Worker_Threads: Unable to find dialect

[Hirobreak]

Hello, I'm running a worker_thread that needs to read a copy of my encrypted database.

Unfortunately when I try to connect to my database I get the following error: UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Unable to find dialect at @journeyapps/sqlcipher.

This is my database setup

sequelize = new Sequelize(null, null, key, {
    dialect: 'sqlite',
    dialectModulePath: '@journeyapps/sqlcipher',
    storage: path,
    logging: false,
    transactionType: 'IMMEDIATE'
  });

I have been reading about this issue and it might be related to Enabling Context-Awareness, here's some info about it Context-Awareness and Example of Context-Awareness Fix

I'm running Electron 8 which runs Node 12.13.0 and I'm using Sequelize 5.21.2 and @journeyapps/sqlcipher 4.0.0
I'm able to import any other module I use on the rest of my electron app but this one, any help would be much appreciated

The current version does not support running with worker_thread.

The upstream node-sqlcipher3 project had some recent changes that could fix the issue. The changes will be included here soon.

This now does seem to work with worker_thread on Node 14 / N-API 6. Earlier versions may appear to work, but are likely to run into crashes.

Electron 10 is based on Node v12.16.3, so worker_threads will not work yet.

Also note that there are more unresolved upstream issues related to worker_threads:

TryGhost/node-sqlite3#1381

Best is to track the issues there, and update the project here if there are any fixes.
