I am trying to use one of my private gitlab repositories as npm package. I am successfully able to do it when access to the repo is public but not with a private one.
Can someone help me understand the authentication mechanism. I cannot use ssh because we run the application on heroku.
I have looked into:
- using gitlab token to clone without authentication
- https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/user/project/new_ci_build_permissions_model.html
- Download from a GitLab private repository
But private token or gitlab ci runner token are not working.
