feat: throw errors for invalid auth configuration (#92)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
BREAKING CHANGE: unscoped auth configuration is no longer automatically scoped to a registry. the `validate` method is no longer called automatically. the `_auth` configuration key is no longer split into `username` and `_password`. errors will be thrown by `validate()` if problems are found.

Verify that all known configuration options are set to valid values, and
log a warning if they are invalid.

Invalid auth options will cause this method to throw an error with a `code`
property of `ERR_INVALID_AUTH`, and a `problems` property listing the specific
concerns with the current configuration.

If `where` is not set, then all config objects are validated.

Returns `true` if all configs are valid.

`config.valid`, since each data object is marked for re-evaluation on every

### `config.repair(problems)`

Accept an optional array of problems (as thrown by `config.validate()`) and
perform the necessary steps to resolve them. If no problems are provided,
this method will call `config.validate()` internally to retrieve them.

Note that you must `await config.save('user')` in order to persist the changes.
