DevOps Exercises

Working with Nexus repositories.

Scenarios

• As a developer, I want to publish my npm package so that other users within my organization can use it.
• As an admin, I want to expose both, private and public repositories as a single registry for my users.
• As a developer, I want to include organization code into my projects.

Setup

1. Create a local storage for nexus, mkdir nexus-data
2. Change the ownership of the nexus-data folder chown -R 200:200 nexus-data

Run the services

1. Use Compose to execute the service docker-compose up
2. Grab the password from /nexus-data/admin.password
3. Navigate to local nexus dashboard
4. Login as admin (using the password you got from point 2)

Configure NPM Repositories

By following the official guide you should create the following structure:

1. A proxy NPM repository.
2. A private repository to host your private packages (see in the example folder the npm-publish).
3. A group repository to expose both, private and proxy repositories to your users.
