Install npm package from private github repository

[marcoBros]

Is it possible to install npm package form private github repo ?

In my packages.json file i put :
{
myPrivatePackage: "git+ssh://git@github.com/MY_ACCOUNT/MY_PACKAGE.git#05f1914dce_COMMIT_HASH_853e9b787558e"
}

But meteor do not asking github username and password. And give me this error :

While reading package from ./packages/npm-container:
package.js:14:7: must declare exact version of dependency: MY_PACKAGE@git+ssh://git@github.com/MY_ACCOUNT/MY_PACKAGE.git#05f1914dce_COMMIT_HASH_853e9b787558e

Is there another way ? Perhaps to install from local directory ?

I'm encountering the same problem. Installing from a private git repo works in Meteor 1.3.2, but I'm running meteor 1.2.1.

I've tried using the following references in my packages.json:
"":"git+ssh://github.com//.git#0.0.0"
"":"git+ssh://github.com///archive/0.0.0.tar.gz"
"":"git+ssh://github.com///archive/.tar.gz"
"":"git+ssh://github.com//.git#"

I can't upgrade to meteor 1.3 since 1.2 is the latest version with available ARM binaries (I'm running this on a pi3).

If there's a workaround, like installing from a local directory, I'd appreciate any details or instructions!

Thank you!
