V8 require() of ES modules is not supported

[weilinzung]

We have a custom build tool that used v7.1.0 but does not work with the M1 chip, same as https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-imagemin/issues/369.

Then we went to v8.0.0, then we got require() of ES modules is not supported error.

And because have to use commonjs to compile with another custom binary, so we can't change to es module for compiling.

Could we get some solutions you may suggest?

I solved this problem by downgrading.

npm install --save-dev gulp-imagemin@7.1.0

Stay happy.

gulp-imagemin@7.1.0 has a security issue listed by npm audit

trim-newlines  <3.0.1
Severity: high
Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in trim-newlines - https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-7p7h-4mm5-852v

perhaps the maintainer could create a separate branch for version 7 so we could update it?

Hi!

Same here, I need help I can't make v8 works...

I can't find documentation except this.

My code doesn't return error but do not compile images :

function images(cb) {
  async () => {
    imagemin = await import('gulp-imagemin');
  },
  () => src([paths.images + '**/*'])
    .pipe(imagemin.default([
      imagemin.gifsicle({interlaced: true}),
      imagemin.mozjpeg({progressive: true}),
      imagemin.optipng({optimizationLevel: 5}),
    ]))
    .pipe(dest(paths.assets + paths.images))
    .pipe(livereload());
    cb();
}

exports.default = series(
  images,
);

Thanks!
