help: Error: [BABEL] unknown: Preset /* your preset */ requires a filename to be set when babel is called directly,

See original GitHub issue

📚 What are you trying to do? Please describe. I have a Nuxt 2.13.3 app and I would like to use nuxt/composition-api, but when i’m trying to build the app, it failed on the following error:

ERROR in ./.nuxt/client.js
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/babel-loader/lib/index.js):
Error: [BABEL] unknown: Preset /* your preset */ requires a filename to be set when babel is called directly,

babel.transform(code, { filename: ‘file.ts’, presets: [/* your preset */] });

See https://babeljs.io/docs/en/options#filename for more information. (While processing: "/Users/jankaderabek/xxx/yyy/apps/admin/node_modules/nuxt-composition-api/lib/babel.js")

Had the same issue, in my case it was a babel.config.js I created for Jest + TypeScript like documented here

I resolved it by rewriting babel.config.js, see Making your Babel config jest-aware of the Jest docs

Hope this helps in case anyone else stumbles over this.
