I have a private npm module being installed from github private repo. That module has a dependency on "axios" module. So in package.json i have added it under dependency.

package.json of private module

 "name": "xxx",
 "version": "1.0.0",
 "description": "xxxx",
 "main": "index.js",
 "scripts": 
 "test": "echo "Error: no test specified" && exit 1"
 ,
 "repository": 
 "type": "git",
 "url": "git+https://github.com/xxxx/yyyy.git"
 ,
 "keywords": [
 "xxxx"
 ],
 "author": "xxxx",
 "license": "ISC",
 "bugs": 
 "url": "https://github.com/xxx"
 ,
 "homepage": "https://github.com/xxxxx#readme",
 "dependencies": 
 "axios": "latest"
 

I am using "axios" in my "index.js" also, so "axios" is listed as dependency in my root level "package.json"

package.json at root level

{
 "name": "my code",
 "version": "1.0.0",
 "description": "",
 "main": "index.js",
 "dependencies": 
 "axios": "^0.18.0",
 "xxx": "git+ssh://github.com/xxxx/yyyy.git",
 "scripts": 
 "test": "echo "Error: no test specified" && exit 1"
 ,
 "author": "",
 "license": "ISC"

Overall "axios" is listed as dependency in my project in 2 places.
When i execute npm install. "axios" is getting installed in two places.

1. node_modules in root level


2. node_modules present in the directory of xxx

This is how my project structure after executing npm install

Project

 +-- index.js
 | 
 +-- package.json
 |

 | +-- xxx

 | | | +-- axios // How to avoid axios getting installed here again and make
 it reuse the one in root level node_modules directory
