Hi Team

Currently we restrict to internet or public repository only use private repository.

we are not able to build the build the ui-frontend module because. 

frontend-maven-plugin required install node and npm which restricted. Kindly advise how refer the proxy local registry.

Here is Error:

C:\Users\userid\npmrc.txt 

always-auth=true

registry=http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/nexus/repository/Publicnpm/

Not sure how to check npmrc.txt  configuration working or not?

npmrc is the file type - it should not be .txt.

If you are using windows - check the Type in windows explorer, this should be NPMRC File.

To create .npmrc file, open a notepad , enter registry and proxy details, click on File Save As 

in save prompt - enter file name as --> .npmrc and 

Save as Type: All Files (*.*) - please note default it will be *.txt (Text document)

Hi Suresh

I had followed instructions (file name .npmrc instead of npmrc and type also npmrc not text) But still not taking proxy settings.

Please let me know how need make sure .npmrc details executed & any option check log taking values.
