Upgrading to the latest version 4.1.0 is not compatible with *.mjs files.

[ChrisGao2016]

Our project uses [email protected] and imports the xlsx.mjs file. However, beginning with version 4.1.0, the dependency switched to node-stdlib-browser, causing the buffer to downgrade to version 5.x. The buffer 5.x version only includes the common module, which is not compatible with the project's reference to *.mjs files, leading to webpack build errors.

@ChrisGao2016 [email protected] also seems to use commonjs. Are you sure your issue is resolved by downgrading to [email protected]?

Maybe there's a different cause?

@niksy Worth updating the buffer package anyways?

Let’s see if this really is issue with buffer module, but I don’t see why not, except I would like to bump it to major version. I’m not sure if this can break other dependants.

Same bug here. Any solution?

I was able to solve the issue by setting the yaml inter-dependency version to the latest. This solved the issue of the breaking change where it could not find an index.js file. The error I was seeing was:

ERROR in ./node_modules/yaml/browser/dist/warnings-df54cb69.js 24:15-21 Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '[workspace/project]/node_modules/buffer' in '[workspace/project]/node_modules/yaml/browser/dist' Did you mean 'index.js'? BREAKING CHANGE: The request '[workspace/project]/node_modules/buffer' failed to resolve only because it was resolved as fully specified (probably because the origin is strict EcmaScript Module, e. g. a module with javascript mimetype, a '*.mjs' file, or a '*.js' file where the package.json contains '"type": "module"'). The extension in the request is mandatory for it to be fully specified. Add the extension to the request. resolve '[workspace/project]/node_modules/buffer' in '[workspace/project]/node_modules/yaml/browser/dist' using description file: [workspace/project]/node_modules/yaml/browser/dist/package.json (relative path: .)

I was able to solve it by setting this on my package.json
"resolutions": { "buffer": "6.0.3", "yaml":"2.7.0" },
