Zoltan Kochan 3acb421adf feat(pnpr): pnpr-native access control — strict token grammar and registry-scoped teams (#12790)
pnpr's access-control declaration is now pnpr-native, matching the
already-native routing config.

Token grammar: only the $-sigiled built-ins ($all, $authenticated,
$anonymous) are recognized; verdaccio's @-prefixed and bare alias
spellings are rejected at config load with a did-you-mean error, and
the $ namespace is reserved so a typo'd built-in cannot silently
become a username that admits nobody. Access lists and member lists
no longer whitespace-split: a YAML scalar is one token, multi-token
lists are YAML sequences, and an empty-string value is an error
pointing at [] or omission.

Teams: the global groups: block is replaced by registry-scoped teams.
Each hosted or upstream registry declares its own teams: map and
references it from its access lists as team:<name>; a bare token is a
username only. This closes the escalation where open registration let
anyone claim a username equal to a group name and inherit its grants,
and it makes cross-registry reuse explicit (YAML anchors) instead of a
global namespace. group:<name> gets a pointer at team:<name>, unknown
<type>: prefixes are rejected (htpasswd forbids ':' in usernames), and
an undeclared team reference is a startup error listing the declared
teams.

team: references are resolved to member sets at config load, so
access-list evaluation still needs only the caller's identity:
Identity drops its groups field and route classification, search, and
the resolver are untouched. The removed top-level groups: block is
rejected loudly, like the removed top-level packages: block, because
silently dropping it would change who may reach what on upgrade.

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.
  • Experimental Rust port. Includes pacquet, an experimental port of the CLI written in Rust.
  • 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.
