Error: Cannot statically analyse 'require(…, …)' in line 16

See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69898244/cannot-statically-analyse-require-in-line-16

Problem:

When importing markdown-toc in nextjs I am getting the issue. /pages/index.js

import toc from "markdown-toc";

Then I got the below error

./node_modules/markdown-toc/lib/utils.js Cannot statically analyse 'require(…, …)' in line 16

Why:

require gets overwritten by the utils assignment here:

'use strict';

/**
 * Module dependencies
 */

var diacritics = require('diacritics-map');
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
var fn = require;
require = utils;

/**
 * Lazily required module dependencies
 */

require('concat-stream', 'concat');

Any update on this?

I'm having the same error when importing the library in an Angular 14 application...

I don't believe there will be, there are > 50 open issues and no update in the last 5 years.

This fixed the problem but maybe you have to mess with dependencies...

Copy the library and put it in another folder to edit the source of it, then remove this:

var fn = require;
require = utils;

And replace all the require(..., ...) with utils(..., ...) like this:

utils('concat-stream', 'concat');
utils('gray-matter', 'matter');
utils('list-item', 'li');
utils('markdown-link', 'mdlink');
utils('minimist');
utils('mixin-deep', 'merge');
utils('object.pick', 'pick');
utils('remarkable', 'Remarkable');
utils('repeat-string', 'repeat');
utils('strip-color');

Hope it helps!

Ok, I think I have a better solution. Try this: "markdown-toc-unlazy" https://www.npmjs.com/package/markdown-toc-unlazy And if you don't need to work with cli you can delete the file cli.js and in the libs/utils.js file remove this line at the start: var concat = require('concat-stream');.

Hope this helped you!
