The humans are multiplying!

This week finds a new human working at npm, Inc. Its name is Andrew Goode, an engineer who previously hacked for 8 years in the telematics industry. Haven't heard of him? Yeah, we haven't either. But he comes highly recommended and will be doing his best to make the npm On-Site product as goode as it can be. (See what we did there?) Andrew is based in Atlanta and kinda looks like this:

You can find him at local Node meetups or on GitHub and Twitter as nexdrew.

4.x Breaking Changes

• PR #330: .version() method now expects the version argument to be last instead of first.

Upgrade: change .version('1.0.0', 'v', 'Print app version') to .version('v', 'Print app version', '1.0.0')

What Makes OSS Work

GH, npm, Travis, Coveralls

Source code that is... "open"

• Find/view source code (GitHub website)
• Duplicate/download source code (git clone)
• Sandbox/isolate changes (git checkout -b)
• Capture changes (git add && git commit)

Node philosophy = Unix philosophy

• many small modules
• each module does one thing and does it well
• think lego bricks
• why is this good for open source?
  • smaller surface area
  • easier to test
  • easier to understand
  • easier to contribute

Size comparison of popular CLI modules

Inspired by yargs issue 468.

Here are the numbers by my count, using Node 5.9.1 and npm 3.8.5 on OS X 10.11.4:

yargs@4.4.0

• 49 dependencies
• 64 total directories

Problematic Dependencies

When using npm Enterprise, we sometimes encounter public packages in our private registry that need to fetch resources from the public internet when being installed by a client via npm install.

Unfortunately, this poses a problem for developers who work in an environment with limited or no access to the public internet.

In this article, we're going to look at some of the more common types of problems in this area and talk about ways we can work around them.

Note that these problems are not specific to npm Enterprise as a product, but are specific to using certain public packages in a limited-access environment. That being said, there are some things that npm (as an organization and software vendor) can do to better prevent or handle some of these problems, and we will be working towards that goal in the near future.
