PM2 API connection error in Next.js 14: 'Module not found: Can't resolve term.js

[arunpt]

What's going wrong?

I was trying to utilize the pm2 API for a Next.js project, but when I imported it into the API directory and connected it, an exception was thrown: "Module not found: Can't resolve 'term.js'."

How could we reproduce this issue?

Create a nextjs 14 app using create-next-app and install pm2. After installation inside /app/api/test/route.ts write a simple route as below.

import { NextResponse } from "next/server";
import pm2 from "pm2";

export async function GET(request: Request) {
  pm2.connect((err) => console.log(err));
  return NextResponse.json({});
}
