EDIT:

I update minimatch to 3.0.4, it's didin't resolve the problem.

Solution

  • An earlier outage involving a DNS misconfiguration has lead to some ISPs caching npmjs.com as missing, a workaround for this is to use a third party DNS provider such as Cloudflare or Google, the affected caches should clear within the next 24 hours.

    A workaround is to modify your hosts file:

    An alternative to using a different public DNS provider (like Google or CloudFlare) is to look up an IP address for www.npmjs.com and add it to your hosts file:

    1. To look up an IP for www.npmjs.com, either use Google Public DNS or the command line with dig and CloudFlare's DNS:

      dig www.npmjs.com @1.1.1.1

    2. Add the IP address to your /etc/hosts file.

    Please note: to avoid issues if the resolved IP address changes, we strongly advise that you remove this entry from your hosts file after the weekend.

    Instructions for the solution and a more detailed description are listed on the website npm.
