Possible to publish to Github Packages?

See original GitHub issue

Affected Packages

CLI publish command

Problem

It appears that the current publish command always assumes the public registry. If there is a way to do this with the current version of changesets I haven’t been able to figure it out.

Proposed solution

Update publish command to check publishConfig.registry before publishing to the public registry.

I am publishing private packages to GitHub using changesets.

I’ve added this config to the individual package:

"publishConfig": {
    "registry": "https://npm.pkg.github.com"
},
"repository": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "ssh://git@github.com/user/repo.git",
    "directory": "packages/package-name"
}

Because there are multiple packages published from the one repo, you need the repository key to point back at GitHub (see https://help.github.com/en/packages/using-github-packages-with-your-projects-ecosystem/configuring-npm-for-use-with-github-packages#publishing-multiple-packages-to-the-same-repository)

Hi @aussiegeek, Possible to share how you were able to publish packages to github using changesets. Everytime I try, it gives the following error:

🦋  error ENEEDAUTH This command requires you to be logged in to https://npm.pkg.github.com/ 
🦋  error You need to authorize this machine using `npm adduser`
🦋  error npm ERR! code ENEEDAUTH
🦋  error npm ERR! need auth This command requires you to be logged in to https://npm.pkg.github.com/
🦋  error npm ERR! need auth You need to authorize this machine using `npm adduser`
🦋  error {
🦋  error   "error": {
🦋  error     "code": "ENEEDAUTH",
🦋  error     "summary": "This command requires you to be logged in to https://npm.pkg.github.com/",
🦋  error     "detail": "You need to authorize this machine using `npm adduser`"
🦋  error   }
🦋  error }

Snippet from release.yml file:

- name: Create Release Pull Request or Publish
   uses: changesets/action@v1
   with:
       publish: yarn changeset:release
       commit: "chore: version packages"
       title: "chore: version packages"
    env:
       GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
       NPM_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Thanks
