Next.js mjs setup issue

[TheCukitoDev]

Core or SDK?

Platform/SDK

Which part? Which one?

Next.js Docs (https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/nextjs/manual-setup/)

Description

Next.js comes by default with support only for ES6 so the mjs should be the default. Also I think while installing sentry with the wizard should install the ES6 version instead of the cjs version

Suggested Solution

Install the ES6 version instead of the cjs version or add a function that detects what version uses only reading package.json select what version install. Like if it says type: module install the es6 version or in the CLI ask what version should install.

Assigning to @getsentry/support for routing ⏲️

@TheCukitoDev are you referring to the cjs tab being selected by default in the docs?

[TheCukitoDev]

also but the main issue is while executing the wizzard doesen't cares about the project js specification. It always install the CJS version instead of the ES6 that nextjs uses.

@TheCukitoDev you are right, if no previous config was found we create a js file by default as this works with the majority of Next.js versions. We have this on our backlog 👍
