yarn list --depth 0 list all installed dependencies in node_modules beside in package.json

I need yarn list able to list only installed dependencies in package.json

node.js version 6.10.3 macOS Sierra 10.12.5

Thanks for your request but it is not clear what you want could you provide an example?
I'll close for now but feel free to reopen with more info.

I believe they are looking for behavior like npm list --depth 0 where it only lists the explicit dependencies.

$ cat package.json
{
    "name": "shine",
    "private": true,
    "dependencies": {
        "@rails/webpacker": "^3.0.1",
        "bootstrap": "3"
    },
    "devDependencies": {
        "webpack-dev-server": "^2.7.1"
    }
}

$ npm list --depth 0
shine@ <current working directory>
+-- @rails/webpacker@3.0.1
+-- bootstrap@3.3.7
`-- webpack-dev-server@2.7.1

vs

$ yarn list --depth 0 | wc -l
745

I personally find it more useful when doing npm --global list since there is no package.json to cat to see all the global scripts.

@soobrakay What you stated is exactly what I'm looking for. The OP may have not been super clear, but I think it would be quite useful to get a full list of only the installed versions of packages explicitly listed in package.json.

The default behavior right now seems cluttered and confusing. Because nested dependencies are hoisted in most scenarios, the --depth=0 doesn't really provide any selective information and instead just lists pretty much all packages on the system. I think there should be a flag that filters the list to only what is explicitly shown in package.json. It might also be nice to have an option to format it in the same way the outdated command works, but show all packages listed in package.json instead of only those out of date.

Please reopen this, or provide an alternative way to list only the installed packages as @soobrakay points out. The current behavior is useless in a flattened package manager.

any news about this?

​Oddly enough, npm ls --depth 0 works on ​a yarn managed repo!

node v8.9.3
npm 5.5.1
yarn 1.3.2

Another oddity: in my repo, this:ls node_modules/ava produces:

master: ls node_modules/ava
api.js		index.js.flow	node_modules	readme.md
cli.js		lib		package.json	types
index.js	license		profile.js

yet ls node_modules produces the flat list of directories.

Ok, let's reopen the issue, looks like enough people want it.
The command is quite easy to modify, so go ahead and send a PR, the code is here https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/blob/master/src/cli/commands/list.js
