How to turn off yarn@2 PnP?

Question

I am using Yarn 2.0.0-rc.27 + workspaces + TypeScript and I want to turn PnP off and use node_modules again. I tried it with following setting in package.json:

"installConfig": {
  "pnp": false
},

However, Yarn uses PnP mode every time. Is there any option to turn it off?

Answer 1

I ran into a bunch of issues with Yarn 2 as well using the same stack. The solution is to create a .yarnrc.yml file with the following line:

nodeLinker: node-modules

This can also be done with following yarn command:

yarn config set nodeLinker node-modules
