npm equivalent of yarn resolutions?

Is there an npm equivalent of the yarn resolutions functionality? There is no mention of it in the npm package.json docs.

For example, I want to install [email protected] and one of its dependencies (@lerna/publish) at 3.3.2 as well. Currently doing that with yarn like so, but would prefer to use npm and not manually change package-lock.json or anything dodgy like that.

"devDependencies": {
  "lerna": "3.3.2",
},
"resolutions": {
  "@lerna/publish": "3.3.2"
}

This does not seem to be supported by npm natively, however this package aims to add this functionality:
