17.3k Views Asked by At

I'm getting this error:

If you want to include a polyfill, you need to: - add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "path": require.resolve("path-browserify") }' - install 'path-browserify' :

BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.

If you want to include a polyfill, you need to:

    - install 'path-browserify'
If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this:

But if I add those fallback in resolve :

  // main process
var main_config = {
    mode: isEnvProduction ? 'production' : 'development',
    entry: './src/main/main.ts',
    target: 'electron-main',
    resolve: {
      fallback: { 'path': require.resolve('path-browserify') },
      extensions: ['.jsx', '.js', 'ts'],
    },

I get the same kind of error:

So.... How to correctly resolve in webpack.config.js ?

It worked for me

adding more clarity to those who are not able to understand the above quoted inputs

Using "react": "^18.2.0", "react-scripts": "5.0.1",

Follow these steps:

  1. yarn add path-browserify

  2. Go to node_modules and look for react-scripts [as shown in the image below 2.a & 2.b (look for webpack.config.js); then search for resolve: in the webpack.config.js file and add this line (as seen in 2.c) {fallback:{path : require.resolve("path-browserify")} ] enter image description here

  3. save the file

  4. go the code where you had set the path.. comment and update as shown in the below image

enter image description here

  1. stop the application

  2. run yarn cache clean

  3. run yarn start .. it should work now

SOLVED.

Just adding

    resolve: {
      fallback: { 'path': require.resolve('path-browserify') },
      extensions: ['.jsx', '.js', '.tsx', '.ts'],
   }

also in the renderer part of the webpack configuration

you just need to install process make like this :npm install process
