[gilmeir-arnac]

Report to slack on new package (or scope) releases to npm.

https://github.com/npm/registry/blob/main/docs/hooks/endpoints.md

Confirmed, no npm new release exists

Adding this to backlog

Hi @gilmeir-arnac do you know by any change if the endpoint is working? because I'm not even getting any response by doing something like as an example:

curl -X POST 'https://registry.npmjs.org/-/npm/v1/hooks/hook/' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "type": "package",
  "name": "react",
  "endpoint": "https://6a70ce29674a2fbe027ff18ebd5f6be5.m.pipedream.net",
  "secret": "fd752205-4f86-488c-9c08-a5d5e2a4e82d"
}'

and if I try to make a request using the component from Pipedream I get:

"status": 401,
"statusText": "Unauthorized",

in any case if you want to try the component is here #12149

By the way I also tried the suggestion in this PR npm/registry#31 and I got the following message in a html response

@jcortes I think the endpoints may require authentication with a username and password. https://github.com/npm/registry/blob/main/docs/user/authentication.md#how-to-authenticate

[jcortes]

Hi @michelle0927 I tried with basic auth and didn't work either

Update

Actually it worked with OTP number!

Seems like in order to make it work we need a paid individual or organizational npm account according to this blog https://blog.npmjs.org/post/145260155635/introducing-hooks-get-notifications-of-npm

If you have a paid individual or organizational npm account, you can start using hooks right now.

I've even tried with the CLI commands and didn't get any event notifications at all

@jcortes same here, that's why I was looking if pipedream has it 😉
Eventually I implemented it with periodic triggers in pipedream, it uses the datastore to cache the latest version it found and reported to slack.

with npm cli

npm view $PACKAGE_NAME@latest version

with node

import fetch from 'npm-registry-fetch';

const response = await fetch.json(`/${packageName}/latest`);
console.log(response.version);

You can lookup my project id proj_AVs3J6m.

Hi @gilmeir-arnac can you send me the shared link via slack please? my username is @jcortes in any case

[jcortes]

Hi @gilmeir-arnac I've just pushed the update so right now we have a source component (Trigger) named New Package Version which as you requested it's a polling trigger where we basically are fetching the package metadata to get the latest version creating an event whenever a new version is published, let me know if that works! cc @malexanderlim
