pneumatic-tubes

Migrate from kappa, npm Enterprise Legacy, and npm Orgs, to npm Enterprise SaaS.

Installation

npm i -g pneumatic-tubes

Preparation

• Node.js 8+
• npm 5 - 5.6 (5.7+ are incompatible with npmE)
• run npm install
• login to your target registry if needed: npm --registry=<target-registry-url> login

Importing From Kappa

You need to point the import script at the CouchDB instance associated with your kappa proxy. The kappa proxy itself doesn't foward the _changes feed, so direct couch access is necessary.

Run:

pneumatic-tubes couch-import --source-couch-db=[couch-db-url]/_changes --target-registry=[target-registry-url]

Importing From Legacy npm Enterprise

Fetch Secret used between services from your npm Enterprise console.

Run:

pneumatic-tubes couch-import --source-couch-db=[couch-db-url]/_changes --target-registry=[target-registry-url] --shared-fetch-secret=[password-from-console]

You may pass a --scopes=@example parameter to limit the import to one (or more, if specified multiple times) scopes.

You may also skip specific semver ranges of specific packages by creating a text file and passing its path with --exceptions=exceptions.txt. Each line in this file must be the name of a package, followed by a space, followed by a semver range. For example:

@myorg/mypackage < 1.0.0
@myorg/packageidontwant *

Would cause pneumatic-tubes to skip any version of @myorg/mypackage before version 1.0.0 and all versions of @myorg/packageidontwant.

Importing From npm Orgs

1. Create an authorization token

To migrate from npm Orgs, you need an authorization token from the public registry.

1. visit https://www.npmjs.com.
2. in the account drop down in the upper right, choose the option "Tokens".
3. click "Create New Token", and copy this somewhere safe for later.

2. Create a text file containing the packages you wish to migrate

Note: you can only publish scoped modules to your private registry.

The text file should look something like this:

@babel/runtime
@babel/core
@babel/template

3. Login to your npm Enterprise Instance

npm config set registry https://registry.my-instance.npme.io
npm login

4. Create matching organization in npm Enterprise

You should create an organization in npm Enterprise that matches the name of the organization that you wish to migrate from in npm Orgs.

As an example, if you want to migrate from your organization @babel on the public registry, create an organization named babel in npm Enterprise.

5. Run the migration tool

It's now time to run the migration tool, using the token and text file that you generated.

Note: this will migrate all versions of your module.

pneumatic-tubes orgs-import --source-token=[redacted] --target-registry=https://registry..npme.io --migrate-file=migrate-file.txt

If the option --target-token is provided, upstream documents will be fetched and the tool will skip publishing duplicate packages.

Development

If you are making changes to pneumatic-tubes, you can test using a local kappa.

Run kappa in the foreground:

docker-compose up

OR

Run kappa in the background:

docker-compose up -d

When backgrounded, you can tail its logs thus (includes 20 lines of context):

docker logs --follow --tail 20 pneumatictubes_kappa_1
