New Features​

Typescript migration by @juanpicado, @priscilawebdev and @griffithtp​

Now, Verdaccio is built entirely in Typescript, the last phase was convert the main project.

The UI-Theme was also migrated to Typescript by @priscilawebdev with the help of @griffithtp for finishing the refactor and make ESLint looks great again.

audit module doesn't support strict_ssl flag by @dfrencham​

There are some scenarios where Verdaccio runs behind company proxy with self-certificates. Now the audit middleware supports the flag strict_ssl, replicating the same feature availabe in uplinks.

middlewares:
  audit:
    enabled: true
    strict_ssl: true # optional, defaults to true

Development​

prevent secrets from leaking to source control by @lirantal​

Adds support through detect-secrets which wraps Yelp's generic detect-secrets tool, to test for secrets being committed to source control using the pre-commit Git hook the project already has, and as a result prevent secrets like passwords, tokens and others to leak into source control.

The detect-secrets npm package will try different methods of invoking the detect-secrets-hook tool to run the secrets test for each file, and if it isn't able to find it will silently fail to not interrupt developer workflow. In a future re-visit of this capability we can update this to be a breaking change and fail the commit (or perhaps fail the CI, which might be a bit late, but better than never).

storage plugins can throw http status codes by @juanpicado​

The storage plugins were forced to return some specific error codes that are not part of Node.js. Now we allow storage plugins to return the same error codes that Verdaccio returns to the Node Package Manager. Read more context in the PR.
