ReferenceError: require is not defined in ES module scope, you can use import instead
This file is being treated as an ES module because it has a '.js' file extension and '/home/ibo/Dev/project/gitlab/front/proui/app/node_modules/.pnpm/react-query-rewind@2.1.5_@tanstack+react-query@5.45.1_react-dom@18.3.1_react@18.3.1/node_modules/react-query-rewind/package.json' contains "type": "module". To treat it as a CommonJS script, rename it to use the '.cjs' file extension.

Reproduction

pnpm dev

@abrahamibo I spent some time diving into this and I was surprised that nextjs 14 always defaults to importing the commonjs version of our package instead of the es6 version. I was able to get it to work by importing the component like import ReactQueryRewind from "../../node_modules/react-query-rewind/dist/esm/index.js";. With this change, our package worked as expected.

You're probably more familiar with this version of NextJS than I am so if you have any insight into why NextJs14 defaults to the cjs version, I'd love to hear it. Obviously we'd prefer the cjs/es resolution to happen automatically.

@abrahamibo One more thought. I was able to import the react query rewind with:

import dynamic from 'next/dynamic'

const ReactQueryRewind = dynamic(
  () => import('react-query-rewind').then((mod) => mod.default),
  { ssr: false }
)

I noticed that the error occurs when nextjs tries to render from the server. This should ensure it renders client side.
