require() of ES Module is not supported

[Patrick Ludewig]

Using the following command
release-it prerelease --preRelease=alpha --gitlab.preRelease

gets me the following error:

ERROR require() of ES Module /node_modules/@release-it/bumper/index.js from /node_modules/import-from/index.js not supported.
Instead change the require of /node_modules/@release-it/bumper/index.js in /node_modules/import-from/index.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

My config:

"plugins": {
    "@release-it/bumper": {
      "out": {
        "file": "./shopify/config/settings_schema.json",
        "path": "[0].theme_version"
      }
    }
  }

my file, where i want to update the version number:

[
  {
    "name": "theme_info",
    "theme_version": "0.0.1",
  },
  ...
]

But no matter if i’m using a test file or a different path, i still get the error. i already have @release-it/bumper@esm installed.

Did you also npm install release-it@latest (v15)?

You can remove the @esm as the @latest of the plugin is also ESM.

Nice hint! Thank you, that solved my issue. I didn’t know i had to update release-it as well.
