creating a remote repo of powershellgallery.com - is this possible?

Question

Has anyone tried to or know how to setup a remote or cached repo within Artifactory for the powershellgallery?

I am unable to find anything even remotely talking about this online as well.

PSGallery URI is: https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2

I am beginning to think it was intentionally made by MS to not allow situations like that (but am looking for confirmation if that's the case)

NOTE: the intent here is that we will then have an internally accessible remote repo that is a copy of the PSGallery. Which then allows us to make sure we are scanning the modules and abiding by compliance regulations.

when it's added to Artifactory as a remote repo, its successful, but is empty.

Then, we set it up on Windows machine with register-PSRepository -Name psgallery-remote -SourceLocation myartifactoryuri (successful)

But when trying to do a find-module -name InvokeBuild -repository psgallery-remote it fails with no results.

When doing find-module -name InvokeBuild -Repository PSGallery it's successful.

You should configure Artifactory remote repository as the following :

• Url: https://www.powershellgallery.com/
• NuGet Download Context Path : api/v2/package
• NuGet Feed Context Path: api/v2
