### Synopsis
```bash
npm rebuild [[<@scope>/]<name>[@<version>] ...]
alias: rb
```
### Description
This command runs the `npm build` command on the matched folders. This is
useful when you install a new version of node, and must recompile all your
C++ addons with the new binary. It is also useful when installing with
`--ignore-scripts` and `--no-bin-links`, to explicitly choose which
packages to build and/or link bins.
If one or more package names (and optionally version ranges) are provided,
then only packages with a name and version matching one of the specifiers
will be rebuilt.
