How to switch from default npmjs repo to Artifactory repo in Angular project

I'm developing an Angular application and until now I have been using the default npm repository (registry.npmjs.org). Now I need to switch to using Artifactory and update my project accordingly.

I already changed the registry with:

 npm config set registry (myArtifactoryRemoteRepoURL)

Then, after deleting the nodes_module folder I ran the npm install command:

 npm i

I also tried:

 npm i --package-lock

The modules are still loaded from the default npmjs registry. I guess this is because in the package-lock.json the dependencies are still resolved to default repo URLs. So I would probably have to update the package-lock.json somehow.

Solution

  • You can delete the package-lock.json file entirely (and the node_modules as well). Those will be regenerated when you run npm install.
