John-David Dalton 2dd79e372c feat(pacquet): honor NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS for custom CA trust (#12508)
* feat(pacquet): honor NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS for custom CA trust

pacquet's reqwest client trusts only its bundled webpki roots plus the
.npmrc ca/cafile material — it ignores NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS. pnpm running
on Node picks that variable up transitively via Node's TLS runtime, so a
native port has to read it explicitly to keep real-world parity for
users behind a corporate MITM proxy or a self-signed registry.

Load the named PEM bundle as additional trust roots in
default_client_builder (the single chokepoint every client routes
through), keeping the .npmrc-derived TlsConfig env-free. Additive and
lowest-priority; a missing, unreadable, or malformed file is silently
ignored, matching pnpm's silent treatment of a missing cafile. Documented
as the one deliberate exception to the TlsConfig no-env-vars parity note.

* perf(pacquet): load NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS once per for_installs

Addresses review on the NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS change:

- Read and parse the bundle once in for_installs via
  load_node_extra_ca_certs(), then clone the parsed certs into the
  default client and each per-registry client. Previously
  default_client_builder re-read and re-parsed the file on every call,
  i.e. once per per-registry override.
- Use the existing EnvGuard test helper (process-wide lock + restore on
  drop, panic-safe) instead of a hand-rolled lock with manual restore.
  The test now also asserts a valid bundle parses to one root and a
  missing file yields none.

* test(pacquet): align NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS test with aube's

Make the pacquet and aube tests mirror each other in form and coverage:
exercise the same four cases in the same order — empty value, valid
bundle (asserting one parsed root plus a successful client build), a
readable non-PEM file, and a missing file — each asserting
load_node_extra_ca_certs() yields the expected roots. Also align the
env-var read in load_node_extra_ca_certs to the same let-else + filter
form aube uses (no behavior change).

* docs(pacquet): fix broken intra-doc links in load_node_extra_ca_certs

The free function's doc used [`Self::for_installs`], but `Self` only
resolves in impl/trait contexts, so rustdoc flagged it as an unresolved
intra-doc link and the Rust CI Doc job (RUSTDOCFLAGS=-D warnings) failed.
Reference [`ThrottledClient::for_installs`] instead.

pnpm

Fast, disk space efficient package manager:

  • Fast. Up to 2x faster than the alternatives (see benchmark).
  • Efficient. Files inside node_modules are linked from a single content-addressable storage.
  • Great for monorepos.
  • Strict. A package can access only dependencies that are specified in its package.json.
  • Deterministic. Has a lockfile called pnpm-lock.yaml.
  • Works as a Node.js version manager. See pnpm runtime.
  • Works everywhere. Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Battle-tested. Used in production by teams of all sizes since 2016.
  • See the full feature comparison with npm and Yarn.

To quote the Rush team:

Microsoft uses pnpm in Rush repos with hundreds of projects and hundreds of PRs per day, and weve found it to be very fast and reliable.

Background

pnpm uses a content-addressable filesystem to store all files from all module directories on a disk. When using npm, if you have 100 projects using lodash, you will have 100 copies of lodash on disk. With pnpm, lodash will be stored in a content-addressable storage, so:

  1. If you depend on different versions of lodash, only the files that differ are added to the store. If lodash has 100 files, and a new version has a change only in one of those files, pnpm update will only add 1 new file to the storage.
  2. All the files are saved in a single place on the disk. When packages are installed, their files are linked from that single place consuming no additional disk space. Linking is performed using either hard-links or reflinks (copy-on-write).

As a result, you save gigabytes of space on your disk and you have a lot faster installations! If you'd like more details about the unique node_modules structure that pnpm creates and why it works fine with the Node.js ecosystem, read this small article: Flat node_modules is not the only way.
