npm 安装的缓存包

Question

npm install hangs for a long time trying to fetch a file from npm registry https://registry.npmjs.org/-/npm/v1/security/advisories/bulk , is there any way to cache this file to speed up this process? I'd install the security package globally but from the log output, it doesn't show the package name (I'm pasting below part of the log of interest).

I'm building a node project on an Azure Pipeline in a private host. When the Job Task to install npm packages runs the Azure Agent most likely kills the process because it's taking too long failing the pipeline.

Here is a blog you can refer to, you can get help from it.

You can use the caching solution from Microsoft DevLabs . Add the task before the npm install. The first run takes longer, because the cache needs to be saved.

Node modules caching in Azure DevOps will reduce your pipeline run duration when your solution relies on node packages.

To speed up first npm install, as a workaround, we could use yarn install or pnpm install -88% + 80% faster than npm install. For details, please refer to this blog .
