This means that Parcel Bundler has created the markets.js file with all dependencies bundled in that file.

Somehow plugin-functions-core tries to read this compiled/output file and require the dependencies.

How do I get it to just take the file as is?

This is the markets.js file.

As you can see, the dependencies (β€˜common/binance’) are bundled.

When I run it with node target/functions/markets.js then it runs without problems.

Hi @Industrial,

When Netlify bundles Functions, it tries to guess the dependencies tree by looking for any require() statement in the Functions files. We are currently lacking a way to exclude specific require() statements. There is a feature request describing this in details in This does not work with dynamic or conditional module imports Β· Issue #68 Β· netlify/zip-it-and-ship-it Β· GitHub.

In your case, the Parcel bundles includes the following line, so the algorithm assumes this file requires a sibling file ./common/binance. It does not understand that require() is an injected function, not the usual Node.js require(). This is a shortcoming from the current design of Netlify Functions bundling, which favors simplicity over edge cases like this one.

I have opened a feature request at This does not work with Parcel Β· Issue #206 Β· netlify/zip-it-and-ship-it Β· GitHub to better support Parcel.
