TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'exports' of object '#<Object>'

Current Behavior

I tried to import ReactPlayer to my react rails app. I added the line below: import ReactPlayer from 'react-player' and the page cannot be loaded. I saw the error below in console:

TypeError: Cannot assign to read only property 'exports' of object '#<Object>'
    at Module.<anonymous> (utils.js:126:1)
    at ./node_modules/react-player/lib/utils.js (utils.js:368:1)
    at __webpack_require__ (index-07d9361752105ff10b68.js:64:30)
    at ./node_modules/react-player/lib/players/index.js (index.js:81:1)
    at __webpack_require__ (index-07d9361752105ff10b68.js:64:30)

    at __webpack_require__ (index-07d9361752105ff10b68.js:64:30)

It fails at this line: module.exports = __toCommonJS(utils_exports);

Expected Behavior

I want to use ReactPlayer to play a video but it fails at importing

Steps to Reproduce

I just add the line below into my app and the page error out: import ReactPlayer from 'react-player'

Environment

• URL attempting to play: localhost
• Browser: Chrome
• Operating system: macOS 13.5.1

I don't see anyone facing the same issue, I guess it might not be related to the package. But I don't know how to debug and proceed. Please help, thanks
