Does not work in node as advertised

[xnuk]

With given package.json:

{
	"type": "module",
	"packageManager": "pnpm@7.1.2",
	"dependencies": { "sql.js": "1.7.0" }
}

Here's the result of node -e 'require("sql.js")()':

I'm using node@18.5.0 with ES modules and had to explicitly set a path to the wasm binary:

  const wasmBinary = await readFile(new URL("../node_modules/sql.js/dist/sql-wasm.wasm", import.meta.url));
  const SQLJS = await initSql({
    wasmBinary,
  });

Hope that helps!

@jmandzik I have failed to use the option you mentioned above.
#522

The problem on my side is that the readFile does not allow to take more than one arguments. Which readFile module that you once import?

@sigridjineth

The problem on my side is that the readFile does not allow to take more than one arguments.

Read again carefully, there's two parameters in new URL(..., ...), not await readFile(...)

• The URL constructor can have two parameters: one for relative path, and one for base path.
• Actually, Node.js' readFile can have two parameters: 2nd parameter for file options.

I am facing the same issue on an existing project where the only change I did was in node version to 20.

Seems like Node 18 issue now.
