I've got the same problem.

Could either of you provide a minimal reproduction using StackBlitz or a similar service?

[davidmyersdev]

I think adding support for subpath matching should solve this issue. It's now on my todo list.

Hi - I encountered a similar issue which I have recreated
Here on stacklitz.

npm run dev or npm run build to see the error.

[vite-plugin-sveltekit-compile] Could not load /home/projects/vitejs-vite-wp5msv/node_modules/node-stdlib-browser/esm/mock/empty.js/promises (imported by node_modules/path-scurry/dist/mjs/index.js): ENOTDIR: not a directory, open '/home/projects/vitejs-vite-wp5msv/node_modules/node-stdlib-browser/esm/mock/empty.js/promises'

[develowper]

same issue when useing webdriverio, or puppeteer packages (web driver automation libraries)

just import them
import {remote} from 'webdriverio'

and these are places that vite stuck:

node_modules/webdriverio/build/utils/index.js:1:15:
1 │ import fs from 'node:fs/promises';

node_modules/fetch-blob/streams.cjs:14:40:
14 │ Object.assign(globalThis, require('node:stream/web'))

[davidmyersdev]

After looking into this more, I think the best solution is to either use the new overrides feature (which would allow you to use your own polyfill for fs) or to externalize the dependency using something like vite-plugin-externalize-deps.

[UndarkAido]

I'm trying to add @xmcl/resourcepack to a Vite Three.js project and I'm utterly failing. You say to use overrides or to externalize the dependency but how would I actually do that?
