JFrog Set me up is a functionality available in the JFrog window that enables you to easily generate CLI commands you can copy and run to configure your package manager client, upload and download packages via Artifactory. If you are a developer or other related role that needs to connect your package manager to JFrog, this topic describes how to easily accomplish that.
This topic describes Set me up using a generic example for NPM packages. For specific instructions for other package types, see that registry's section in the Package Management chapter of this guide.
Prerequisite: Your instance of Artifactory must have an existing repository for the package type you want to set up. For more information on repositories, see Quick Repository Setup or contact your Artifactory administrator.
To use Set me up: In the Artifactory main window, click Artifacts. Select an existing repository, then click Set Me Up.
Artifactory displays the Set Up A Client screen.
Click your client
The following is an example of the Set Me Up screen for NPM. You use the Set Me Up screen to configure your package manager client to work with the package vendor’s registry.
1. Configure
Click Generate Token & Create Instructions
Use the Configure tab to generate a token and then configure your package manager client to connect to Artifactory. After generating a token Artifactory prepopulates placeholders with required information, including the CLI commands required for configuring your package manager client. You then copy these commands and paste into your CLI. Remember, you need to have an existing repository for that package type in Artifactory before being able to connect to it. For more information see Set up Package Management in Artifactory.
2. Publish, Deploy, Push, etc. Click the Publish, Deploy, or Push tab (name of tab depends on the selected package type). Follow the instructions to set up your client to publish a package to your Artifactory repository. This enables you to publish a package to your Artifactory repository.
3. Install, Download, Resolve or Pull Click Install, Download, Resolve or Pull tab (name of tab depends on the selected package type). Follow the instructions to set up your client install a package using your client.
