Buffer is not defined in react-pdf
I try to use the react-pdf library to generate pdf.
But when I do this I have an error like this :
BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default. This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.
If you want to include a polyfill, you need to: - add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "assert": require.resolve("assert/") }' - install 'assert' If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this: resolve.fallback: { "assert": false } resolve 'assert' in 'C:\Users\SMAX\OneDrive\Projets Autres\exxotax_react\node_modules\browserify-zlib\lib'
Now, after installing some packages the React/Webpack is compiled from npm run start. But I have the following error :
Buffer is not defined And nothing appear on screen.
How can I fix it ? I tried :
- Install all libraries needed
- Watch on internet some solution
The only solution I saw was somethin like :
Creating a webpack.config.js and add :
resolve: {
extensions: [ '.ts', '.js' ],
fallback: {
"stream": require.resolve("stream-browserify"),
"buffer": require.resolve("buffer")
} },
But how can I add this lines in the config file ? Do I need a new config file/package.json ? If yes how can I do ?
Thanks a lot !
To extend create-react-app webpack config, you will need to use craco or rewired instead of react-scripts
