Description

I import markdownlint in a browser build using parcel (the point is to provide markdown linting to some codemirror editor). Something like:

import markdownlint from "markdownlint"

async function m(view) {
    return await markdownlint.promises.markdownlint({
        strings: {
            current: view.state.doc.sliceString(0),
        },
        config: {
            MD013: { // line length
                code_block_line_length: 92,
                code_blocks: true,
                heading_line_length: 92,
                headings: true,
                line_length: 92,
                stern: false,
                strict: false,
                tables: false,
            },
            MD041: false, // first line heading
            MD047: false, // single trailing newline
        },
    })
}

No problem using v0.27. But from v0.28.1 i get at build time:

@parcel/core: Failed to resolve 'markdownlint-micromark' from './.yarn/cache/markdownlint-npm-0.28.1-7ecbfb2613-d606e3f069.zip/node_modules/markdownlint/helpers/micromark.cjs'

  .../.yarn/cache/markdownlint-npm-0.28.1-7ecbfb2613-d606e3f069.zip/node_modules/markdownlint/helpers/micromark.cjs:9:13
     8 |   // @ts-ignore
  >  9 | } = require("markdownlint-micromark");
  >    |             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    10 |
    11 | /**

I guess it has something to do with CommonJS vs ES6 packaging, but I couldn't find a workaround.

Environment

parcel 2.8.3 to build a browser app (not node.js)

MDL Version
0.28.1

Expected Behavior

build successful

Actual Behavior

build fails: parcel unable to resolve markdownlint-micromark lib/

You should be able to load it with a script tag like the demo does:

Or maybe you are not using the browser build? In which case, I'm not sure why your scenario is different than standard Node dependency resolution?

For example: github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint-cli2@0654309961
