package.json
El fichero manifest de un paquete. Contient toda la metadata del paquete, incluyendo dependencies, titulo, autor, etcétera. This is a standard preserved across all major Node.js package managers, including pnpm.
In addition to the traditional package.json format, pnpm also supports package.json5 (via json5) and package.yaml (via js-yaml).
engines
Puedes específicar la versión de Node y pnpm con la que tu aplicación trabaja:
{
"engines": {
"node": ">=10",
"pnpm": ">=3"
}
}
Durante el desarrollo local, pnpm siempre fallará con un mensaje de error si su versión no coincide con la especificada en el campo engines.
Unless the user has set the engineStrict config flag (see settings), this field is advisory only and will only produce warnings when your package is installed as a dependency.
dependenciesMeta
Metainformación adicional utilizada para dependencias declaradas dentro de dependencies, opcionalDependenciesy devDependenceas.
dependenciesMeta.*.injected
If this is set to true for a dependency that is a local workspace package, that package will be installed by creating a hard linked copy in the virtual store (node_modules/.pnpm).
If this is set to false or not set, then the dependency will instead be installed by creating a node_modules symlink that points to the package's source directory in the workspace. This is the default, as it is faster and ensures that any modifications to the dependency will be immediately visible to its consumers.
For example, suppose the following package.json is a local workspace package:
{
"name": "card",
"dependencies": {
"button": "workspace:1.0.0"
}
}
The button dependency will normally be installed by creating a symlink in the node_modules directory of card, pointing to the development directory for button.
But what if button specifies react in its peerDependencies? If all projects in the monorepo use the same version of react, then there is no problem. But what if button is required by card that uses react@16 and form that uses react@17? Normally you'd have to choose a single version of react and specify it using devDependencies of button. Symlinking does not provide a way for the react peer dependency to be satisfied differently by different consumers such as card and form.
The injected field solves this problem by installing a hard linked copies of button in the virtual store. To accomplish this, the package.json of card could be configured as follows:
{
"name": "card",
"dependencies": {
"button": "workspace:1.0.0",
"react": "16"
},
"dependenciesMeta": {
"button": {
"injected": true
}
}
}
Whereas the package.json of form could be configured as follows:
{
"name": "form",
"dependencies": {
"button": "workspace:1.0.0",
"react": "17"
},
"dependenciesMeta": {
"button": {
"injected": true
}
}
}
With these changes, we say that button is an "injected dependency" of card and form. When button imports react, it will resolve to react@16 in the context of card, but resolve to react@17 in the context of form.
Because injected dependencies produce copies of their workspace source directory, these copies must be updated somehow whenever the code is modified; otherwise, the new state will not be reflected for consumers. When building multiple projects with a command such as pnpm --recursive run build, this update must occur after each injected package is rebuilt but before its consumers are rebuilt. For simple use cases, it can be accomplished by invoking pnpm install again, perhaps using a package.json lifecycle script such as "prepare": "pnpm run build" to rebuild that one project. Third party tools such as pnpm-sync and pnpm-sync-dependencies-meta-injected provide a more robust and efficient solution for updating injected dependencies, as well as watch mode support.
peerDependenciesMeta
This field lists some extra information related to the dependencies listed in the peerDependencies field.
peerDependenciesMeta.*.optional
If this is set to true, the selected peer dependency will be marked as optional by the package manager. Therefore, the consumer omitting it will no longer be reported as an error.
Por ejemplo:
{
"peerDependencies": {
"foo": "1"
},
"peerDependenciesMeta": {
"foo": {
"optional": true
},
"bar": {
"optional": true
}
}
}
Tenga en cuenta que aunque bar no fue especificado en peerDependencies, está marcada como opcional. pnpm por lo tanto supondrá que cualquier versión de bar está bien. Sin embargo, foo es opcional, pero solo para la especificación de versión requerida.
publishConfig
Es posible anular algunos campos en el manifiesto antes de que el paquete esté. Los siguientes campos pueden ser anulados:
Para anular un campo, agregue la versión de publicación del campo a publishingConfig.
Por ejemplo, el siguiente package.json:
{
"name": "foo",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "src/index.ts",
"publishConfig": {
"main": "lib/index.js",
"typings": "lib/index.d.ts"
}
}
Se publicará como:
{
"name": "foo",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "lib/index.js",
"typings": "lib/index.d.ts"
}
publishConfig.executableFiles
De manera predeterminada, por razones de portabilidad, ningún archivo, excepto los que se enumeran en el campo bin, se marcará como ejecutable en el archivo del paquete resultante. The executableFiles field lets you declare additional files that must have the executable flag (+x) set even if they aren't directly accessible through the bin field.
{
"publishConfig": {
"executableFiles": [
"./dist/shim.js"
]
}
}
publishConfig.directory
También puede utilizar el campo publishConfig.directory para personalizar el subdirectorio publicado relativo al actual package.json.
Se espera que tenga una versión modificada del paquete actual en el directorio especificado (usualmente usando herramientas de compilación de terceros).
In this example the
"dist"folder must contain apackage.json
{
"name": "foo",
"version": "1.0.0",
"publishConfig": {
"directory": "dist"
}
}
publishConfig.linkDirectory
- Por defecto: true
- Tipo: Boolean
Cuando se establece en true, el proyecto se vinculará desde la ubicación publishConfig.directory durante el desarrollo local.
Por ejemplo:
{
"name": "foo",
"version": "1.0.0",
"publishConfig": {
"directory": "dist",
"linkDirectory": true
}
}
