# Installation
## Distribution channels
### NPM Registry
We publish single module to npm: [swagger-client](https://www.npmjs.com/package/swagger-client).
`swagger-client` is meant for consumption by any JavaScript engine (node.js, browser, etc...).
The npm package contains transpiled and minified ES5 compatible code.
```shell script
$ npm install swagger-client
```
**Increasing installation speed:**
`swagger-client` integrates with [ApiDOM](https://github.com/swagger-api/apidom) and use it
as a direct dependency. Some transitive dependencies of ApiDOM are [optional](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/configuring-npm/package-json#optionaldependencies),
which means we can use [override package.json field](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/configuring-npm/package-json#overrides)
to speed up the installation:
```json
"overrides": {
"@swagger-api/apidom-reference": {
"@swagger-api/apidom-ns-asyncapi-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-ns-openapi-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-api-design-systems-json": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-api-design-systems-yaml": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-asyncapi-json-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-asyncapi-yaml-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-json": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-json-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-yaml-2": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-json-3-0": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-json-3-1": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-yaml-3-0": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-openapi-yaml-3-1": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-workflows-json-1": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-workflows-yaml-1": "npm:-@0.0.1",
"@swagger-api/apidom-parser-adapter-yaml-1-2": "npm:-@0.0.1"
}
}
```
> NOTE 1: Above override uses [empty npm package called "-"](https://www.npmjs.com/package/-) to override optional ApiDOM transitive dependencies.
> NOTE 2: When ApiDOM optional dependencies fail to install, you can safely ignore it as `swagger-client` can work without these optional dependencies.
After installed successfully:
