 | 
						|
## Requirements
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To work with the npm package registry, you need [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) coupled with a package manager such as [Yarn](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install) or [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm/) itself.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The registry supports [scoped](https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scope/) and unscoped packages.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The following examples use the `npm` tool with the scope `@test`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Configuring the package registry
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To register the package registry you need to configure a new package source.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm config set {scope}:registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/npm/
 | 
						|
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/npm/:_authToken' "{token}"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
| Parameter    | Description |
 | 
						|
| ------------ | ----------- |
 | 
						|
| `scope`      | The scope of the packages. |
 | 
						|
| `owner`      | The owner of the package. |
 | 
						|
| `token`      | Your [personal access token]({{< relref "doc/developers/api-usage.en-us.md#authentication" >}}). |
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm config set @test:registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/
 | 
						|
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/:_authToken' "personal_access_token"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
or without scope:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm config set registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/
 | 
						|
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/:_authToken' "personal_access_token"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Publish a package
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Publish a package by running the following command in your project:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm publish
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You cannot publish a package if a package of the same name and version already exists. You must delete the existing package first.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install a package
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To install a package from the package registry, execute the following command:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm install {package_name}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
| Parameter      | Description |
 | 
						|
| -------------- | ----------- |
 | 
						|
| `package_name` | The package name. |
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm install @test/test_package
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Tag a package
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The registry supports [version tags](https://docs.npmjs.com/adding-dist-tags-to-packages/) which can be managed by `npm dist-tag`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm dist-tag add {package_name}@{version} {tag}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
| Parameter      | Description |
 | 
						|
| -------------- | ----------- |
 | 
						|
| `package_name` | The package name. |
 | 
						|
| `version`      | The version of the package. |
 | 
						|
| `tag`          | The tag name. |
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For example:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```shell
 | 
						|
npm dist-tag add test_package@1.0.2 release
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The tag name must not be a valid version. All tag names which are parsable as a version are rejected.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Supported commands
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
npm install
 | 
						|
npm ci
 | 
						|
npm publish
 | 
						|
npm dist-tag
 | 
						|
npm view
 | 
						|
```
