Error: Cannot find module 'worker-loader!./build/pdf.worker.js'

See original GitHub issue

import pdfjs from "pdfjs-dist/webpack.js";

results in:

Error: Cannot find module ‘worker-loader!./build/pdf.worker.js’

npm list webpack worker-loader pdfjs-dist

+-- pdfjs-dist@2.0.943 
| `-- worker-loader@2.0.0  deduped
+-- webpack@4.35.0 
`-- worker-loader@2.0.0

What could be a reason for that? The suggestion was:

You can use the pdfjs-dist/webpack module for PDF.js autoconfiguration. 😄
