Description
Environment
nitropack: 2.12.6
node: 20.19.1
Reproduction
https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-zcdft7zb?file=package.json,server%2Froutes%2Findex.ts
Describe the bug
In dev mode the reproduction will work just fine. The event handler will return the JSON imported from a package.
After building and starting the app, the same event handler will throw an error:
cause: Error: Cannot find module '../data/patch.json'
Additional context
This happens because of this import in the event handler:
import data from 'css-tree/definition-syntax-data-patch'
Which looks like this:
import { createRequire } from 'module';
const require = createRequire(import.meta.url);
const patch = require('../data/patch.json');
export default patch;
It's requiring a file called patch.json, which is missing from the output:

Research direction
Start with the StackBlitz reproduction, package.json, and server/routes/index.ts, then inspect how the built output under .output/server/node_modules/css-tree is produced. Reproduce the difference between dev and build/start with the css-tree/definition-syntax-data-patch import. Done means the built app can load the imported JSON without the missing-module error.
