Use in CI environments

[Kylar13]

installing like the README.md instructs gives out this error in CI

Any idea how to fix? CI is Github Actions

@Kylar13 that appears to be an issue with with your ssh authentication against github. I think these debugging steps should help:

To get back to you, apparently npm 7 has a bug where it will always save the "ssh" method in package-lock.json, even if you specify https on package.json. This is documented here

The workaround, for anyone running into this issue, is to specify your username in the https link, to make npm respect the installation method of using https when using npm ci.

To do this, just go into package.json and specify the url like this:

dependencies: {
  "mux-react-native-video-sdk": "git+https://<yourUsername>@github.com/muxinc/mux-stats-sdk-react-native-video#v0.1.0",
}

Hope this helps!! You can close this whenever @dylanjha

Whoa -- thanks for the details. We will need to get this published to npm anyway, but in the meantime I'm glad you're no longer blocked
