Environment Variables

Verdaccio provides a set of environment variables to modify either permissions, port or http protocol. Here the complete list:

Docker

To change the behavior on runtime on running the image, these are the list of available variables.

Variable	Default	Description
VERDACCIO_APPDIR	/opt/verdaccio	the docker working directory
VERDACCIO_USER_NAME	verdaccio	the system user
VERDACCIO_USER_UID	10001	the user id being used to apply folder permissions
VERDACCIO_PORT	4873	the verdaccio port
VERDACCIO_PROTOCOL	http	the default http protocol

VERDACCIO_HANDLE_KILL_SIGNALS

Enables gracefully shutdown, more info at the pull request #2121.

VERDACCIO_PUBLIC_URL

Define a specific public url for your server, it overrules the Host and X-Forwarded-Proto header if a reverse proxy is being used, it takes in account the url_prefix if is defined.

This is handy in such situations where a dynamic url is required.

eg:

VERDACCIO_PUBLIC_URL='https://somedomain.org';
url_prefix: '/my_prefix'

// url -> https://somedomain.org/my_prefix/

VERDACCIO_PUBLIC_URL='https://somedomain.org';
url_prefix: '/'

// url -> https://somedomain.org/

VERDACCIO_PUBLIC_URL='https://somedomain.org/first_prefix';
url_prefix: '/second_prefix'

// url -> https://somedomain.org/second_prefix/'

VERDACCIO_FORWARDED_PROTO

The default header to identify the protocol is X-Forwarded-Proto, but there are some environments which uses something different, to change it use the variable VERDACCIO_FORWARDED_PROTO

$ VERDACCIO_FORWARDED_PROTO=CloudFront-Forwarded-Proto verdaccio --listen 5000

VERDACCIO_STORAGE_PATH

By default, the storage is taken from config file, but using this variable allows to set it from environment variable.

EXPERIMENTAL_VERDACCIO_LOGGER_COLORS

Overrides logs.colors from the config.yaml.

Note that any value that other than false will result in true.

When both are not provided - the colors are on by default for TTY processes, and off for processes that are not.
