Just TS-transpile the worker file like other files into `worker.js`, and use it like `new Worker("worker.js")`. * It failed because `tsc` reserves `importScripts()` and also appends `export {};` to the end of the file to specify it as a module (`https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/41513`), * however, `importScripts()` is only supported by classic WebWorkers, and `export {};` is not supported by classic WebWorkers. * 2. Use ESM import instead of `importScripts()`, which is (experimentally?) supported by Pyodide since v0.20.0 (https://pyodide.org/en/stable/project/changelog.html#javascript-package), * using `import { loadPyodide } from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/pyodide/v0.23.2/full/pyodide.js";` in the worker file, instead of `importScripts(...)`. * It was successful in the dev mode, but failed in the prod mode, which has this problem: https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide/issues/2217#issuecomment-1328344562. */ export default defineConfig({ build: { outDir: "dist", rollupOptions: { input: path.join(__dirname, "src/webworker/index.ts"), // Ref: https://github.com/rollup/rollup/issues/2616#issuecomment-1431551704 output: { entryFileNames: "webworker.js" } } } });
