth-only`: Require an OTP when logging in or making changes to your
account's authentication. The OTP will be required on both the website
and the command line.
* `auth-and-writes`: Requires an OTP at all the times `auth-only` does, and also requires one when
publishing a module, setting the `latest` dist-tag, or changing access
via `npm access` and `npm owner`.
* `npm profile disable-2fa`:
Disables two-factor authentication.
### Details
All of the `npm profile` subcommands accept `--json` and `--parseable` and
will tailor their output based on those. Some of these commands may not be
available on non npmjs.com registries.
