No matching export in "browser-external:events" for import "EventEmitter"

Question

I have imported InjectedConnector from @web3-react/injected-connector in my reactJS application for connecting it to meta mask wallet but on starting the vite server I is getting this error

✘ [ERROR] No matching export in "browser-external:events" for import "EventEmitter"

../../node_modules/@web3-react/abstract-connector/dist/abstract-connector.esm.js:1:9:
  1 │ import { EventEmitter } from 'events';

Any idea what is going wrong here??

This is the complete error message displayed

error when starting dev server:
Error: Build failed with 1 error:

Answer 1

yarn add events solved my issue.

@web3-react/abstract-connector didn't add events as a dependency, and vite try to resolve dep from nodejs native maybe ?
