edx-platform builds: npm issue

[Ben Patterson]

Hi all -

Just a heads up that Jenkins builds are failing due to what appears to be an issue with the npm registry. (Certain packages+versions are reaching a 502 error when we attempt to pull them down).

We will update you once we have any relevant, additional information.

Impact:

• Jenkins builds will fail, such as pull requests
• On devstack, if you have run an install recently, then your cached version of the npm packages will be fine; however, if your local cache is out of date and attempts to pull down affected packages, you will be impacted as well.

Regards

Ben

The issues as npmjs.org have been resolved. Builds are stabilizing on our Jenkins instance.

Thanks to Brian Jacobel for providing a workaround while npm was having issues.

For ongoing status, check status.npmjs.org.

Thanks
