verdaccio allows you protect publish, to achieve that you will need to set up correctly your packages acces.

Package configuration

Let's see for instance the following set up. You have a set of dependencies what are prefixed with my-company-* and you need to protect them from anonymous or another logged user without right credentials.

  'my-company-*':
    access: admin teamA teamB teamC
    publish: admin teamA
    proxy: npmjs

With this configuration, basically we allow to groups admin and teamA to * publish* and teamA teamB teamC access to such dependencies.

Use case: teamD try to access the dependency

So, if I am logged as teamD. I shouldn't be able to access all dependencies that match with my-company-* pattern.

➜ npm whoami
teamD

I won't have access to such dependencies and also won't be visible via web for user teamD. If I try to access the following will happen.

➜ npm install my-company-core
npm ERR! code E403
npm ERR! 403 Forbidden: webpack-1@latest

or with yarn

➜ yarn add my-company-core
yarn add v0.24.6
