pnpm config

Alias: i

Gestiona los archivos de configuración.

pnpm settings are split across two kinds of configuration files:

• Registry and authentication settings live in INI files — the global rc file and local .npmrc files.
• All other pnpm settings live in YAML files — the global config.yaml and the per-project pnpm-workspace.yaml.

The local workspace configuration file is located at the root of the project and is named pnpm-workspace.yaml. The global YAML configuration file (config.yaml) is located at:

• If the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME env variable is set, then $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pnpm/config.yaml
• On Windows: ~/AppData/Local/pnpm/config/config.yaml
• On macOS: ~/Library/Preferences/pnpm/config.yaml
• On Linux: ~/.config/pnpm/config.yaml

The global rc file (registry/auth settings only) is at:

• Si se establece la variable de entorno $XDG_CONFIG_HOME, entonces $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pnpm/rc
• En Windows: ~/AppData/Local/pnpm/config/rc
• En macOS: ~/Library/Preferences/pnpm/rc
• En Linux: ~/.config/pnpm/rc

You can also retrieve the path to your global config file by running (added in v10.21.0):

pnpm config get globalconfig

Comandos

set <clave> <valor>

Establece la clave de configuración en el valor proporcionado.

Without the --json flag, it parses the value as plain string:

pnpm config set --location=project nodeVersion 22.0.0

With the --json flag, it parses the value as JSON:

pnpm config set --location=project --json nodeVersion '"22.0.0"'

The --json flag also allows pnpm config set to create arrays and objects:

pnpm config set --location=project --json allowBuilds '{"react": true, "react-dom": true}'
pnpm config set --location=project --json catalog '{ "react": "19" }'

The set command does not accept a property path.

get <clave>

Imprime el valor de configuración de la clave proporcionada.

The key can be a simple key:

pnpm config get nodeVersion
pnpm config get --json nodeVersion
pnpm config get --json packageExtensions
pnpm config get --json allowBuilds
pnpm config get --json catalog

It can also be a property path:

pnpm config get 'packageExtensions["@babel/parser"].peerDependencies["@babel/types"]'
pnpm config get --json 'packageExtensions["@babel/parser"].peerDependencies["@babel/types"]'
pnpm config get 'allowBuilds.react'
pnpm config get --json 'allowBuilds.react'
pnpm config get catalog.react
pnpm config get --json catalog.react

The syntax of the property path emulates JavaScript property paths.

delete <clave>

Elimina la clave de configuración del archivo de configuración.

list

Muestra todos los ajustes de configuración. Output is a JSON object.

Auth-related settings are hidden from the output; use pnpm config get <key> to read them explicitly.

note

Since v11, pnpm config get (without --json) no longer prints INI-formatted text. It prints JSON for objects and arrays, and raw strings for strings, numbers, booleans, and nulls. pnpm config get --json prints all values as JSON. pnpm config list always prints a JSON object.

Opciones

--global, -g

Establece la configuración en el archivo de configuración global.

--location

By default, --location is set to global.

When set to project, pnpm writes the setting to pnpm-workspace.yaml at the workspace root (or, for registry/auth settings, to the .npmrc in the workspace root).

When set to global, the behavior is the same as passing the --global option.

--json

Make get and list show all the config settings in JSON format and make set parse the value as JSON.
