As for Vite is a problem that should be fixed by ollama ( the library) :https://vitejs.dev/guide/troubleshooting.html#module-externalized-for-browser-compatibility

Just if not clear: npm run dev works, but when i tried npm run build....i got the error above.

Hope this could be fixed soon.

Thanks

This seems like an issue that should be created on https://github.com/ollama/ollama-js instead.

ollama/ollama-js is the repository for the npm package. This repository ollama/ollama, is for the actual Ollama service you install on your computer or server, not the npm package. It's for the service the npm package interacts with.

And you don't have to post it again there, the Ollama team can transfer the issue over manually. 👍

import fs, { promises, createReadStream } from 'fs';

you can't use 'fs/promises' inside browser.

maybe help this: https://github.com/vitejs/vite/discussions/8799#discussioncomment-8191565
in my case I rewrite code using api.

i have an alternative solution but it only works with nextjs.

put the api call in a file use the "use server" directive on top. this way, the issue completely goes away for reasons stated above (code run in a node node env rather than on browser)
