Problems publishing scoped module

[tomek-he-him]

Hello,

I’m having problems publishing the scoped package @parametric-svg/spec (and any other @parametric-svg/…). I don’t recall running into this before (I last published one of these in December) and I definitely don’t run into this when publishing non-scoped packages.

Here are the steps which led to the problem and what npm complains:

$ npm --version
3.8.5

$ node --version
v5.8.0

$ git clone git@github.com:parametric-svg/-.git parametric-svg

$ cd parametric-svg/packages/spec

$ git checkout spec-v1.2.6

$ npm publish --access=public

In pure SVG.**\n\n\n\n\n<a                                                        id="/usage"></a>&nbsp;\n\nUsage\n-----\n\n*parametric.svg* is a regular XML namespace. To use it on an element, first set the attribute `xmlns:parametric="//parametric-svg.js.org/v1"` on the element or any of its ancestors. It’s often most convenient to set that on the whole SVG document:\n\n```xml\n<svg version="1.1"\n  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"\n  xmlns:parametric="//parametric-svg.js.org/v1"\n  >\n  ...\n</svg>\n```\n\nOnce you’ve set the `xmlns:parametric` thing, you can use the namespace on attributes:\n\n```xml\n<circle\n  parametric:r="10 * factor"\n             r="50"\n/>\n```\n\n\n<h3 id="/usage/html5">\n  A note about HTML5\n</h3>\n\nHTML5 is not namespace-aware. Prefixing your parametric attribute or element with `parametric:` is enough – you don’t need to declare the `xmlns:parametric` thing beforehand.\n\nWhile XML will allow you to bind our namespace to another prefix like `p:` (through `xmlns:p="//parametric-…"`), it’s normally a bad idea. Only the prefix `parametric:` will work if your SVG is injected into a HTML5 document.\n\n\n\n\n<a                                        id="/parametric-attributes"></a>&nbsp;\n\nParametric attributes\n---------------------\n\nWhenever you set an attribute with the prefix `parametric:` on an element, we’ll bind it to a regular attribute of the same name, without the prefix. For example, the attribute `parametric:height` will be bound to `height`. We’ll call `parametric:height` a *parametric attribute* and `height` its *bound attribute*.\n\nWhen your parametric attribute gets an [update](#/update), the bound attribute is changed – or created, if it doesn’t exist.\n\n\n\n\n<a                                                       id="/syntax"></a>&nbsp;\n\nSyntax\n------\n\nA parametric attribute works like a calculated spreadsheet cell (one with a `=` in front). It can contain any mathematical expression, as long as it keeps to the rules below.\n\n\n<h3 id="/syntax/operators">\n  Operators\n</h3>\n\nWe have operators for all common arithmetic operations such as addition and multiplication. We use conventional infix notation for operators: an operator is placed between its arguments.\n\n```svg\n<circle parametric:r="2 + 3" />\n  <!-- → r="5" -->\n\n<circle parametric:r="2 * 3" />\n  <!-- → r="6" -->\n```\n\nYou can use round parentheses to override the default precedence of operators.\n\n```svg\n<circle parametric:r="2 + 3 * 4" />\n  <!-- → r="14" -->\n\n<circle parametric:r="(2 + 3) * 4" />\n  <!-- → r="20" -->\n```\n\nThe following operators are available:\n\nOperator    | Name                    | Syntax      | Associativity | Example                    | Result\n----------- | ----------------------- | ----------  | ------------- | -------------------------- | ---------------\n`(`, `)`    | Parentheses             | `(x)`       | None          | `2 * (3 + 4)`              | `14`\n`,`         | Parameter separator     | `x, y`      | Left to right | `max(2, 1, 5)`             | `5`\n`+`         | Add                     | `x + y`     | Left to right | `4 + 5`                    | `9`\n`-`         | Subtract                | `x - y`     | Left to right | `7 - 3`                    | `4`\n`-`         | Unary minus             | `-y`        | Right to left | `-4`                       | `-4`\n`*`         | Multiply                | `x * y`     | Left to right | `2 * 3`                    | `6`\n`/`         | Divide                  | `x / y`     | Left to right | `6 / 2`                    | `3`\n`%`         | Modulus                 | `x % y`     | Left to right | `8 % 3`                    | `2`\n`^`         | Power                   | `x ^ y`     | Right to left | `2 ^ 3`                    | `8`\n`!`         | Factorial               | `y!`        | Left to right | `5!`                       | `120`\n`and`       | Logical and             | `x and y`   | Left to right | `true and false  ? 1 : 0`  | `0`\n`not`       | Logical not             | `not y`     | Right to left | `not true        ? 1 : 0`  | `0`\n`or`        | Logical or              | `x or y`    | Left to right | `true or false   ? 1 : 0`  | `1`\n`xor`       | Logical xor             | `x xor y`   | Left to right | `true xor true   ? 1 : 0`  | `0`\n`?` `:`     | Conditional expression  | `x ? y : z` | Right to left | `false ? 1 : -1`           | `-1`\n`==`        | Equal                   | `x == y`    | Left to right | `2 == 4 - 2      ? 1 : 0`  | `1`\n`!=`        | Unequal                 | `x != y`    | Left to right | `2 != 3          ? 1 : 0`  | `1`\n`<`         | Smaller                 | `x < y`     | Left to right | `2 < 3           ? 1 : 0`  | `1`\n`>`         | Larger                  | `x > y`     | Left to right | `2 > 3           ? 1 : 0`  | `0`\n`<=`        | Smallereq               | `x <= y`    | Left to right | `4 <= 3          ? 1 : 0`  | `0`\n`>=`        | Largereq                | `x >= y`    | Left to right | `2 + 4 >= 6      ? 1 : 0`  | `1`\n\n\n<h3 id="/syntax/variables">\n  Variables\n</h3>\n\nA variable is like a spreadsheet cell with a static value (without a `=` in front). You can set your own variables and reference them from parametric attributes – much like you reference a value from a spreadsheet cell.\n\nThere is one difference between a spreadsheet cell and a variable. While a cell has an *address* (like `B1`) – you must give each variable a *name* using lower- and uppercase letters (for example, `baseLength`). You can later use this name to reference a value. This makes your parametric attributes more readable – instead of `(B1 + 3) * 2` you would `(baseLength + 3) * 2`. When you look at the file two weeks later, you’ll still know what’s going on.\n\nIf an expression in a parametric attribute contains a variable which doesn’t have any value, the bound attribute won’t be updated.\n\nHow you assign values to your variables depends on the implementation you’re using. For example, the *[\\<parametric-svg\\>][]* custom element takes variables as attributes:\n\n```html\n<parametric-svg\n  x="5"\n  color="`green`"\n  ><svg>\n  <rect\n    parametric:x="x + 2"\n               x="7"\n    parametric:fill="color"\n               x="green"\n  />\n</svg></parametric-svg>\n```\n\n[\\<parametric-svg\\>]:  https://www.npmjs.com/package/@parametric-svg/element\n\n\n<h3 id="/syntax/types">\n  Data types\n</h3>\n\nA parametric attributes can result in two types of values:\n\n* **number** – A floating-point number like `3` or `29.3`. For example, `parametric:x="3 + 5.4"` will result in `x="8.4"`.\n\n* **string** – A sequence of characters enclosed in backticks (``` `` ```). For example, ``parametric:fill="`green`"`` will result in `fill="green"`. Your string can contain any whitespace inside. There are some characters you may need to escape:\n\nEscape sequence   | Result\n---               | ---\n`` \\` ``          | `` ` `` – backtick\n`\\$`              | `$` – dollar sign (See [Template strings][] for more info.)\n`\\\\`              | `\\` – backslash\n\nIn addition, you can use one more type of value internally in your variables and calculations:\n\n* **boolean** – `true` or `false`. For example, `parametric:r="true ? 5 : 10"` will result in `r="5"`. Keep in mind that the result of a parametric attribute can’t be a boolean – so `parametric:r="true"` is invalid.\n\n[Template strings]:   #/syntax/template-strings\n\n\n<h3 id="/syntax/template-strings">\n  Template strings\n</h3>\n\nYou can embed any expression in your string. Just put it between a `${` and a `}` – we’ll evaluate it and insert the result into your string. You may know this syntax [from ES 2015][].\n\nFor example, if you write ``parametric:d="`M ${1 + 2}, ${3 + 4}`"``, we’ll render it as `d="M 3, 7"`.\n\nIf you ever need to display the raw sequence of characters `${` in your string and don’t want that to be treated as the start of an expression, remember to escape the `$` with a backslash: `\\${`.\n\n[from ES 2015]:   https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/template_strings\n\n\n<h3 id="/syntax/credits">\n  Credits\n</h3>\n\nThe original parametric.svg parser uses [mathjs][] under the hood. We’ve ripped a lot of this specification off their specs. All credits go to the fine [developers of mathjs][].\n\n\n[mathjs]:                http://mathjs.org\n[developers of mathjs]:  https://github.com/josdejong/mathjs/graphs/contributors\n\n\n\n\n<a                                                      id="/license"></a>&nbsp;\n\nLicense\n-------\n\n[MIT][] © [Tomek Wiszniewski][].\n\n[MIT]: ./License.md\n[Tomek Wiszniewski]: https://github.com/tomekwi\n',

... I wonder if the dash in your username has something to do with this..

[figadore]

Mine does not have a dash and I have the same error

[othiym23]

You should open a new issue on npm/registry and link to this one, because this problem is something happening within the registry infrastructure. We've seen it a couple times recently, and I think the @npm/registry-team should be able to get it sorted out pretty quickly.

[soldair]

@tomekwi I believe you may just have to login again. The error message is not very good for this case. I tested everything and it seems to work as long as you are using a valid token.

[figadore]

@soldair I just tried it again after npm add-user, and it did have an effect. Now my error message is You need a paid account to perform this action. I started the issue listed above as a result.

If anyone else tries this, don't forget --access=public after re-logging in, or when attempting to publish a new package, as that appears to be the cause of the referenced issue

[soldair]

because i believe this issue is resolved for @tomekwi. and a different issue is resolved @shinymayhem. I'm going to close this issue.

If anyone else has an issue like this that is unaddressed please email support@npmjs.com or comment on https://github.com/npm/registry/issues/2

[tomek-he-him]

Hi, very sorry I didn’t reply earlier – it’s quite a crazy time for me lately.

It did work, the problem was actually between the chair and the monitor. I was logged in as tomekwi but not as parametric-svg. Thank you for your patience and wonderful support!

By the way, perhaps if you made the error message more accurate than

npm ERR! 404 Not found : @parametric-svg/spec
npm ERR! 404 
npm ERR! 404  '@parametric-svg/spec' is not in the npm registry.
npm ERR! 404 You should bug the author to publish it (or use the name yourself!)

…, I’d realize my mistake myself and not bother you here. Just a thought.

Thanks again!

[mofc3t15]

like @tomekwi said... if you need to upload a scoped package (assume @thescopedpackage/test ) then you need to login (adduser) as 'thescopedpackage'.

for example this is what i did...

`npm adduser username:thenameofscope password: email(public): foo@example.com

npm login --scope=thescopename npm --access=public publish `

[huan]

@mofc3t15 You are my hero!

[rfviolato]

The culprit for me was not having the user that is publishing the package in a org team (https://www.npmjs.com/org/myOrgNameHere/teams) within the organization. I had 0 teams in my org to be more precise, then I created a team, added the user that is publishing the package and it works now.

I have used the following commands to make it work: npm login --scope=myOrgNameHere npm publish --access=public
