Trying to bundle the server into a runnable .js file

[saikiran2197]

Context :
I am attempting to compile and run the LibreChat server on my local machine by running a node app.js script.

I have tried a variety of different compile options such as webpack, roll up, PKG but they all seem to have issues due to the mono repo nature of this project.

Is anyone aware of how I might go about doing this?

Much appreciated

Hi Danny
Thanks for the reply.

I guess my initial question lacked a bit of context

Let's assume I want to push this project onto a network drive to allow multiple users to run the node server.

1. Is there a way to bundle this up that doesn't need to reference the node_modules dir?

I tried doing an npm install and running the API/server/index.js from the network drive directly but it doesn't take into account the .env file.

Appreciate the reply!
