Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module

[arantebw]

What minimal example or steps are needed to reproduce the bug?

yarn lint

What minimal configuration is needed to reproduce the bug?

Using:

• yarn 1.22.19
• node 18.16.0

How did you run Stylelint?

    "lint": "yarn prettier --check && yarn eslint && yarn stylelint && yarn markdownlint",

Which Stylelint-related dependencies are you using?

    "stylelint": "^15.10.3",

What did you expect to happen?

Lint won't return a runtime error.

What actually happened?

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /Users/user1/Projects/project1/node_modules/string-width/index.js from /Users/user1/Projects/project1/node_modules/stylelint/lib/formatters/stringFormatter.js not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in /Users/user1/Projects/project1/node_modules/stylelint/lib/formatters/stringFormatter.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

Do you have a proposal to fix the bug?

Upgrade string-width to its latest version.

Currently used by stylelint:

Latest version available:

@arantebw Thanks for opening the issue using the template. I'm afraid that Stylelint v15 doesn't support ESM yet, so stylelint@15.10.3 needs to use older versions of string-width. See also the dependencies restriction below:

$ npm v stylelint@15.10.3 'dependencies.string-width'
^4.2.3

But we are moving to ESM (#5291) and will support ESM in the next major version (v16.0.0).
