How to have npm dependencies from different registries in the package.json?

Question

In my package.json file I have declared dependencies which one from public registry and second from private registry (Artifactory in this case).

"dependencies": {
        "vue": "^2.4.4", //public registry
        "ce-ui": "http://myartifactory.com/artifactory/npm-local/ce-ui/-/ce-ui-0.0.2.tgz"
      }

I'm looking for way to declare dependencies using caret or tidle e.g.

 "dependencies": {
    "vue": "^2.4.4",
    "ce-ui": "^0.0.2"
  }

Thank you in advance.

To have dependencies from different registries referred in same package.json, npm recommends to use scope

Scoped packages will look like

"dependencies": {
  "@myorg/mypackage": "^1.3.0"
}

You can associate a scope with a registry using npm config:

npm config set @myorg:registry http://reg.example.com

Once a scope is associated with a registry, any npm install for a package with that scope will request packages from that registry instead of default registry https://registry.npmjs.org
