npm search supposed to work?

[Ilya Kantor]

I've installed https://github.com/npm/npm-registry-couchapp, and pointed kappa to the replicated skim registry.

Npm install works, but npm search:

iliakan> npm search kappa
npm WARN Building the local index for the first time, please be patient

Is it normal?

[Erik Toth]

Could this be the issue? I suspect those /-/all requests are taking > 5 seconds.

[Ilya Kantor]

Removed the timeout.

This works for me. Reopen if this is still a problem.
