Issue with snapcraft nodejs plugin (and the local npm cache)

[VanCutsem, Geoffroy]

I’m no expert at all on nodejs and npm but doing an `npm update` feels more appropriate than deleting the entire cache, or am I missing something?

A bug has been filed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1660614

Thanks,
Geoffroy

Hi,

Another quick fix: I believe the nodejs plugin uses the global npm cache, which will be ~/.npm[1], so you could try deleting that folder.

Consider having the nodejs plugin support per project .npmrc so users can set cache options themselves rather than set via args in the plugin.

Hope this helps,
Stephen
