having problems with dev environment setup

[maraoz]

Hi! I'm following the README's guide for project setup, and I'm stuck with the https://github.com/yearn/yearn-finance-v3#yearnweb-lib-access section.

I've created the Github Personal Access Token as described in the guide, but I'm getting

error An unexpected error occurred: "https://npm.pkg.github.com/download/@yearn/web-lib/0.2.27/a5aec6437505213aef6fb84cf564053246dd21b7cb0105c33c517bfe872ed3bc: Request failed \"401 Unauthorized\"".

every time I run yarn install -- no matter what premissions I assign to the token.

Two questions:

1. what permissions are required for the gh personal access token for yarn install and yarn dev to work?
2. does someone from yearn need to give me read acces to @yearn/web-lib, or is this a misconfiguration on my end?

Thanks in advance!

I should clarify that when I run npm config get npm.pkg.github.com/:_authToken, I see my personal access token printed in my shell, so I seem to have configured the .npmrc correctly

Hey there @maraoz ! sorry readme is not clear enough, this web-lib dependency was introduced recently. Please follow this instructions.

The permissions needed in the personal access token are described here

If you are able to set it up properly, please feel free to update the README :)

thanks @xgambitox ! I had just fixed it myself by including the access token config in the .npmrc for this repo (not the global one). I'll update README next. thanks!

@maraoz just be aware that by including the PAT in the file inside the repo rather in the global home directory, there is a high risk of pushing the token to the public repo in github, which is not ideal.
