Help with building Paraview Glance

Hello I am trying to build paraview-glance from Kitware/ paraview-glance GitHub repo. It was successful on my personal laptop but unable to do so in my office machine. (I use enterprise registry and they prevent downloading package from external github)

The issue I found is with kw-doc dependency. I get the following error.

npm ERR! Error while executing:
npm ERR! C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.EXE ls-remote -h -t git://github.com/floryst/kw-doc.git
npm ERR!
npm ERR! fatal: read error: Invalid argument
npm ERR!
npm ERR! exited with error code: 128

I am planning to download the file and maintain a local copy. But I don’t want to add kw-doc in version management. Can anyone suggest an efficient work around ?

Also is the kw-docs necessary. I see them in dev dependency. If it is required why can’t it be published to npm ?

Hi, I had used a personal copy of kw-doc a while back to fix an issue with website generation via CI, and forgot to move it back to the npm published version. If you change kw-doc version in package.json to 1.3.1, does that work? In the meantime, I will make that change officially as well.
