Exception: Cannot find module 'carbites/treewalk' about carbites

@naftalimurgor Yeah, it was puzzling to me as well. In any case, I was able to find a workaround and hopefully this works for you as well. Instead of using this library, I've removed it an am now just using the NFT Storage API. Before, I was doing something like this:

const cid = await client.storeBlob(new Blob([file]))

Now I'm doing this:

const { body } = await got.post('https://api.nft.storage/upload', {
      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${YOUR_API_KEY}` },
      body: file,
})
const cid = JSON.parse(body).value.cid

Note: I'm using got as my HTTP library, but you can use node-fetch, Axios, or whatever http tooling you prefer.

Hope this helps!

In other cases we've found the problem to be because the library is being bundled with webpack 4.

Webpack 4 does not support package.json exports field so is unable to resolve the dependency.

If you can't upgrade to webpack 5, you can use the prebuilt library:

import { NFTStorage } from 'nft.storage/dist/bundle.esm.min.js'

Wow, thanks for the insight. Let me try to using that approach. Will let you know in case of any issues.

My team is also running into this issue as well (node@16), which I believe is because carbites is an ESM-only library. Our build can't resolve the module.

@jakerainis At first I thought it was a problem a problem with Nodejs version. Has your team been able to upload the NFT artifacts using any other means? I'm looking to upload over 1200 images but can't seem to wrap my head around this issue yet.
