Verdaccio plugins not working

[bab5470]

I'm installing verdaccio using helm and I need to install some additional verdaccio plugins notably:
verdaccio-ldap verdaccio-memory verdaccio-auth-memory

I'm doing that with the extraInitContainers in values.yml:

extraInitContainers:
   - name: populate-workdir
     image: verdaccio/verdaccio:5.2.0
     command:
       - 'sh'
       - '-c'
       - 'cp -a /opt/* /tmp/tmpopt/ > /dev/null 2>&1'
     volumeMounts:
     - name: verdoptio
       mountPath: /tmp/tmpopt/
   - name: install-plugins
     image: node:14.18.1-alpine
     command:
       - 'sh'
       - '-c'
       - |
         cd /opt/verdaccio/
         yarn config set enableProgressBars false
         yarn add verdaccio-ldap verdaccio-memory verdaccio-auth-memory
         yarn cache clean
         yarn workspaces focus --production > /dev/null 2>&1
         chown -R root /opt/
         chown 10001 /opt/verdaccio/
     volumeMounts:
     - name: verdoptio
       mountPath: /opt/

Then I have the following persistence defined:

persistence:
  accessMode: ReadWriteOnce
  enabled: true
  mounts:
    - mountPath: /opt/
      name: verdoptio
      readOnly: false
  selector: {}
  size: 8Gi
  volumes:
    - name: verdoptio
      emptyDir: {}

I've modified the verdaccio config.yml configmap as follows:

store:
  memory:
    limit: 1000

However, the pod is stuck in a crashloopbackoff with the error:

# k logs verdaccio-568c6599d9-bjs2p

So it seems like the verdaccio-memory plugin isn't being found but I am not sure why. If I run grep on package.json I do see it listed:

grep  grep package.json -e "verdaccio-memory"
    "verdaccio-memory": "10.3.0"

Can anyone help me understand why this isn't working?

Thanks

I've had better luck with the following approach:

extraInitContainers:
  - name: install-plugins
    image: node:lts-alpine
    command:
      - "sh"
      - "-c"
      - |
        cd /verdaccio/plugins/
        npm install --global-style --no-bin-links --omit=optional verdaccio-aws-s3-storage
        mv node_modules/* .
        rm -fr node_modules package*.json
        chown 10001 /verdaccio/plugins/
    volumeMounts:
      - name: verdoptio
        mountPath: /verdaccio/plugins/

persistence:
  enabled: true
  volumes:
    - name: verdoptio
      emptyDir: {}
  mounts:
    - mountPath: /verdaccio/plugins/
      name: verdoptio
      readOnly: false

configMap: |
  plugins: /verdaccio/plugins # Important!
  ...

It's based on this example: https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/tree/master/docker-examples/v5/plugins/docker-build-install-plugin

Docs were updated recently maybe that also helps https://verdaccio.org/docs/docker#plugins a Kubernetes (Helm) section for plugins also would be great to have.

@juanpicado is there any documentation for helm plugins available? trying to install a gcs plugin module

Well, what I do (or already I know it works) is just create my own Dockerfile

• https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/master/docker-examples/v6/plugins/docker-build-install-plugin/Dockerfile
• https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/tree/master/docker-examples/v6/plugins

Maybe not what you are looking for exactly but maybe helps
