Problem with compiling projects with nexe that use winston

Please tell us about your environment:

• winston version?
  • winston@2
  • winston@3
• node -v outputs: v8.11.3
• Operating System? Windows
• Language? ES6/7

What is the problem?

When I compile a project that uses winston with nexe project.js -o project.exe and use the integrated formatters, I get the error Cannot find module './format' or Cannot find module './combine.js'. When executing the project.js file directly everything works fine. The nexe compiling process didn’t show any errors.

There’s been a similar problem that was fixed with a newer release of winston. #178.

I had the same issue and I was importing the following:

import { createLogger, transports,format } from "winston";

I changed the import for format to

import { format } from "logform/dist/browser";

and that solved it for me.

I am using https://parceljs.org/ for packaging a lambda.

FYI: this error is also triggered when using Parcel (http://parceljs.org) with the --target node flag.

I still haven’t found a way to fix that in my case
