auto.config.ts breaks when tsconfig.json "module" is "es2015"

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

It seems that auto.config.ts as described in the docs doesn’t when user’s project specifies "module": "es2015" (not "commonjs") in its tsconfig.json.

This is a problem upstream in @endemolshinegroup/cosmiconfig-typescript-loader, but I wanted to leave this issue here for other people encountering the error.

To Reproduce

A fast way:

  1. Copy auto.config.ts to your nearest project with auto.
  2. Change your tsconfig.json module setting to one preserving ES6 imports (e.g. "es2015")

A way I’m 100% sure will crash as expected:

  1. Clone https://github.com/system-ui/theme-ui
  2. Checkout 3a92b715cb83481004dd91b8fe19d5147711411a
  3. Run yarn auto shipit

Expected behavior

Config copied from the docs works.

Environment information:

I don’t expect it to be relevant but info crashes too. Should info command crash when the config is broken?

You don’t realize how much time you saved me with auto. I made a first automatic stable release today (after using patch-package to work around this issue), and the only things I had to do were reformatting the changelog and writing an announcement on Discord. This a drastic improvement to my life. Thank you once again.

If you want to contribute a discord plugin I’d be all for it 😄
