I don t think there is an easy way to do this   A look at the npm documentation tells us  that it is possible      Can I run my own private registry       Yes       The easiest way is to replicate the couch database  and use the same  or similar  design doc to implement the APIs       If you set up continuous replication from the official CouchDB  and then set your internal CouchDB as the registry config  then you ll be able to read any published packages  in addition to your private ones  and by default will only publish internally  If you then want to publish a package for the whole world to see  you can simply override the --registry config for that command    There s also an excellent tutorial on how to create a private npm repository in the clock blog   EDIT  2017-02-26    Not really new  but there are now paid plans to host private packages on NPM   Over the years  NPM has become a factor for many non-Node js companies  too  through the huge frontend ecosystem that s built upon NPM  If your company is already running Sonatype Nexus for hosting Java projects internally  you can also use it for hosting internal NPM packages   Other options include JFrog Artifactory and Inedo ProGet  but I haven t used those

I guess this thread needs an update  If you look at any of the npm registries which are available  they are extremely heavy and they need couchdb  Gemfurry and others need you to fork off from public repos  Some of the npm s like shadow-npm have no recent commits    Then  we found Reggie  Its got a good commit activity  extremely easy to install and use and has pretty good community support  Its extremely light-weight and you don t have to deal with couchdb  etc

On 14th of April  2015   npm private modules were introduced   When you pay for private modules  you can   Host as many private packages as you want Give read access or read-write access for those packages to any other paid user Install and use any packages that other paid users have given you read access to Collaborate on any packages that other paid users have given you write access to   Of course it s not free - currently 7  a month  per user  And it s still a pretty new service  For example support for organization accounts is missing  as of June 2015    Currently  private packages are only available for individual users  but support for organization accounts is coming soon  Feel free to create a user for your organization in the meantime  and we can upgrade it to an organization when support is here   So while not perfect  it s the official npm solution to maintaining private packages  and that itself makes it worth mentioning  UPDATE Npm Private Packages are now available  with plans for both individual users and organizations    Unlimited number of public  amp  private packages  7 month developer Includes one scope name  based on organization name Publish and control access to  org-name foo    disclaimer  not even remotely affiliated in any way with npm  Inc

Forgive me if I don t understand your question well  but here s my answer   You can create a private npm module and use npm s normal commands to install it  Most node js users use git as their repository  but you can use whatever repository works for you    In your project  you ll want the skeleton of an NPM package  Most node modules have git repositories where you can look at how they integrate with NPM  the package json file  I believe is part of this and NPM s website shows you how to make a npm package  Use something akin to Make to make and tarball your package to be available from the internet or your network to stage it for npm install downloads  Once your package is made  then use     npm install  tarball url

There is an easy to use npm package to do this  https   www npmjs org package sinopia  In a nutshell  Sinopia is a private caching npm repository server that you can setup with zero configuration   Sinopia can be used to     publish own private packages without exposing it to the public cache only public packages that are used  there is no need to have to replicate the whole public registery  override public packages with a modified version that have been produced internally

A little late to the party  but NodeJS  as of  Nov 14 I guess  supports corporate NPM repositories - you can find out more on their official site   From a cursory glance it would appear that npmE allows fall-through mirroring of the NPM repository - that is  it will look up packages in the real NPM repository if it can t find one on your internal one  Seems very useful      npm Enterprise is an on-premises solution for securely sharing and distributing JavaScript modules within your organization  from the team that maintains npm and the public npm registry  It s designed for teams that need       easy internal sharing of private modules better control of development   and deployment workflow stricter security around deploying open-source   modules compliance with legal requirements to host code on-premises   npmE is private npm      npmE is an npm registry that works with the same standard npm client   you already use  but provides the features needed by larger   organizations who are now enthusiastically adopting node  It s built   by npm  Inc   the sponsor of the npm open source project and the host   of the public npm registry    Unfortunately  it s not free  You can get a trial  but it is commerical software  This is the not so great bit for solo developers  but if you re a solo developer  you have GitHub  -

This is the easiest way I know - host it in the cloud with the Gemfury private npm registry   It s free and you can log in with your Github account  It should save you a lot of time  compared to setting up your own database
