Describe the bug

When we launch build command of the cli with commonjs and the flag --fileType=js

mesh build --fileType=js

the build commands fails because it are not treating files as commonjs library. Moreover, without fileType=js it only generates ts files and is not traspiling to js files.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. In the repository, change build command to mesh build --fileType=js
2. Execute npm run build
3. Launch the next error:

Expected behavior

Generate correct commonjs package with js files (not only TS files).

Environment:

• OS: Windows 10
• @graphql-mesh/cli: 0.82.33
• "@graphql-mesh/openapi: 0.36.0
• NodeJS: 19.8.1

Additional context

It happens with other samples of commonjs. It seems that schemaWithAnnotations.js file is not treated correctly as commonjs file and it treats it as ESM module.

@diegoarda its been some time but did you find any workaround on that one?

@gabel finally we didn't work with Graphql and I left the use of the library aside. I'm sorry :(
