switching npm registry based on directory

Question

I have recently started developing for node. The company that I work for has an internal npm registry. I want to know how to use different registry settings depending upon where

Answer 1

Registry should only be needed when you're installing packages. You can use this when you wish to install from the private registry.

npm install packagename --registry https://myregistryurl

This may work too..

npm install https://myregistryurl/packagename

and just install the normal way when you're using the public registry.
