Can't resolve `net` error with SiweMessage

[estarriolvetch]

Hi,

I'm using siwe with nextjs and ethers-v6. I got error message when I create SiweMessage

const message = new SiweMessage({....})

Below is the error message:

error - ./node_modules/ethers/node_modules/ws/lib/sender.js:5:0
Module not found: Can't resolve 'net'

Import trace for requested module:
./node_modules/ethers/node_modules/ws/index.js
./node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/providers/ws.js
./node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/providers/provider-websocket.js
./node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/providers/index.js
./node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/ethers.js
./node_modules/ethers/lib.commonjs/index.js
./node_modules/siwe/dist/utils.js
./node_modules/siwe/dist/siwe.js

According to https://flaviocopes.com/nextjs-fix-module-not-found/ , it seems this error is from Next.js is trying to run backend code in the frontend.

have you included node-polyfills?

node-polyfill-webpack-plugin solves the problem partially. Why can't you just add all the missing polyfills to the package?
