import order causes an ERR_INTERNAL_ASSERTION error about node

[RedYetiDev]

I put the comment so that the collaborators don't need to go through the code to find the assertion, it's just for reference.

@RedYetiDev Thank you for asking. The issue was happening due to how NodeJS and cosmiconfig managing/handling the case of imported/required modules. The solution was to use cosmisconfig to read the configuration file, rather than importing the configuration file directly.

The failed assertion is:

node/lib/internal/modules/esm/translators.js

Line 347 in af614c5

assert(module === CJSModule._cache[filename]);

@RedYetiDev What does it mean for me? is this a Node.js bug? why the order of import matters?

Hey @electriquo, is this no longer an issue?
