Cannot find module 'gsap/MorphSVGPlugin'

Hello folks 👋,

 

I have a problem importing gsap plugin. When I try to bundle (with vite) my project I have this error :

[vite-ssg] An internal error occurred.
[vite-ssg] Please report an issue, if none already exists: https://github.com/antfu/vite-ssg/issues
node:internal/process/promises:246
          triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
          ^

Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find module '/Users/user/Documents/vite-project/node_modules/gsap/MorphSVGPlugin' imported from /Users/user/Documents/vite-project/.vite-ssg-temp/main.mjs
Did you mean to import gsap/MorphSVGPlugin.js?

}

I am importing gsap package like this in a js file :

import gsap from 'gsap'
import MorphSVGPlugin from 'gsap/MorphSVGPlugin'
gsap.registerPlugin(MorphSVGPlugin)

of course I have access to the premium plugins (package.json)

  "dependencies": {
    "gsap": "npm:@gsap/shockingly@^3.10.4",
      ...
  },

I tried different type of imports (in the js file) without success:

import gsap from 'gsap'
import MorphSVGPlugin from 'gsap/dist/MorphSVGPlugin' // or 'gsap/MorphSVGPlugin.js' or 'gsap/dist/MorphSVGPlugin.js'
gsap.registerPlugin(MorphSVGPlugin)

even :

import { gsap, MorphSVGPlugin } from 'gsap/all' // or 'gsap/all.js'
gsap.registerPlugin(MorphSVGPlugin)

Thank you in advance for your response ! 🙂

This is a vite issue, not a GSAP issue. I've used GSAP + Vite w/o issue more than once without issue. Try disabling SSG and see if it will let you build
