`0.33.3` Throws `TypeError: A string was expected`

Nothing in the stack trace provided here is from within sharp itself.

If you still require help you'll need to provide some sample code that allows someone else to reproduce or at least better understand how you're trying to use sharp.

Thanks for a quick response.

Yeah, I know, it's minimized code (sorry). Sadly I can't get full trace from our deployed instance.

All calls to sharp fail, this is an example of one such instance:

import sharp from 'sharp';

// inputImage = Buffer

const webpImage = await sharp(inputImage)
    .webp({
	quality: 100,
	alphaQuality: 100,
	lossless: true,
})
.toBuffer();

The exception happens right here (I've added some logs right before & after the code above to be sure)

Nothing fancy. As I mentioned, it works perfectly fine locally, and in Azure on version 0.33.0. I did a test deploy by only changing 0.33.0 to 0.33.3 and this error started happening again. Changing back fixes it.

Really not sure what's going on and I'm fine with staying on older version, but figured I could post it here just in case others encounter(ed) same issue.

polyfills.server.mjs

My best guess would be that logic in your bundling step is erroneously polyfilling (i.e. monkey-patching) something fundamental, perhaps Object or Buffer.

Please can you try 0.33.1 and 0.33.2 to help narrow this down.

I don't think the bundling should be a problem here as it works with older versions. It's an Angular 17 SSR app (just FYI). This code is executed strictly on server (Node 20 - LTS on Linux).

I did several new releases one by one:

0.30.0 -> Works
0.30.1 -> Works
0.30.2 -> Works
0.30.3 -> Fails
Downgrade to 0.30.2 -> Works again

The only changes between these releases are sharp versions in package.json.

My best guess remains that something is being polyfilled in an unexpected or broken way. Can you prevent Angular from generating polyfills for the server side code? If not, what objects and functions are being polyfilled by dist/abc/server/polyfills.server.mjs?

Looking at the changes to sharp between v0.33.2 and v0.33.3 there is 7bc74fe that introduces the use of structuredClone, which is the sort of thing that I might imagine could be pollyfilled in a non-standard way.

Getting the same error on my apollo server.

await sharp(tmpFilePath) .resize({ width: 1500, height: 1500, fit: 'inside' }) .jpeg({ quality: 90 }) .toFile(tmpFileResizedPath)

both variables are paths /srv/http/blabla.jpg etc

Please can you create a standalone repo with minimal dependencies that allows someone else to reproduce.

Yes i will try to do that! I'm not that experienced in repos. Do i do that on github or some pastebin variant?

[lovell]

Do i do that on github

Yes please, that would be ideal, I'd expect to see a package.json file with dependencies, a single test image and a single JS file that someone else can use to reproduce.

[lovell]

@Enngage @rnenjoy Are either of you able to create a minimal repo that allows someone else to reproduce?

Sorry for late reply. I was working on the minimal repo but didnt mange to get the error. Then i saw that i now used 0.33.4. And the problem seems to be gone? So no need to work any more on it? :)
