Compilation issue in DOT Web Components: Module not found: Can't resolve 'dot_embedded

Overview

When using Create-React-App or Next.js for a DOT Web project instead of Vite, an error occurs:

"Module not found: Can't " resolve 'dot_embedded_bg.wasm'

The following compilation errors occurred after executing the project:

⨯ ./node_modules/@innovatrics/dot-document-auto-capture/index.mjs:9796:0
Module not found: Can't resolve 'dot_embedded_bg.wasm'

The problem is related to ESM vs UMD module formats. The library provides two builds:

ESM: index.js / index.mjs

UMD: index.umd.js

The ESM build loads the wasm using import.meta -> import.meta only works in true ESM environments.

Some frameworks or configurations do not fully support import.meta in node_modules, so the bundler cannot resolve the .wasm file.

If your framework doesn't support import.meta, you must use the UMD build (index.umd.js ) instead.

Additionally, ensure that the wasm directory from your destination is also copied to the public directory.
