hpm server down (npm deploys not working)

[mikaelkaron]

On the public instance hook.io try a simple hook like this:

module["exports"] = function(hook) {
  var select = require("json-select/select");
  hook.res.end("end");
};

when testing the result is:

module.js:338
    throw err;
          ^
Unable to communicate with hpm server 

connect ECONNREFUSED

Sorry about that. We've been upgrading server security and infrastructure lately.

The hpm service was attempting to connect to local redis without any authentication ( which is no longer allowed )

I updated the configuration to use the new password and restarted hpm. I also installed json-select package. Should be working again.

The current approach to NPM deps isn't great. We need to setup a ghost registry so all published deps are just automatically available and installed.
