Publish to a private registry authentication fails and work around

[Dreamystify]

I tried to get this working with no success with auth issues:

npm ERR! 401 Unauthorized - GET https://<workspace>.bytesafe.dev/r/npm/@<scope-name>%2f<package-name> - Access Denied

I require the step Setup NPMrc for JS-DevTools for the auth to work

 - name: Setup NPMrc for JS-DevTools
   run: echo "//<workspace>.bytesafe.dev/r/npm/:_authToken=${{secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN}}" >> .npmrc
 - id: publish
    uses: JS-DevTools/npm-publish@v1
    with:
      registry: 'https://<workspace>.bytesafe.dev/r/npm/'
      token: ${{secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN}}
      access: restricted
      check-version: true
  - if: steps.publish.outputs.type != 'none'
     run: |
       echo "Version changed: ${{ steps.publish.outputs.old-version }} => ${{ steps.publish.outputs.version }}"

Am I configuring JS-DevTools/npm-publish@v1 wrong?

In your example snippet, I am assuming you are using <workspace> as a placeholder to be replaced with your actual Bytesafe subdomain.

My ideas:

• name: Setup NPMrc for JS-DevTools
  run: echo "//.bytesafe.dev/r/npm/:_authToken=${{secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN}}" >> .npmrc

This above step should not be necessary when using this action

• id: publish
  uses: JS-DevTools/npm-publish@v1
  with:
  registry: 'https://.bytesafe.dev/r/npm/'
  token: ${{secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN}}
  access: restricted
  check-version: true

I think you must use spaces when accessing repository secrets via ${{ ... }}. This is a GH Actions syntax thing, and not something specific to this action.

# correct
token: ${{ secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN }}

# incorrect
token: ${{secrets.BYTESAFE_TOKEN}}

Since this ticket is a little old and I don't see any issues in the code, I'm going to close this ticket as "cannot reproduce." Let me know if you're still experiencing issues and we can investigate and/or re-open.
