@nx/js/plugins/jest/local-registry - listenAddress other than 'localhost' - startLocalRegistry does not resolve promise

[RobbyRabbitman]

Current Behavior

startLocalRegistry of @nx/js/plugins/jest/local-registry does not resolve when the host is different than localhost.

Expected Behavior

I expect --listenAddress='0.0.0.0' of @nx/js:verdaccio to work with startLocalRegistry of @nx/js/plugins/jest/local-registry

Steps to Reproduce

// project.json targets
{
  "executor": "@nx/js:verdaccio",
  "options": {
    "port": 4321,
    "listenAddress": "0.0.0.0",
    "clear": true,
    "config": "{projectRoot}/src/local-registry.yml",
    "storage": ".local-registry"
  }
}

startLocalRegistry has output:

Cleared local registry storage folder /Users/rob/Desktop/hdi-components/.local-registry
warn --- http address - http://0.0.0.0:4321/ - verdaccio/5.32.2

// project.json targets
{
  "executor": "@nx/js:verdaccio",
  "options": {
    "port": 4321,
    "clear": true,
    "config": "{projectRoot}/src/local-registry.yml",
    "storage": ".local-registry"
  }
}

startLocalRegistry has output:

Cleared local registry storage folder /Users/rob/Desktop/hdi-components/.local-registry
warn --- http address - http://localhost:4321/ - verdaccio/5.32.2

The startLocalRegistry promise does not resolve because the predicate never matches https://github.com/nrwl/nx/blob/c2af06e0a12529a5c3d1a09024ccc1fabf4e5604/packages/js/src/plugins/jest/start-local-registry.ts#L40-L71

I don't have a deep understanding of @nx/js:verdaccio and verdaccio itself but i guess the executor expects the log level at least to be on warn in order to parse the registry url of the following log statement: warn --- http address - {url} - verdaccio/5.32.2

A workaround for my project is a pnpm patch for now:

if (data.toString().includes('http address')) {
  const port = data.toString().match(/http:\/\/(?<host>[^:/]+)(:(?<port>\d+))?/)?.groups?.port;

In general I wonder whether its a good idea to hardcode localhost as the host - maybe it should also be parsed from the log statement aswell.

I also tried to use the listen property in the verdaccio config and omit the port arg in the @nx/js:verdaccio executor but its required - I guess it makes sense that it is required because it uses the port for the npm config shenanigans.

# verdaccio config
listen:
  - 0.0.0.0:4321 # no effect

A alternative (which I haven't tested) may be to not use the @nx/js:verdaccio but verdaccios cli itself and hard code the registry in the global .npmrc to a specific value e.g. http://localhost:4321. This may be fine for lots of use cases - for mine at least it would be.
