github/core package fails build because of exports map

[43081j]

The @github/core package has the following exports:

  "exports": {
    ".": {
      "types": "./lib/core.d.ts",
      "import": "./lib/core.js"
    }
  }

In a project which has type: "module", and simply import * as core from '@github/core', we get the following error:

ncc: Version 0.38.4
ncc: Compiling file index.js into ESM
ncc: Using typescript@5.9.3 (local user-provided)
Error: Module not found: Error: Package path . is not exported from package /code/node_modules/@actions/core (see exports field in /code/node_modules/@actions/core/package.json)
Did you mean './@actions/core'?

im guessing this is because whatever throws this error is looking for a default export rather than import. or it is mistakenly looking up the non-existent CJS entrypoint.

im not sure what dependency of ncc throws this error so i haven't managed to debug it myself.

Which version of @actions/core are you using? I believe the packages of the @actions environment introduced some changes that are not backwards-compatible.

I encountered the same issue when moving from @actions/core 2.0.2 to @actions/core 3.0.0. It works fine with 2.0.2 but fails with the exact same error with 3.0.0.

Error: Module not found: Error: Package path . is not exported from package [...]/node_modules/@actions/core (see exports field in [...]/node_modules/@actions/core/package.json)
Did you mean './@actions/core'?
Requests that should resolve in the current directory need to start with './'.
Requests that start with a name are treated as module requests and resolve within module directories (node_modules).
If changing the source code is not an option there is also a resolve options called 'preferRelative' which tries to resolve these kind of requests in the current directory too.

Yup 3.x here too.

But their exports are correct so it seems like we need to support it somehow it in ncc
