ESM build contains keyword require crash web app

[joshuajiangdev]

Hi, I'm getting ReferenceError: require is not defined from my web at the line ul=require("js-cookie"). My vite build is using build targets modules, which according to this libs' package.json:

  "main": "cjs/index.js",
  "module": "esm/index.js",
  "browser": "dist/okta-auth-js.umd.js",

is going to load package from "esm/index.js", so I checked that file and could find the code var Cookies = require('js-cookie'); there. Curious if this is intended or a mistake to include keyword require keyword in an esm build.

Thanks for report @joshuajiangdev.

This issue is likely to be addressed in the the next major releases. Until then, you could either resolve umd bundle or use helper plugin.

Do you have timelines for the next release?

Another options is to let babel loader to transpile the ESM bundle, here is an example to follow.

Fixed in v6.2.
