用新的用户名和密码更新 vsts-npm-auth

Question

I have installed the vsts-npm-auth package using following command:

npm install -g vsts-npm-auth --registry https://registry.npmjs.com

And I ran vsts-npm-auth -config.npmrc command to set the credential but I am facing below error:

Now I need to update the credential but it always fetches the existing credential. Is there any way to send PUT request and update the credential?

Answer 1

I made it work with help of my colleague.

1. Uninstall vsts-npm-auth package
2. remove NPM cache
3. delete .npmrc file under Users folder

4. And re-run the below command with auth flag set to false. It will ask for the creds.

   npm install -g vsts-npm-auth --registry https://registry.npmjs.com --always-auth false
