1. Create a project with nuxt and nuxt/supabase.

pnpm create nuxt@latest .

pnpm dlx nuxi@latest module add supabase

2. View the error in dev tools

Note: pnpm build and pnpm preview work without problems

Same here.

Edit: After trying with npm install instead of pnpm install, it seems to solve this. The issue seems to be at this level.

I tried with npm and fixed the issue. But moving away from pnpm is not an option for me.

The latest @supabase/supabase-js has a dual CommonJS/ESM distribution and Vite seems to be failing the pre-bundling of Supabase pakages during dev (hence causing the browser to load the CommonJS version [index.js with exports] instead of the ESM version.)

To resolve the issue, I added the following in nuxt.config.js:

vite: {
    optimizeDeps: {
      include: [
        "@supabase/supabase-js",
        "@supabase/postgrest-js",
        "@supabase/auth-js",
        "@supabase/realtime-js",
        "@supabase/storage-js",
        "@supabase/functions-js",
      ],
    },
  },

Seems to work, thank you!

Does not work for me.

This here works for me to resolve the export issues (both spa and ssr:true) on Nuxt v4.2.2 (most current as of writing):

  vite: {
    optimizeDeps: {
      include: ['@supabase/postgrest-js', '@supabase/supabase-js']
    }
  },
  nitro: {
    externals: {
      inline: ['@supabase/supabase-js']
    }
  },

  supabase: {
    redirect: false,
    types: '../shared/types/database.types.ts',
  },

Also adding shamefullyHoist: true in pnpm-workspace.yaml solved it for me.
