Utilities for working with symlinked node_modules
Like path but for packages in a symlinked node_modules. Symlinked node_modules is a unique dependencies layout that
pnpm creates.
pnpm add @pnpm/dependency-path
const dependencyPath = require('@pnpm/dependency-path')
const registry = 'https://registry.npmjs.org/'
console.log(dependencyPath.isAbsolute('/foo/1.0.0'))
//> false
// it is confusing currently because relative starts with /.
// It will be changed in the future to vice versa
console.log(dependencyPath.resolve(registry, '/foo/1.0.0'))
//> registry.npmjs.org/foo/1.0.0
console.log(dependencyPath.relative(registry, 'registry.npmjs.org/foo/1.0.0'))
//> /foo/1.0.0
console.log(dependencyPath.refToAbsolute('1.0.1', 'foo', registry))
//> registry.npmjs.org/foo/1.0.1
console.log(dependencyPath.refToAbsolute('github.com/foo/bar/twe0jger043t0ew', 'foo', registry))
//> github.com/foo/bar/twe0jger043t0ew
console.log(dependencyPath.refToRelative('1.0.1', 'foo', registry))
//> /foo/1.0.1
console.log(dependencyPath.parse('/foo/2.0.0'))
//> { isAbsolute: false, name: 'foo', version: '2.0.0' }

The 'resolve' package is used to resolve module paths in Node.js. It provides similar functionality in terms of resolving paths but is more focused on module resolution rather than dependency path manipulation.
The 'dependency-tree' package generates a dependency tree for a given module. While it provides insights into dependencies, it is more focused on visualizing and analyzing dependency trees rather than manipulating dependency paths.
The 'read-pkg-up' package reads the closest package.json file. It is useful for retrieving package information but does not offer the same level of path manipulation capabilities as @pnpm/dependency-path.
