Support pnpm's lockfile when deploying

[redstrike]

I'm using PNPM and everything is great until I see a little problem while deploying to Vercel.
It seems Vercel's build process doesn't support pnpm-lock.yaml, so this info message always showing up.

info No lockfile found.

I wonder if Vercel can support PNPM's lock file?

@redstrike use a custom install command in your dashboard to do npx pnpm i

@cyrus-za thank you very much! I forgot that Vercel supports custom install command.

@cyrus-za this is my follow up. It doesn't work as expected. Vercel detects no-lockfile and will try to use yarn install instead.

[cyrus-za]

do you not commit your lockfile?

[redstrike]

@cyrus-za yes, we have to commit it? I see the lockfile has been uploaded to Vercel, is that not enough?
