Login into npm from the non-interactive CLI
npm install npm-login-with-paramA simple script to login into npm from the command line, in case you don't have
an interactive shell, expect or anything fancy. This package extends the great work Arian Stolwijk did by allowing you to provide parameters to the login process. Very handy for docker builds
With parameters
``
npx npm-login-with-param -u john -p secret -e john@test.com
or
`
npx npm-login-with-param --username john --password secret --email john@test.com
With environment variables
`bash`
export NPM_USER=john
export NPM_PASS=secret
export NPM_EMAIL=john@example.com
npx npm-login-with-param
If you are using the npm CLI version 9.0 or greater and you are logging in to a private registry--auth-type=legacy
you will almost certainly need to use the option of npm.
See: npm login auth-type
To use --auth-type with this simple script, use a space and not an equal sign:
` bash``
npx npm-login-with-param --auth-type legacy --username john --password secret --email john@test.com
It's a simple child process that reads/writes from/to the stdout/stdin.
