You can. Follow the directions for setting up the offline cache here: https://yarnpkg.com/blog/2016/11/24/offline-mirror/

and then run yarn kbn bootstrap —prefer-offline

Hello Bill_McConaghy,Team,

I tried setting up the offline/local repository, but i am facing following issue,
i have downloaded required '.tgz' files and set the cache folder as mentioned here.

> yarn config set yarn-offline-mirror <folder_path_containing_.tgz_files>

Now, when i run the command

yarn kbn bootstrap --prefer-offline

it tries to download files which are already available in the local folder.

i even tried clearing cache and cleaning the project.

I am seeing this behavior particularly on @kbn/pm module.
It went well for 3-4 modules.

Any pointers to resolve this issue are really appreciated.

Thank you,
Aditya
