pnpm publish

Publishes a package to the registry.

pnpm [-r] publish [<tarball|folder>] [--tag <tag>]
     [--access <public|restricted>]

When publishing a package inside a workspace, the LICENSE file from the root of the workspace is packed with the package (unless the package has a license of its own).

You may override some fields before publish, using the publishConfig field in package.json. You also can use the publishConfig.directory to customize the published subdirectory (usually using third party build tools).

When running this command recursively (pnpm -r publish), pnpm will publish all the packages that have versions not yet published to the registry.

Options

--tag <tag>

Publishes the package with the given tag. By default, pnpm publish updates the latest tag.

For example:

# inside the foo package directory
pnpm publish --tag next
# in a project where you want to use the next version of foo
pnpm add foo@next

--access <public|restricted>

Tells the registry whether the published package should be public or restricted.
