pnpm-workspace.yaml

pnpm-workspace.yaml defines the root of the workspace and enables you to include / exclude directories from the workspace. By default, all packages of all subdirectories are included.

For example:

pnpm-workspace.yaml

packages:
  # specify a package in a direct subdir of the root
  - 'my-app'
  # all packages in direct subdirs of packages/
  - 'packages/*'
  # all packages in subdirs of components/
  - 'components/**'
  # exclude packages that are inside test directories
  - '!**/test/**'

The root package is always included, even when custom location wildcards are used.

Catalogs are also defined in the pnpm-workspace.yaml file. See Catalogs for details.

pnpm-workspace.yaml

packages:
  - 'packages/*'

catalog:
  chalk: ^4.1.2

catalogs:
  react16:
    react: ^16.7.0
    react-dom: ^16.7.0
  react17:
    react: ^17.10.0
    react-dom: ^17.10.0

packageConfigs

Added in: v11.0.0

Allows setting project-specific configuration for individual workspace packages. This replaces workspace project-specific .npmrc files.

packageConfigs can be specified as a map of package names to config objects:

pnpm-workspace.yaml

packages:
  - "packages/project-1"
  - "packages/project-2"
packageConfigs:
  "project-1":
    saveExact: true
  "project-2":
    savePrefix: "~"

Or as an array of pattern-matched rules:

pnpm-workspace.yaml

packages:
  - "packages/project-1"
  - "packages/project-2"
packageConfigs:
  - match: ["project-1", "project-2"]
    modulesDir: "node_modules"
    saveExact: true
