Use Case

As a... webpack bundle user
I want... bundle code that uses native packages
So that... I can still run bundled code in Node.js

User Experience

• What is the desired/expected outcome for the user once this ticket is implemented?
• webpack doesn't fail to build the driver with native extensions

Dependencies

• MONGOSH-1947

Risks/Unknowns

• What could go wrong while implementing this change? (e.g., performance, inadvertent behavioral changes in adjacent functionality, existing tech debt, etc)
• Is there an opportunity for better cross-driver alignment or testing in this area?
  • No
• Is there an opportunity to improve existing documentation on this subject?
  • Probably, but more likely it would be better captured by a test.

Acceptance Criteria

Implementation Requirements

• Make sure the use of require for the native build is inside a try-catch block.
  • zstd, mongodb-client-encryption, kerberos

Testing Requirements

• Try bundling the native packages or the driver or both to try and catch errors (we have done this in BSON)

Documentation Requirements

• None

Follow Up Requirements

• We may defer adding testing in our projects as long as we unblock the internal projects that can verify webpack is fixed by the change for this ticket.
