I am unable to share drizzle schema between two backend

[riteshreg]

I tried to import the schema from the @acme/db package, but I was unable to compile it. I have fixed some issues, but I am still unable to resolve this particular problem. the error is
TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown file extension ".ts"

my nestjs tsconfig.json
{
"extends": "@acme/tsconfig/base.json",
"compilerOptions": {
"incremental": false,
"moduleResolution": "node16",
"module": "Node16",
"target": "ES2021",
"emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"noEmit": false,
"outDir": "./dist",
"baseUrl": "./",
"paths": {
"@acme/": ["../../packages//dist"]
}
},
"exclude": ["node_modules", "dist", "build"]
}

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

"@acme/": ["../../packages//dist"] => this will build only js files and you trying to import ts from that or ?

yes I am trying to import ts file. I tried to convert the nestjs commonjs to module but it didn't work. I am not able to figure out the solution.

Here is my solution,
I am using nestjs as my second backend

1. In packages/db update the tscofig so that javascript file also emit in dist (my whole tsconfig.json)

{
"extends": "@acme/tsconfig/internal-package.json",
"include": ["src"],
"exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"],
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "esnext", // Use modern module system
"declaration": true,
"declarationMap": true,
"emitDeclarationOnly": false, // Ensure this is false to emit JavaScript
"noEmit": false,
"outDir": "./dist" // Specify output directory
}
}

2. In package.json export .js file also (my package.json exports)
   "exports": {
   ".": {
   "types": "./dist/index.d.ts",
   "default": "./dist/index.js"
   },
   "./client": {
   "types": "./dist/client.d.ts",
   "default": "./dist/client.js"
   },
   "./schema": {
   "types": "./dist/schema.d.ts",
   "default": "./dist/schema.js"
   }
   },

3. As I mention I am using nestjs as my second backend so I converted it to module type (here is my nestjs tsconfig)
   {
   "compilerOptions": {
   "esModuleInterop": true,
   "moduleResolution": "nodenext",
   "module": "NodeNext",
   "declaration": true,
   "removeComments": true,
   "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
   "experimentalDecorators": true,
   "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
   "target": "ES2021",
   "sourceMap": true,
   "outDir": "./dist",
   "baseUrl": "./",
   "incremental": true,
   "skipLibCheck": true,
   "strictNullChecks": false,
   "noImplicitAny": false,
   "strictBindCallApply": false,
   "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": false,
   "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": false
   }
   }
