@sokra Where should one add this output.globalObject? |

filename: 'bundle.js'
publicPath: 'http://localhost:3000',
globalObject: 'this'

I ran into this as well, while doing some research I think I may have found a fix, previously implemented in webpack-dev-server. I believe this issue is relevant. if so, simply changing window to self should fix the issue |

In case this helps anyone, if you are hitting this error in your web worker itself (from your application code using |
This addresses this comment that the workers plugin is no longer working in next@7: vercel/next-plugins#218 (comment) This is rooted in this issue, in which the fix is to configure webpack to handle non-window global objects in the client in order for it to internally handle references to the global: webpack/webpack#6642 This next plugin is meant to handle files written as WebWorkers, in which `window` as the global is undefined (in lieu of `self`), so I've decided to explicitly fallback to `self` as the global object.
