Commit 646fa4e3eefixed#10547 by
restricting optimisticLookupPackageJson to package.json files with a
"name" property, which effectively skipped over intermediate package.json
files with additional properties.
However, in Node.js 12.16.0 (Meteor 1.9.1+), modules evaluated natively by
Node are considered ECMAScript modules if the closest package.json file
has "type": "module" (or has an .mjs file extension). This poses a problem
for the module.useNode() trick (see packages/modules-runtime/server.js),
because ESM modules cannot be imported using require.
For example, recent versions of the @babel/runtime package have a
@babel/runtime/helpers/esm/package.json file for the ESM versions of its
helpers (which specifies "type": "module"), but that package.json file
does not have a "name" property, because it is not the root package.json
file representing the entire @babel/runtime package.
I considered making the "name" restriction configurable, but that would
have fragmented the caching of optimisticLookupPackageJson. Instead, I
made it return an array of all potentially relevant package.json objects,
which can be safely cached.
This means that the caller has to iterate over the array, but there is
only one call site for this function (in tools/isobuild/package-source.js)
right now, so that wasn't too much work.
Unfortunately, this conversion triggered an error due to one of the
shortcomings of the Babel implementation of TypeScript:
SyntaxError: /tools/tool-env/profile.ts: Namespace not marked type-only declare. Non-declarative namespaces are only supported experimentally in Babel. To enable and review caveats see: https://babeljs.io/docs/en/babel-plugin-transform-typescript

Example:
"meteor": {
"mainModule": ...,
"testModule": ...,
"nodeModules": {
"recompile": {
"very-modern-package": ["client", "server"],
"alternate-notation-for-client-and-server": true,
"somewhat-modern-package": "legacy",
"another-package": ["legacy", "server"]
}
}
}
The keys of the meteor.nodeModules.recompile configuration object are npm
package names, and the values specify for which bundles those packages
should be recompiled using the Meteor compiler plugins system, as if the
packages were part of the Meteor application.
For example, if an npm package uses const/let syntax or arrow functions,
that's fine for modern and server code, but you would probably want to
recompile the package when building the legacy bundle. To accomplish this,
specify "legacy" or ["legacy"] as the value of the package's property,
similar to somewhat-modern-package above. These strings and arrays of
strings have the same meaning as the second argument to
api.addFiles(files, where) in a package.js file.
This configuration serves pretty much the same purpose as symlinking an
application directory into node_modules, but without any symlinking:
https://forums.meteor.com/t/litelement-import-litelement-html/45042/8?u=benjamn
The meteor.nodeModules.recompile configuration currently applies to the
application node_modules directory only (not to Npm.depends dependencies
in Meteor packages). Recompiled packages must be direct dependencies of
the application.
After much thought, I believe this implementation (#10545) would have
caused severe compatibility problems when using packages published with
earlier versions of Meteor in a Meteor 1.8.2 app, or when publishing
packages with Meteor 1.8.2 for use with earlier Meteor versions.
Specifically, this implementation relied on writing the additional
.npm/package/node_modules resources found by _findSources into the
unibuild JSON file(s), and there just wasn't any good way to make sure the
new JSON format could be safely consumed by previous Meteor versions.
Even if we found a way to hide the new resources from older versions of
Meteor, perhaps by putting them in a new/different property of the
unibuild JSON file, packages published with older Meteor versions might
try to load an npm package with a "module" field without realizing the
code must be compiled, which would likely cause a syntax error in Meteor
1.8.2, since the "module" field always gets preference over the "main"
field of package.json (in Meteor 1.8.2).
When I implemented support for the "module" entry point in package.json
files for client code in #10541, I modified PackageSource#_findSources to
include files found in node_modules that need to be compiled, but my
implementation considered only "local" node_modules directories, like the
one in the application root directory, while neglecting the private
.npm/package/node_modules directories that many Meteor packages have.
This commit includes .npm/**/node_modules when _findSources is scanning a
Meteor package, which should solve issues like #10544, where a Meteor
package imports an npm package that was installed with Npm.depends, and
that npm package has a "module" field in its package.json file, pointing
to an ESM entry point module, but the ESM syntax was not appropriately
compiled, leading to parse errors like "Unexpected token export".
Before lazy compilation was introduced in Meteor 1.7 (#9983), including
the node_modules directories of Meteor packages would likely have been a
big problem for build performance, since there would be that many more
modules to compile. It's still worth making sure this change doesn't
regress build performance for other reasons, but I'm reasonably confident
lazy compilation will save us here, unless there are just too many npm
packages installed via Npm.depends that export ESM modules.
Supporting "module" in package.json for server code is not advisable
because Node.js will be adopting the "type":"module" convention instead,
and in the meantime we need to maintain consistency with Node's module
resolution rules, which only currently pay attention to "main":

Fixes#10393.
Bumping compiler.BUILT_BY and LINKER_CACHE_SALT because
PR #10414 changes the behavior of the build system in a subtle way that
does not automatically trigger recompilation.
New Meteor apps have the following meteor.testModule in their package.json
files by default
"meteor": {
"testModule": "tests/main.js"
}
When meteor.testModule is defined, it determines the test entry point when
running the `meteor test` command, ignoring legacy file naming conventions
like *.tests.js or *.app-tests.js.
The package-source.js code changed by this commit was incorrect because it
ignored those specially-named test files even when running tests, which
was a problem if the meteor.testModule tried to import them explicitly,
because they would not be properly compiled.
If you're using meteor.testModule, the distinction between `meteor test`
and `meteor test --full-app` matters a bit less, since the test entry
point will be the same for both modes, though you can still check
Meteor.isTest and Meteor.isAppTest at runtime to control test behavior.
According to traditional Meteor file loading rules, tests/ directories are
completely ignored: https://guide.meteor.com/structure.html#special-directories
However, if you specify a meteor.testModule in your package.json that
refers to a file inside a tests/ directory, Meteor should permit modules
to be loaded from tests/, as well as any modules that are imported by the
meteor.testModule entry point.
Fixes#9991.
This reverts commit c5302bb2ba.
Based on conversation with @KoenLav, it seems this optimization was more
of a breaking change than anticipated, and the workaround of creating a
symbolic link to induce compilation is not just annoying on Windows but
also does not satisfy the goal of being able to import from node_modules
(as before) rather than importing via the symbolic link.
We will need to revisit this pitfall in Meteor 1.7.1, but it's important
to unbreak it ASAP in Meteor 1.7.0.1 (since 1.7 is unfortunately final).

For apps that are accidentally compiling too many LESS or SCSS files, the
recommended workaround (for now) is to add the offending directories
and/or files to a .meteorignore file.
