Verdaccio stands for peace, stop the war, we will be yellow / blue 🇺🇦 until that happens.
Version 6 (Development branch)
Looking for Verdaccio 5 version? Check the branch 5.x
The plugins for the v5.x that are hosted within this organization are located
at the [verdaccio/monorepo](https://github.com/verdaccio/monorepo) repository, while for the v6.x
are hosted on this project ./packages/plugins, keep on mind v6.x plugins will eventually would be
incompatible with v5.x versions.
Note that contributing guidelines might be different based on the branch.
Verdaccio is a simple,
zero-config-required local private npm registry.
No need for an entire database just to get started! Verdaccio comes out of the box with
its own tiny database, and the ability to proxy other registries (eg. npmjs.org),
caching the downloaded modules along the way.
For those looking to extend their storage capabilities, Verdaccio
supports various community-made plugins to hook into services such as Amazon's s3,
Google Cloud Storage or create your own plugin.

What does Verdaccio do for me?
Use private packages
If you want to use all benefits of npm package system in your company without sending all code to the public, and use your private packages just as easy as public ones.
Cache npmjs.org registry
If you have more than one server you want to install packages on, you might want to use this to decrease latency
Link multiple registries
If you use multiples registries in your organization and need to fetch packages from multiple sources in one single project you might take advance of the uplinks feature with Verdaccio, chaining multiple registries and fetching from one single endpoint.
Override public packages
If you want to use a modified version of some 3rd-party package (for example, you found a bug, but maintainer didn't accept pull request yet), you can publish your version locally under the same name. See in detail
here.
E2E Testing
Verdaccio has proved to be a lightweight registry that can be
booted in a couple of seconds, fast enough for any CI. Many open source projects use verdaccio for end to end testing, to mention some examples,
create-react-app,
mozilla neutrino,
pnpm,
storybook,
babel.js,
angular-cli or
docusaurus. You can read more in
here.
Furthermore, here few examples how to start:

Get Started
Run in your terminal
You would need set some npm configuration, this is optional.
- ``` sh
- npm set registry http://localhost:4873/
- ```
For one-off commands or to avoid setting the registry globally:
- ``` sh
- NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY=http://localhost:4873 npm i
- ```
Publishing
1. create a user and log in
- ``` sh
- npm adduser --registry http://localhost:4873
- ```
if you use HTTPS, add an appropriate CA information ("null" means get CA list from OS)
2. publish your package
- ``` sh
- npm publish --registry http://localhost:4873
- ```
This will prompt you for user credentials which will be saved on the verdaccio server.
Docker
Below are the most commonly needed information,
- ```
- docker pull verdaccio/verdaccio:nightly-master
- ```
Running verdaccio using Docker
