compatibility_flags = [ "nodejs_compat" ] not working

I get this message even after adding this flag to the wrangler.toml file

The package "http" wasn't found on the file system but is built into node.
Add "node_compat = true" to your wrangler.toml file to enable Node.js compatibility.

even when using different compatibility dates, currently with compatibility_date = "2023-08-15" I have also tried the legacy node_compat = true flag instead of the new compatibility_flags = [ "nodejs_compat" ] setting. Also tried running it with both and it gets mad. Also tried installing the packages manually and it keeps erroring out. Is there anything I'm doing wrong with this flag? How am I supposed to use it exactly? This is all caused by trying to include the googleapis package that has http2 (its the one thing that crashes with the legacy flag. With the new flag about 50 things show the "Add "node_compat = true" " flag

Some pointers would be useful, thanks! =]

Hello, I’m Allie!•15mo ago

IIRC, neither node_ nor nodejs_compat have support for XMLHttpRequest

Is there a flag I could add?

Hello, I’m Allie!•15mo ago

No, I think it is one of the APIs that you have to write your way around

MigmacOP•15mo ago

RIP, its a googleapis import

Hello, I’m Allie!•15mo ago

No, I mean that can either find an alternative to googleapis that uses Fetch, or write it yourself
