npm.taobao.org https Certificate Expiration

• This thing has been expired for more than a day or two, all who used this mirror source will directly report error.
• Recently because of checking build failure issue, tinkered for several hours before realizing it’s certificate expired.
• At first thought it was my network problem, later found it’s the source problem.

Although this domain has been CNAME to registry.npmmirror.com, however when using npm, it won’t automatically jump to this new domain.

So, still build failure.

Solution

npm config set registry registry.npmmirror.com
npm config set registry registry.npmjs.org

If project root has .npmrc file, remember to change this file.

registry=https://registry.npmmirror.com

Remember

• Don’t overly rely on certain vendor’s services, especially domestic ones.
• Sometimes, better to directly use official source.
