pnpm link in package dir: ERR_PNPM_LINK_BAD_PARAMS You must provide a parameter #4296
Description
pnpm version: 6.29.1
Code to reproduce the issue:
Run pnpm link in library directory.
My package.json in the directory of the library:
{
"name": "@my/library",
"version": "1.1.3",
"description": "",
"main": "lib/index.js",
"keywords": [],
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"devDependencies": {
"@babel/cli": "^7.16.8",
"@babel/core": "^7.16.12",
"@babel/preset-env": "^7.16.11",
"@babel/preset-react": "^7.16.7"
},
"peerDependencies": {
"react": "*"
},
"scripts": {
"watch": "babel --watch src --out-dir lib --copy-files",
"build": "babel src --out-dir lib --copy-files",
"prepare": "yarn run build",
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
"link": "yarn link react"
}
}
Expected behavior:
I interpret from this
Usage: pnpm link (in package dir)
pnpm link <pkg>
pnpm link <dir>
that running pnpm link in the directory of my library where package.json is located, should create a symbolic link from some system (?) node_modules directory to my library.
Actual behavior:
$ pnpm link
