ProGet: NPM connector returns no records

At a customer we are using ProGet as our internal package manager server. ProGet supports a lot of different package formats including NPM and NuGet. Thanks to the usage of connectors you can even link to other package sources like the official NuGet feed or the official NPM registry.

Unfortunately after creating an NPM feed and linking it to the official NPM registry(https://registry.npmjs.org) using a connector, the connector didn’t do anything and our feed remained empty.

Turns out that a scheduled task exists that indexes the Npm registry but it only runs once a week by default.

To find this scheduled task, go to your Proget site and click on the Administration icon image on the right

After logging in, go to Scheduled Tasks below System settings

In the list of Scheduled Tasks you should find the ‘FullNpmConnectorIndex’ task. You can invoke it immediatelly by clicking on the ‘Play’ button at the right.

A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
