How to update the pnpm?

[haosmos]

pnpm is updated very often. how to update the pnpm correctly and safely? Run the curl -fsSL installation command curl -fsSL https://get.pnpm.io/install.sh | sh - ? Or in some other way?

I think pnpm add -g pnpm should work?

I recommend using the same script for updating pnpm that you used for installing it. So if you used the standalone script to install pnpm, then run the same script again and it will install the latest version of pnpm.

Hi @zkochan !

Thanks a lot for creating pnpm. Is absolutely great! My quick question...

Would you consider shipping a new CLI command that automatically and conveniently takes care of this for us?

Something like bun upgrade

https://bun.sh/docs/installation#upgrading

I currently use an alias that runs a copy of the https://get.pnpm.io/install.sh script but without running the setup command at the end.

I guess is a good workaround, but I'd love to have this option shipped officially.

Thanks!

P.S. I guess upgrade is not available since is an alias of update but whatever word fits best.
