Description
Description
Hello!
I wrote a custom cache handler for a Next.js app. The only import i use is createClient:
import {createClient} from 'redis';
const client = createClient({
url: process.env.REDIS_URL || 'redis://localhost:6379',
});
const result = await client
.withCommandOptions({signal: AbortSignal.timeout(10000)})
.get('key');
Even if i remove the .withCommandOptions(...) call, during the build i get the following error:
SyntaxError: Named export 'commandOptions' not found. The requested module 'redis' is a CommonJS module, which may not support all module.exports as named exports.
