[BABEL]: Cannot find module 'node:fs'

[iGroza]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch react-native-dotenv@3.4.6 for the project I'm working on.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/react-native-dotenv/index.js b/node_modules/react-native-dotenv/index.js

I am also facing the same issue

Hi I made this change recently on purpose. Please do not use this library as a production dependency. Use it as a dev dependency. The library is not broken.

same issue

[goatandsheep]

Please confirm that you installed as a dev dependency not prod dependency

[goatandsheep]

Some folks here are saying that making it devDependency is not fixing it. I suppose it could be because of the recent change from fs to node:fs and path to node:path but I'm not sure why and I'm not sure if there's another answer we're overlooking

[goatandsheep]

Ok I have an idea now of what the issue might be. node:fs is a feature of node >18.x . Since LTS versions of 14.x and 16.x are still in maintenance, I will revert this as long as someone can identify that upgrading their node version fixes the issue. I will create a draft PR for now.

I'm also seeing this on a new project-- node version is 18.12.1 LTS and seeing the same error regardless of prod v dev dependency injection.

Same issue here and it was installed as a DEV dependency.

[goatandsheep]

Ok I will reverse the change as it seems to be a bug not usage issue

[goatandsheep]

I have reverted this in 3.4.7 . Please let me know if the issue persists.
