Register: unable to resolve relative import with oxc-resolver

Context

When updating @swc-node/register from version 1.10.0 to 1.10.2, relative typescript imports are no longer resolved.

When using a relative import, I get:

node:internal/modules/run_main:129
    triggerUncaughtException(
    ^
Error: Cannot find module './shared': ./shared cannot be resolved in file:///home/runner/work/rust-cdk-serverless/rust-cdk-serverless/iac/index.ts

Investigation

The issue has probably been introduced by #798, more precisely here.

I'm a bit puzzled, because the call to resolver.async is done with the correct arguments according to the oxc-resolver docs:

• directory must be an absolute path to a directory where the specifier is resolved against. For CommonJS modules, it is the __dirname variable that contains the absolute path to the folder containing current module. For ECMAScript modules, it is the value of import.meta.url. In my case, it gives the expected value, i.e. /home/runner/work/rust-cdk-serverless/rust-cdk-serverless/iac
• identifier: in my case it is ./shared

This looks correct according to the oxc-resolver docs, but oxc-resolver cannot find it. Maybe the ts config is incorrectly passed to the resolver?

I will try and set up a minimal reproduction in the coming days.

Unfortunately, I can't use the latest version of register because oxc-resolver doesn't support Yarn PnP: https://github.com/oxc-project/oxc-resolver/issues/53 . Even a simple import in my setup e.g. import { $ } from 'execa' will fail:

node:internal/modules/run_main:129
    triggerUncaughtException(
    ^
Error: Cannot find module 'execa': execa cannot be resolved in file:///Users/mitran/Projects/vite-storybook-boilerplate/bin/bootstrap.ts

Node.js v20.15.0

Seems like in https://github.com/swc-project/swc/issues/3247#issuecomment-2212345627 , could there be plans to use another resolver?

@psychobolt I'm using pnpm, so maybe it is a separate issue

Thanks @Brooooooklyn! This fixed it for me.
