Automatically Update the package.json in NodeJS application

I have created the package.json using npm init. After some stage I installed few more modules as per the need.Rather than updating the package.json dependencies manually, is there any way to automatically update it??

For download the all packages configured in the package.json, use:

npm update --save

If I understand what you are asking correctly, you want to use npm to install a dependency and have that dependency automatically added to your package.json ?

If so, use --save after the package name : 

npm install [package name] --save
