I know at least libnpmexec
is expecting cache
to be up a level: https://github.com/npm/libnpmexec/blob/5dcbb9a28200f13037a0190843337b0159533890/lib/cache-install-dir.js
let's make sure to fix it there first in case we want to land this one
I mean, assuming the intent was to have |
libnpmexec expects it to be in BOTH places, because it passes it down into pacote which expects that value to be the "cacache" cache option: |

This adds a new `npxCache` flatOption for libnpmexec to look for to put its `_npx` content. libnpmexec will have to be patched to use that value, and continue to pass `flatOptions.cache` to pacote et al. The `flatOptions.cache` is the one that is intended to be passed down into other modules, as it has the `_cacache` suffix attached. What was happening before was that `npx` was creating a new alternate cache one directory up from where everything else was, and also putting the `_npx` content there. It is possible this is the source of at least some of our "npx doesn't find the right versions" bugs. PR-URL: #3430 Credit: @wraithgar Close: #3430 Reviewed-by: @ruyadorno

This adds a new
npxCache
flatOption for libnpmexec to look for to putits
_npx
content. libnpmexec will have to be patched to use thatvalue, and continue to pass
flatOptions.cache
to pacote et al.The
flatOptions
cache is the one that is intended to be passed downinto other modules, as it has the
_cacache
suffix attached. What washappening before was that
npx
was creating a new alternate cache onedirectory up from where everything else was, and also putting the
_npx
content there. It is possible this is the source of at least some of
our "npx doesn't find the right versions" bugs.
