Support .npmrc configuration #107

Closed baldmountain closed 8 years ago

It would be good if ied would read and use options from the user's or project's .npmrc file. Usually there is more in there than just a registry. We use artifactory and authentication so for us ied would need to be able to authenticate to artifactory in the same way npm does.

This is probably related to the issue of supporting private repositories. Issue 103.

Using an existing .npmrc file as configuration is not planned. This adds additional complexity and might in fact be confusing when we still have an iedrc or other ied-specific config file.

That being said, we're not planning on using ini style config files, but plain old JSON.
