npm install private github repositories by dependency in package.json

I'm trying to install github private repository by npm that includes other private github repositories as dependency.

Have tried a lot of ways and posts but none is working. Here is what i'm doing :

npm install git+https://github.com/myusername/mygitrepository.git

in package.json is like : 

"dependencies": {
    "repository1name": "git+https://github.com/myusername/repository1.git",
    "repository2name": "git+https://github.com/myusername/repository2.git"
}

What is the the right way to do it?

Solution

  • The following worked just fine in all scenarios i needed : 

    "dependencies": {
"GitRepo": "git+https://<token-from-github>:x-oauth-basic@github.com/<user>/<GitRepo>.git"
}
