Imports broken about strapi

This also breaks https://github.com/strapi-community/strapi-plugin-slugify
(Error: Could not load js config file /Users/.....//strapi-plugin-slugify/strapi-server.js: Cannot find module '@strapi/strapi/lib/core-api/controller/transform')

and i guess more repo's.

This isn't a bug, we never supported importing code this way and doing so was at author's own risk. IMO I would copy the code you require into your codebase where possible & notify library authors elsewhere :)

Hi 👋
Thanks for taking the time to look into it and for responding.
We appreciate it.

Are you very sure about your decision though?
Without exposing these methods it's impossible to create custom endpoints that support core strapi behaviour like pagination, and the response format and it's my understanding that strapi is aiming to be highly extensible and at least support more than CRUD only.

Importing and exporting these crucial functions should be straightforward for the strapi team to implement and would help a lot of developers.

Let me know what your thoughts are.

Kind regards,
John
