Meteor: How to list the installed packages

Question

I'm starting with Meteor, and I'd like to know how to list the installed packages.

meteor list would only list the available packages in the registry.

Edit: Since meteor 0.9.0.1 meteor list lists the available packages in the project.

@Bjørn Bråthen : Difference between `cat` and `list` is that `list` will provide version number of the package as well, whereas `cat` will just display contents of the packages file – M.A.Naseer Feb 26 '16 at 20:33
another way is to look at .meteor/versions since it will display also packages installed as dependencies from the packages you choose. Useful tip to remember for debugging. – guillim Jan 12 '18 at 18:15

I think it's just meteor list now (as of 0.9.0.1).

@jubobs *yes this provides an answer* – rpax Nov 27 '14 at 23:28
@Jubops my answer is correct. I have meteor 1.0 version and meteor list command lists the packages used by an application. I don't have enough reputation to post comment for starter's post. – Vasily Bezruchkin Nov 29 '14 at 03:31

You can also look into the ./meteor/packages file, which is a plain text file, all installed packages are listed in it.

You can check by typing meteor list on the command line on your project directory. Or, Browse into .meteor folder on your project directory and view the packages file with your favorite text editor.

If you want to list all the packages then you can go to .meteor/packages there you'll find all the packages installed.

For reference, you can check this

An advantage with using meteor list compared to look in .meteor/packages is that the version numbers is included in the list command and * marks outdated versions.

on command line windows or terminal type

meteor list. This command will list all the packages that you add to your project.
meteor list-platforms.Lists all of the platforms that have been explicitly added to your project.

On linux cd ~/meteor/packages or on windows search in .meteor/packages.and run command line meteor list If you haven't installed meteor-tools type meteor add windows:meteor-tool . You should read Meteor command line
