can-pnpm

can-pnpm is a npm package that detects the presence of pnpm in your project or system. If pnpm is not found, it provides information about other detected package managers.

Install

pnpm install can-pnpm
# or
npm install can-pnpm
# or
yarn add can-pnpm

Usage

import canPnpm from 'can-pnpm';

const result = await canPnpm();
console.log(result);

If pnpm is detected:

{
  canPnpm: true,
  reason: 'local lock file' | 'global installation'
}

If pnpm is not detected:

{
  canPnpm: false,
  otherManagers: [
    {
      name: 'yarn' | 'npm' | 'bun',
      detected: 'local lock file' | 'global installation'
    },
      // ... (other detected package managers)
  ]
}

How it works

1. The package first checks for a pnpm-lock.yaml file in the specified directory (or current working directory if not specified).
2. If the lock file is not found, it checks for a global pnpm installation.
3. If pnpm is not detected, it checks for the presence of other package managers (yarn, npm, and bun) by looking for their respective lock files and global installations.
