Module not found: Can't resolve 'child_process'

[dhythm]

After upgrading to 0.44.4 for my codebase, there is an error like the below,
./node_modules/esbuild/lib/main.js shows Module not found: Can't resolve 'child_process'.

It may come from next.js (e.g. vercel/next.js#31038), but not sure why it happens.
The app created by blitz new works well with 0.44.4, so I check configs like babel.config.js, blitz-end.d.ts, blitz.config.ts and tsconfig.json. However, I haven't resolved the issue yet.

Does anyone face the same problem and resolve it?

By the way, I added

      config.resolve.fallback = {
        ...config.resolve.fallback,
        child_process: false,
        fs: false,
      }

to webpack in blitz.config.ts, then the issue is gone but another error happens 🤦‍♂️ (and the app from blitz new doesn't have this config...)

The error suggests that some server code landed on the client (where there's no child_process). Do you have a repo with reproduction?

I'm checking the repo with the above advice, and the error would come from app/components/core/index.ts
(Because the error is gone when I remove stuff that import app/components/core.)

export {
  Checkbox,
  Collapse,
  createTheme,
  Divider,

  StylesProvider,

export type { Shadows } from "@material-ui/core/styles/shadows"
export { ErrorComponent } from "blitz"
export type { FieldState, FormApi } from "final-form"

So, now checking which export cause the error 🙏

[dhythm]

The repo would work well when I delete export { ErrorComponent } from "blitz" from app/components/core/index.ts.
Thanks for your kind advice @beerose 🙇‍♂️

I'm glad you solved it @dhythm, but I'm wondering why ErrorComponent caused the issue 🤔 It's a React component: https://github.com/blitz-js/blitz/blob/canary/nextjs/packages/next/pages/_error.tsx#L29, which should behave fine on the client (and most likely it's used in _app or _document in your app). Feel free to open an issue if it causes some other problems.

I'm getting the same error. I feel the issue might be related to me using Next 13, App, Router
