registry-info

library1.0.0jsnpmunverified

Get npm registry information including URL, auth token, and authorization header from a given scope or default. Version 1.0.0. This is a small utility that combines registry-auth-token and registry-url to provide a unified API. It is useful for tooling that needs to interact with private npm registries. The package is mature and stable, with no recent updates. It supports both default registry and scoped registries. Alternative: directly using registry-auth-token and registry-url separately.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import registryInfo from 'registry-info'

✗ const registryInfo = require('registry-info')

Package uses ESM default export. CommonJS require() will work if the package is transpiled, but the default import is the intended pattern.

registryInfo

✓ import registryInfo from 'registry-info'

✗ import { registryInfo } from 'registry-info'

The function is the default export, not a named export.

type usage

✓ import registryInfo from 'registry-info'; const info = registryInfo();

✗ const { registryUrl, authToken, authorization } = require('registry-info')()

Call the function first, then destructure. The import is a function, not an object.

Demonstrates default import and usage with and without scope.

import registryInfo from 'registry-info'; // Get info for default registry const info = registryInfo(); console.log(info); // { registryUrl: 'https://registry.npmjs.org/', authToken: undefined, authorization: undefined } // Get info for a scoped registry (e.g. @myco) const scopedInfo = registryInfo('@myco'); console.log(scopedInfo); // { registryUrl: 'https://registry.myco.com/', authToken: '...', authorization: 'Bearer ...' }

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe function returns authToken and authorization as undefined if no auth is found. You may need to check for undefined before using.

fix

Check if authToken or authorization exist before using in headers: const { authorization } = registryInfo(); if (authorization) { headers['Authorization'] = authorization; }

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedThe 'registry-auth-token' dependency may have breaking changes in newer versions. Ensure compatible versions are used.

fix

Pin versions in package.json: "registry-auth-token": "3.x", "registry-url": "5.x"

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe package expects the npm token to be set in .npmrc or environment variables. If not set, authToken will be undefined.

fix

Set npm token: npm config set //registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=YOUR_TOKEN

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: registryInfo is not a function

Using named import instead of default import.

fix

Use `import registryInfo from 'registry-info'` instead of `import { registryInfo } from 'registry-info'`.

Cannot find module 'registry-info'

Package not installed in node_modules or path issue.

fix

Run `npm install registry-info --save` and ensure the package is in your dependencies.

registryInfo is not defined

Using CommonJS require without default assignment properly.

fix

Use `const registryInfo = require('registry-info').default;` or better switch to ES imports.
