Describe the bug
When a Nuxt module imports from nuxt/app (such as importing useAsyncData or useRequestHeaders), this leads to runtime crash in production build:
Cannot find module '.../.output/server/node_modules/nuxt/dist/app/types/augments' imported from .../.output/server/node_modules/nuxt/dist/app/index.js
Additional context
- Interestingly enough, there is empty
augments.jsunder that path. If I edit the import statement to import from '.../augments.js' (not from '.../augments') it goes further. - With
{ ssr: false }innuxt.config.ts, the problem doesn't repeat. - The problem is also gone if the module is added to
build.transpile, but that has its own significant drawbacks.
