Maintained fork of Js-Brecht/gatsby-plugin-pnpm.

Fork status

This repository is actively maintained by nekobato as a continuation fork. Upstream credits are preserved, and development continues in this fork.

Description

This plugin configures Webpack module and loader resolution for packages installed via pnpm.

When using pnpm, Gatsby builds may fail because pnpm’s node_modules structure differs from npm/yarn. This plugin updates Webpack resolution so Gatsby can resolve dependencies correctly.

Compatibility

• Node.js: >=20
• Gatsby: >=5
• Package format: ESM-first

What’s updated in this fork

• Published package name is now @nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm.
• Repository and issue tracker now point to nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm.
• Added compatibility for modern pnpm virtual stores by reading node_modules/.modules.yaml and resolving virtualStoreDir automatically (including custom virtual-store-dir values).

Installation

pnpm add -D @nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm

Add it to gatsby-config.js:

// gatsby-config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [`@nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm`],
};

Migration from upstream package

Replace the old package:

pnpm remove gatsby-plugin-pnpm
pnpm add -D @nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm

And update your Gatsby config from gatsby-plugin-pnpm to @nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm.

Extended usage

Option: include

Use this option to add extra module resolution targets.

• Package names:
  • Add package names that Webpack should resolve.
  • If strict: true, included package names must be direct dependencies of your project.
• Directory paths:
  • Add directories that contain modules or loaders.
  • Relative paths are resolved from process.cwd().
  • Paths must point to directories.

Option: projectPath

• Default: process.cwd().
• Use this when your project root differs from the process cwd.
• Relative paths are resolved from process.cwd().

Option: strict

• Default: true.
• true: Resolve using project-scoped pnpm behavior.
• false: Use Node module resolution and walk up parent directories.

Available options

Example:

// gatsby-config.js
const path = require('path');

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    {
      resolve: `@nekobato/gatsby-plugin-pnpm`,
      options: {
        projectPath: path.dirname(__dirname),
        include: [`my-awesome-package`, `path/to/my/private/webpack/loaders`],
        strict: true,
      },
    },
  ],
};
