pnpm with Workers Builds

What's the best way to use pnpm with Workers Builds? Build output suggests it's detected but not installed.

maybe try to clear the build cache or delete/regenerate the lockfile? Looks like a version mismatch from the log above

It seems I need to make .tools-versions match the installed versions, or override the installed versions to match .tools-versions. Too bad Workers Builds doesn't just pick up the versions in .tools-versions when setting up the environment.

@Kris it appears that you can set the desired pnpm version in the workers build config (like for cloudflare pages described here)

Setting the PNPM_VERSION for the build, also appears to force the use of pnpm over npm, even if there is no lockfile (TIL 🎉) And if you set the version to 9, it will pull the latest (v9.15.2) even if the build environment already has say v9.10 installed.

Thanks, yes, I've set PNPM_VERSION so an update doesn't break the build. I just wish it got the value from .tool-versions so I don't need to remember to update the build config when we change the version.
