ParseError: child_process

[derrickb]

Hi there,

My bundled file ends up running in an environment that has access to node modules. In one of my modules I have:
let spawn = require('child_process').spawn;

When running nollup -c I get this error:

ParseError: child_process
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'child_process'
    at parse (/node_modules/nollup/lib/index.js:93:23)
    at process.internalTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:77:7)

I've tried setting preferBuiltins to both true and false in the node resolve plugin options, but neither works.

Is this something that can be fixed?

Can you show me your rollup.config.js?

Have you tried using global.require or using an alias for require instead?

Here's an example of using native require in an Electron app: https://github.com/PepsRyuu/mocha-istanbul-ui/blob/master/src/ext/CoverageInstrumenter.js

Using global.require worked! Thank you
