What is Verdaccio?

Verdaccio hosts your organisation's private npm packages and transparently proxies everything else from the public registry, caching what it fetches.

That gives you a place to publish internal packages and insulation from the public registry being slow, rate-limited or unavailable mid-build.

What you get

  • Publish and install private packages with the ordinary npm client
  • Uplink caching of the public registry, so repeat installs are local
  • Users, groups and per-package access rules
  • Works with npm, yarn and pnpm without special tooling

Running Verdaccio on Autogineer Cloud

Verdaccio is a one-click install here: choose it at checkout, set a root password, and the server is built, the software installed and configured, and published on its own HTTPS address — usually in about a minute, with the whole build streamed to your browser as it runs.

  • Installed and configured, not just downloaded. The build finishes only once Verdaccio is answering on its port with a real page — a server that could not finish is reported as failed rather than handed over looking complete.
  • A working HTTPS address from the first minute. Your server is published at an address like verdaccio-vps.autogineer.com, with a valid certificate, so webhooks and OAuth callbacks work immediately. Your own domain can be added afterwards.
  • Full root over SSH. The one-click install is a starting point, not a cage: you can reconfigure Verdaccio, install anything beside it, or replace it entirely.
  • Backups you can restore from. On-demand backups of the whole server on every paid plan, which for Verdaccio means its data as well as its configuration.
  • Room to grow. Resize the plan as Verdaccio grows, or rebuild the same server with a different app when the project changes.

Who it suits

Teams sharing internal packages, and CI pipelines that should not depend on the public registry being up.

Getting started with Verdaccio

  1. When the build finishes, your server's page in the dashboard shows its HTTPS address, its root password and any sign-in details the installer set for Verdaccio. The build console streams every step as it happens, so you can see exactly what was installed rather than taking it on trust.
  2. The registry answers immediately. Point npm at it, create a user with `npm adduser`, then publish a private package — anything not published here is fetched from the public registry and cached.
  3. Add your own domain from the same page when you are ready: point a DNS record at the server and the certificate is issued for you. The original address keeps working, so nothing you configured against it breaks.
  4. Take a backup once Verdaccio is configured the way you want it. A backup captures the whole server, so restoring one brings back Verdaccio and its data together — and it is the only thing that will bring them back.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to change my workflow?

Only the registry URL. `npm publish` and `npm install` behave normally against it.

What if Verdaccio is down?

Point the registry back at the public one for public packages. Private packages are only available from here, so back the server up.

How long does it take to install Verdaccio?

About a minute. Choosing Verdaccio at checkout builds the server, installs it, and publishes it on an HTTPS address, streaming the progress to your browser as it happens.

What size server does Verdaccio need?

At least 1 vCPU, 1.5 GB of memory and 20 GB of disk, which is the Starter plan or larger. These are the figures the installer is tested against rather than the smallest configuration that will boot.

Do I get root access to the server?

Yes. Every server includes full root access over SSH on its own port, so you can configure, extend or replace anything the one-click installer set up.

Can I use my own domain with Verdaccio?

Yes. Each server is published on its own HTTPS address the moment it is built — verdaccio-vps.autogineer.com for example, and you can point your own domain at it afterwards from the dashboard.
