Use https://nodejs.org/ as defaultDownloadRoot

Currently, http://nodejs.org/dist/ redirects to https://nodejs.org/en/blog/. Adding

<nodeDownloadRoot>https://nodejs.org/dist/</nodeDownloadRoot>

to my pom.xml solved the problem. Maybe it would be an option to use the HTTPS URL by default?

You should have something similar to this in you pom:

<execution>
    <id>install node and npm</id>
    <goals>
        <goal>install-node-and-npm</goal>
    </goals>
    <phase>generate-resources</phase>
    <configuration>
        <nodeVersion>v4.1.1</nodeVersion>
        <npmVersion>3.3.3</npmVersion>
        <nodeDownloadRoot>https://nodejs.org/dist/</nodeDownloadRoot>
        <npmDownloadRoot>http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/</npmDownloadRoot>
    </configuration>
</execution>

based on the sourcecode, it used http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/ by default for npm. So you have to specify the npm and nodejs download roots separately:

<nodeDownloadRoot>https://nodejs.org/dist/</nodeDownloadRoot>
<npmDownloadRoot>http://registry.npmjs.org/npm/-/</npmDownloadRoot>
