Vite bundler errors with Brython

[ImageDeeply]

Is there a way to use Vite or other bundler in a project that uses Brython? I don't need it to manage the Brython code; just various node_modules used in unrelated code.

I have 2 independent projects that I'm trying to merge.

1. Brython
2. Javascript using Vite bundler

But Vite complains: 'the function x already defined' for cases like:

Function x(){}
    //Some code here

Function x(){
    //Function body
}

We tried editing some of the above out of brython.js but get an error: 'BRYTHON is not defined'

@PierreQuentel Any thoughts?

(And, for questions like this should I create a GitHub 'Issue' instead of Discussion item?)

[PierreQuentel]

No, sorry, I have no idea why this happens, and I don't have the energy to dive into yet another Javascript bundling tool. Hopefully someone else will.

Are there any bundlers that work with Brython?

[PierreQuentel]

I don't even know what a bundler is

[ImageDeeply]

I'm also not from the JavaScript world.

"modern browsers can load EcmaScript modules, at the time of writing their mechanism for resolving further dependencies is still too primitive to load collections of NPM-distributed modules. … Bundlers are tools that take a given main script (or in some cases multiple scripts), and produce a new, generally bigger, script that has all (or some) of the script's dependencies (and their dependencies, and so on) included."

And: https://vite.dev/guide/why for Vite vs tools like webpack, Rollup and Parcel

Brython has no dependency
