NPM Package Downloader

NPM Package Downloader

Jan 27, 2022

Some of us working on a private network, in which we used tools like JFrog to maintain a "global" NPM artifactory on the network.

If we need a specific package, that doesn't exists on the company's artifactory, we need to "Whiten" it to the artifactory.

Now, I don't know about you, but I've been really struggling with downloading those packages. It can takes sometimes ages, and some of those tools are repeating downloading the same packages over and over again.

This package was created with really simple goals:

  • Efficient - No more downloading the same package + version over and over again

  • Resolve like NPM - I use pacote , the same package that NPM is using for resolving dependencies. Even if it takes longer sometimes with pacote, I want the package to be consistent with NPM.

  • Always Works - And this is where you come for help. If you have any problem, send me a message, even here. I'm available to help, in order to make the download experience easy and simple.
