When using '*' as package definition for a pnpm workspace, the post-install script hangs until it triggers an OOM.
Looks like it's spawning infinite shells to build itself recursively.

To reproduce:

  • clone the sample repository
  • prune your local pnpm store (pnpm store prune)
  • install dependencies using pnpm (pnpm install)

Want to shed some light on this matter, I think this is a pnpm issue.

A work around is to somehow ignore the postinstall script and manually run it. In my case, I have to fork the repo, rename the postinstall script to "postinstall-custom". Then after pnpm install, I will go directly to the postman-code-generators and run pnpm postinstall-custom

My setup:

  • pnpm v9
  • monorepo using turborepo
