CatalogMode

catalogMode

Added in: v10.12.1

• Default: manual
• Type: manual, strict, prefer

Controls if and how dependencies are added to the default catalog, when running pnpm add. There are three modes:

• strict - only allows dependency versions from the catalog. Adding a dependency outside the catalog's version range will cause an error.
• prefer - prefers catalog versions, but will fall back to direct dependencies if no compatible version is found.
• manual (default) - does not automatically add dependencies to the catalog.
