Define private registry in package.json

We have a private npm repository based on Sinopia

What should I define in package.json that some packages will be installed from Synopia rather then from global npm repository?

If I install it from command line I can run: npm install <package_name> --registry <http://<server:port>

P.S. tried to google and looked in official NPM documentation but have found nothing.

Solution

  • One of the method i know that is by .npmrc You can also use .npmrc also inside the project

    set configuration like this

    registry = http://10.197.142.28:8081/repository/npm-internal/
init.author.name = Himanshu sharma
init.author.email = [email protected]
init.author.url = http://blog.example.com
# an email is required to publish npm packages
[email protected]
always-auth=true
_auth=YWRtaW46YWRtaW4xMjM=

    auth can be generate by username:password echo -n 'admin:admin123' | openssl base64

    output YWRtaW46YWRtaW4xMjM=
