NextJS workers - how so I make sure the worker file is output to the build folder and excluded from the server bundle

[nickythorne]

I'm using https://github.com/mstephen19/nanolith to manage worker threads in my nextjs application. This library relies on the workers being defined in a single deterministic file that can be loaded and ran independently.

In my case I have a workers.ts in /app/lib/workers.ts, but it's currently getting bundled as part of the server bundle.

How can I configure next or webpack to omit bundling this file, and instead ensure it is put as-is into the build folder in both dev and prod builds? I can then configure nanolith to use a specific file path for loading the worker file on disk in both scenarios.

Thanks!
