Create NPM and Docker Repos
Next, we will set up a NPM and Docker repositories in Artifactory.
- In your JFrog Platform instance go to Administration ► Repositories ► Repositories.
- Click on New Local Repository on the right.
- For package type, select Docker.
- Specify clouddays for the Repository Key.
-
Click Create Local Repository.
-
Next, we must create NPM repositories that will be used for NPM dependencies. JFrog provides an easy Quick Setup option for this. Go to your profile and select Quick Setup.
- Select NPM.
- Select Create a new repository option.
- Add clouddays as repository prefix and then click create. This create default NPM repositories including a remote repository for npmjs.
Three different types of repositories can be created: local, remote and virtual. Local repositories are physical, locally-managed repositories into which you can deploy artifacts. These are repositories that are local to the JFrog Artifactory instance. A remote repository serves as a caching proxy for a repository managed at a remote URL (which may itself be another Artifactory remote repository). A virtual repository (or “repository group”) aggregates several repositories with the same package type under a common URL. A virtual repository can aggregate local and remote repositories.
