pnpm version: 7.17.0

Code to reproduce the issue:

Clone my monorepo for example: https://github.com/woifes/node-monorepo

git clone https://github.com/woifes/node-monorepo
cd node-monorepo
pnpm install 
pnpm licenses list | wc -l   //935
pnpm licenses list ./packages/binarytypes/ | wc -l   //935
cd ./packages/binarytypes
pnpm licenses list | wc -l   //935

Expected behavior:

Since "binarytypes" has only one dependency which has no dependency by itself, it should only be shown this one dependency.

Actual behavior:

The output is the same for every directory(package) of a monorepo. In this case I showed it by counting the lines. The license situation can not be determined for the single packages inside a monorepo.

Additional information:

  • node -v prints: 18.0.0
  • Windows, macOS, or Linux?: Windows

Currently it lists the licenses for all dependencies in the PNPM-based project. Currently it is not possible to only get a list of licenses for a specific workspace in the project. This would be a feature enhancement

@weyert I am surprised it works in workspaces at all for you. I get this error  ERR_PNPM_UNSUPPORTED_PACKAGE_TYPE  Unsupported package resolution type for file:lib/art19-ad-rep_y3vhx3zpzli5z6ifkqpr2p764a

@weyert I just now published my package which implements my idea of a license report. It works in packages of monorepos too. It utilizes the pnpm list command to create the dependency tree.
Try it out if you like: license-report
