* feat: publish base docker image to GHCR Adds a Dockerfile (debian:stable-slim + pnpm standalone binary) and a release-triggered workflow that builds multi-arch images and pushes to ghcr.io/pnpm/pnpm. Users who need Node.js can install it inside the container via `pnpm runtime set node <version>`. Refs #11300 * docs: add docker/README.md * chore(cspell): add buildx to dictionary * docs: mention devEngines.runtime as alternative to pnpm runtime set * fix(docker): pin base image, verify tarball sha256, harden download - Pin `debian:stable-slim` to a digest for reproducibility. - Compute pnpm tarball SHA256 in the workflow and verify it inside the build, detecting tampered artifacts regardless of what `pnpm --version` reports. - Download the tarball to disk with `--retry` instead of `curl | tar` for resilience under multi-arch QEMU builds. - README: use `--load` so the local test image is available to `docker run`. * chore(cspell): sort dictionary additions * fix(docker): address Copilot review feedback - Include $PNPM_HOME/bin on PATH so pnpm-installed globals (node, etc.) are discoverable, and make $PNPM_HOME writable for non-root users. - Document that `pnpm runtime set node` needs `-g` to install globally. - Pass workflow inputs via env: instead of inlining GitHub expressions into shell, and validate the version string before use. * fix(docker): install libatomic1 for pnpm standalone binary The pnpm linux standalone binary dynamically links against libatomic.so.1, which is not present in debian:stable-slim by default. Without it, `pnpm --version` fails during the build with: pnpm: error while loading shared libraries: libatomic.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Caught by local build testing.
pnpm base Docker image
Official base image for pnpm, published to GitHub Container Registry.
ghcr.io/pnpm/pnpm
Based on debian:stable-slim with the pnpm standalone binary. Node.js is not bundled — install the version you need inside your own image with pnpm runtime set node <version> -g (the -g flag makes node available on PATH for subsequent layers and at runtime).
Tags
| Tag | Meaning |
|---|---|
<version> |
Exact, immutable (e.g. 11.0.0). Includes prereleases. |
<major> |
Tracks the latest stable release within that major (e.g. 11). |
latest |
Most recent stable pnpm release. Not updated for prereleases. |
Supported platforms
linux/amd64, linux/arm64.
Usage
Install Node.js explicitly with pnpm runtime set:
FROM ghcr.io/pnpm/pnpm:latest
RUN pnpm runtime set node 22 -g
WORKDIR /app
COPY . .
RUN pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
CMD ["node", "index.js"]
Or let pnpm install Node.js from devEngines.runtime in your package.json:
{
"devEngines": {
"runtime": {
"name": "node",
"version": "22.x",
"onFail": "download"
}
}
}
FROM ghcr.io/pnpm/pnpm:latest
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json pnpm-lock.yaml ./
RUN pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
COPY . .
CMD ["pnpm", "start"]

Release
Images are built and pushed by .github/workflows/docker.yml on release: published, or manually via workflow_dispatch. The build fails if pnpm --version in the image doesn't match the PNPM_VERSION build-arg.
