Font-awesome: Can't install pro files via NPM

[hcker2000]

I have tried fallowing along with this https://fontawesome.com/how-to-use/use-with-node-js#pro

I have tried via .npmrc

When ever I try any of the following

npm i --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-solid
npm i --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-regular
npm i --save @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-light

They all fail to install with a similar error message.

npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-light@latest

npm ERR! A complete log of this run can be found in:
npm ERR!     C:\Users\webmaster\AppData\Roaming\npm-cache\_logs\2018-03-08T18_10_03_389Z-debug.log

Here is the output of the log file.

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community.

Did you set your token before?

$ npm config set @fortawesome:registry https://npm.fontawesome.com/YOUR-TOKEN

You should see your token at https://fontawesome.com/how-to-use/use-with-node-js#pro

PS: ⚠️ KEEP YOUR TOKEN PRIVATE do not share it in your logs or bug reports

If this doesn't solve, please open this issue in the Pro repository at https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome-Pro/issues

If you are not able to access to the Pro repository, please make sure you linked your github account to your fontawesome.com account at https://fontawesome.com/account/linked-accounts

Closing here

I really wish the docs had this - they state:
$ npm config set @fortawesome:registry https://npm.fontawesome.com/
not
$ npm config set @fortawesome:registry https://npm.fontawesome.com/YOUR-TOKEN

...and it silently fails without the token even if you set the _authToken config.

You also need to restart Terminal. I putting this here for next time I need it 👍

@robhadfield I have the same issue and the command npm config set @fortawesome:registry https://npm.fontawesome.com/ did not work for me. It's still saying

npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: @fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-solid@https://registry.npmjs.org/@fortawesome/fontawesome-pro-solid/-/fontawesome-pro-solid-5.0.13.tgz

Any ideas?

[davidjpetersen]

I'm having the same issue. Thanks for any help!

[sciyoshi]

I'm seeing this issue as well as of today. This had previously been working, and my config hasn't changed. I tried changing the config to using :_authToken as well, still no luck.

I recommend also checking out this upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1

https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/blob/master/UPGRADING.md#50x-to-510

Worked for me.

[carlotapia]

Also, make sure you're using the token, not the license key. They look similar and are on the same account page.

This was my mistake 🤦

[ganmuru]

Finally this worked for me
$ npm config set "@fortawesome:registry" https://npm.fontawesome.com/
$ npm config set "//npm.fontawesome.com/:_authToken" YOURTOKEN

One thing I can add is travis suddenly started using npm ci now by default instead of npm install. Somehow using config set before doesn't work anymore then so I overridden it with npm install again by using:

before_install:
  - npm config set "@fortawesome:registry" https://npm.fontawesome.com/
  - npm config set "//npm.fontawesome.com/:_authToken" $FONTAWESOME_NPM_TOKEN
install:
  - npm install
