nx local-registry fails with an exception: 'registry' is not a valid npm version

[ErickRodrCodes]

Current Behavior

after migrating from 19.3 to 19.5, I noted I can't run anymore local-registry.

In a windows machine, tried powershell and CMD both on the same outcome.

I pinpointed the error here:

which points to the repo here:

https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/09c0b3d31a4c29d90a3ac9197fb3c7082acf8b5d/packages/js/src/executors/verdaccio/verdaccio.impl.ts#L161

this could happen as npm config set 'registry' might not be compatible in certain instances. The keyword registry might cause an error on windows computers if it has single quotes around it.

Expected Behavior

The issue can easily be solved my running a conditional command that allows the execution of the right option.

search:

'${scopeName}registry'

replace with

${scopeName ? "'"+scopeName+"registry'" : 'registry'}

as a result it won't throw the respective error.

Steps to Reproduce

1. use nvs to setup node 20.14.0
2. on a specific repo that has plugins, try to run nx local-registry
3. use a windows machine. it is plausible mac computers might work properly.

Verdaccio will fail to execute with the error 'registry' is not a valid npm option
