Cannot find module 'entities/dist/decode.js' from 'node_modules/@vue/compiler-core/dist/compiler-core.cjs.js'

[yashjainyj]

Vue version

3.4.37

Link to minimal reproduction

https://github.com/yashjainyj/vue_Module_Issue

Steps to reproduce

clone my repo
and run below command
yarn run test:unit

What is expected?

all jest test case should be resolved and run successfully

What is actually happening?

My Jest unit tests are failing

It appears that the vue package relies on an external dependency called entities. In the entities package, the decode.js file is missing from the dist folder.

However, the entities package has been updated and now contains two sub-folders, commonjs and esm, within the dist folder,

where decode.js can be found. The https://github.com/VUE package has not yet updated its path to reflect these changes.

It was updated in ea190f2 and the paths are updated accordingly. The file also can be correctly resolved from dist/compiler-core.cjs.js when required from plain Node.js. It seems this is an issue with Jest's resolver rather than a Vue issue.

Thanks for your response.

Since I didn't declare the entities in package.json, and Vue is internally using vue/compiler-core which relies on entities, I'm unable to update the path for these dependencies.

As a temporary fix, I've set the Vue version to 3.4.27 without the caret (^) to prevent automatic updates.

I'm looking for a permanent solution to this issue.

Thank you.

I have the same issue not using Jest but Mocha.

Did you try the below solution

No, did not try this but I am sure it works – I am getting the error in a MR for a dependency upgrade, the error is not in our production branch.
