Project Modules

There are no modules declared in this project.

npm-registry-client

The code that npm uses to talk to the registry.

It handles all the caching and HTTP calls.

Usage

var RegClient = require('npm-registry-client')
var client = new RegClient(config)
var uri = "https://registry.npmjs.org/npm"
var params = {timeout: 1000}

client.get(uri, params, function (error, data, raw, res) {
  // error is an error if there was a problem.
  // data is the parsed data object
  // raw is the json string
  // res is the response from couch
})

Registry URLs

The registry calls take either a full URL pointing to a resource in the registry, or a base URL for the registry as a whole (including the registry path – but be sure to terminate the path with /). http and https URLs are the only ones supported.

Using the client

Every call to the client follows the same pattern:

  • uri {String} The fully-qualified URI of the registry API method being invoked.
  • params {Object} Per-request parameters.
  • callback {Function} Callback to be invoked when the call is complete.

Credentials

Many requests to the registry can be authenticated, and require credentials for authorization. These credentials always look the same:

  • username {String}
  • password {String}
  • email {String}
  • alwaysAuth {Boolean} Whether calls to the target registry are always authed.

or

  • token {String}
  • alwaysAuth {Boolean} Whether calls to the target registry are always authed.

Requests

As of npm-registry-client@8, all requests are made with an Accept header of application/vnd.npm.install-v1+json; q=1.0, application/json; q=0.8, */*.

This enables filtered document responses to requests for package metadata. You know that you got a filtered response if the mime type is set to application/vnd.npm.install-v1+json and not application/json.

This filtering substantially reduces the over all data size. For example for https://registry.npmjs.org/npm, the compressed metadata goes from 410kB to 21kB.

API

client.access(uri, params, cb)

  • uri {String} Registry URL for the package's access API endpoint. Looks like /-/package/<package name>/access.

The client uses its own configuration, which is just passed in as a simple nested object. The following are the supported values (with their defaults, if any):

  • proxy.http {URL} The URL to proxy HTTP requests through.

Also accepted are the existence of the JENKINS_URL, bamboo.buildKey and TDDIUM environment variables.
  • scope {String} The scope of the project this command is being run for. This is the top level npm module in which a command was run. Default = none
