Configure nvm to download Node.js binaries from custom mirrors in restricted network environments.
Set the mirror URL via environment variable:
# Use a custom mirror (e.g., Taobao mirror for China)
export NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR=https://npmmirror.com/mirrors/node
# Then install as normal
nvm install 20
Configure authentication headers if the mirror requires auth:
# Set auth header for private mirror access
export NVM_AUTH_HEADER="Authorization: Bearer <token>"
nvm install 20
Validate mirror connectivity:
# Test the mirror URL
curl -I "$NVM_NODEJS_ORG_MIRROR/v20.11.0/"
# Verify node downloads successfully
nvm install 20 && node -v
Note: Installation steps are in nvm-install. This skill handles only mirror and auth configuration.
