Next.js does not bring over prebuilds folder into .next/server: "No native build was found for ..." about node-gyp-build HOT 8 CLOSED

Actually I want to say I will fix it not in the elegant way of making the tool be able to dynamically resolve the path but to add a special case. In the future more users using node-gyp-build might run into similar problems but for now I will do it like @styfle suggested in this comment vercel/nft#391 (comment)

from node-gyp-build.

are you passing the __dirname to the exported func? sounds like you are passing the wrong dir

Many thanks for your response.

Can I set up the __dirname to be different just for one dependency? I guess the __dirname is fine to be at .next/server? I guess the the desired outcome would be to have the prebuilds folder in the .next/server somehow.

Do you know any other project that uses node-gyp-built deps with prebuilds in the context of a Next.js? Maybe it would help to see how people resolve this issue...

You can just “hoist” all the prebuilds from node_modules into that folder if the deps are on latest node-gyp-build. Ie mb move node_modules/sodium-native/prebuilds into .next/server/prebuilds

in a later version all the prebuilds are named so you can have them all in the same folder

If I move them manually and run npm run dev it cleans the entire .next/server and repopulates it missing the files I just copied. It does not seem to persist. I guess somewhere Next.js needs to be informed about those. I don't know what building infrastructure Next.js uses, maybe there's webpack involved underneath but I am not sure.

The problem has been identified, it's with vercel's file tracing tool "nft". I will provide a PR tomorrow. If someone is having this problem go to the issue on vercel's side vercel/nft#391, I will therefore close his one. Thanks @mafintosh for the response :)

Will be fixed if all goes will with this issue resolution vercel/nft#391 with PR vercel/nft#392.
