v9.7.0: pnpm 9.7

Minor Changes

• Added pnpm version management. If the manage-package-manager-versions setting is set to true, pnpm will switch to the version specified in the packageManager field of package.json #​8363. This is the same field used by Corepack. Example:

  {
    "packageManager": "[email protected]"
  }

• Added the ability to apply patch to all versions #​8337.

  If the key of pnpm.patchedDependencies is a package name without a version (e.g. pkg), pnpm will attempt to apply the patch to all versions of the package. Failures will be skipped. If there's only one version of pkg installed, pnpm patch pkg and subsequent pnpm patch-commit $edit_dir will create an entry named pkg in pnpm.patchedDependencies. And pnpm will attempt to apply this patch to other versions of pkg in the future.

• Change the default edit dir location when running pnpm patch from a temporary directory to node_modules/.pnpm_patches/pkg[@​version] to allow the code editor to open the edit dir in the same file tree as the main project #​8379.

• Substitute environment variables in config keys #​6679.

Patch Changes

• pnpm install should run node-gyp rebuild if the project has a binding.gyp file even if the project doesn't have an install script #​8293.
• Print warnings to stderr #​8342.
• Peer dependencies of optional peer dependencies should be automatically installed #​8323.
