## What's a registry? {#whats-a-registry}
|
|
|
|
* A registry is a repository for packages, that implements the **CommonJS Compliant Package Registry specification** for reading package's information.
|
|
* Provide a compatible API with npm clients **(yarn/npm/pnpm)**.
|
|
* Semantic Versioning compatible **(semver)**.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$> verdaccio
|
|
```
|

## Using Verdaccio {#using-verdaccio}
|
|
|
|
Using Verdaccio with any Node.js package manager client is quite straightforward.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use a custom registry either by setting it globally for all your projects
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm set registry http://localhost:4873
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or by using it in command line as an argument `--registry` in npm (slightly different in yarn)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install lodash --registry http://localhost:4873
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn config set registry http://localhost:4873
|
|
```
|
|
