I added a workaround in 562159bed7d9073e26e9a5f4ed7d179a07794510 and it should work in all Node.js >= 14 now, but I think it would be good to require Node.js 16 and use import assertions instead. It would make the code much easier again.
Change the code to use modern import assertions (see https://simonplend.com/import-json-in-es-modules/ for example). Fortunately, those were backported to Node.js 16.14, so that's the new minimum required Node.js version.
Node.js requires import assertions for importing JSON modules as of v16 (see https://v8.dev/features/import-assertions). However,
config/index.js
is used both in the backend (Node.js) as well as in the frontend (Vue.js/Vite), and currently Vite doesn't seem to support import assertions, so it's not possible to make this work for both. Also, I think adding import assertions would break v14 compatibility.I will add a note to README that using v14 is recommended, and also add a
.node-version
file, but we should figure out how to work around this issue. I haven't done much research though, so I'm sure there's a solution for this.
