⚠️ Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

[zorro-ftw]

I started using public-ip package in my Next.js frontend project and saw the following warning appearing. As indicated in the warning, the dependency chain brought me to this package.

⚠ ./node_modules/keyv/src/index.js
Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

Import trace for requested module:
./node_modules/keyv/src/index.js
./node_modules/cacheable-request/dist/index.js
./node_modules/got/dist/source/core/index.js
./node_modules/got/dist/source/index.js
./node_modules/public-ip/index.js

The problem seems to occur because of the following line in keyv / packages / keyv / src / index.ts :

return new (require(adapters[adapter]))(options);

At this moment, I don't have any solution proposals. However, I will try and test possible solutions further and in the meantime this issue might clear some other confused people like me.

I just realized a former issue that's been replied by the owner (#976) stating that this will be fixed in upcoming v5. Closing this issue because of that.

I suggest anyone ending up here to take a look at this comment.
