wrangler: not found (npx error in pnpm repository)

[aaronadamsCA]

After switching our repository from Yarn to pnpm, npx wrangler@2 fails to download Wrangler. If there is a local Wrangler v2 dependency, the action will run it, but otherwise it fails.

(Yes that's a screenshot of a fork, but it's not behind any commits.)

Our workaround for now will be to install Wrangler in each package that needs to run this action.

Hey,
You might want to try changing your image from ubuntu-latest to ubuntu-20.04 and adding the environment variable NODE_VERSION with 18.15.0.

We've already managed to work around this with the local package dev dependency, it's just interesting that npx breaks under pnpm.

Some potential solutions:

• Detect the current package manager, then use npx, yarn dlx, or pnpm dlx as appropriate.
• Run the Wrangler CLI programmatically by directly importing its main program.

I'd be happy to give any of these a shot in a PR.

Hmm, this is fun...

We do have an unstable publish API now exposed we could use - https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/blob/main/packages/wrangler/src/api/pages/publish.tsx

This supports all the options we currently support + #76 which is nice

I'll need to play around with it and see if we can make it work nicely.
