Hi @parzival. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The warning "It seems that security is not a Nuxt module." suggests that Nuxt is not recognizing nuxt-security as a valid module. However, according to the knowledge sources, nuxt-security is listed as a runtime module in several Nuxt 4 projects and is being used with Nuxt 4.1.3 without being flagged as fundamentally incompatible. For example, in one environment report, nuxt-security@2.4.0 is included as a runtime module with Nuxt 4.1.3 on Linux, and the main issue reported was related to native bindings, not module recognition itself Can't install Nuxt 4.1.3 on linux.
If you are seeing this warning, it could be due to one of the following:
- The module may not be installed correctly (check your node_modules and package.json).
- There could be a typo in your nuxt.config file (ensure you are using the correct module name: 'nuxt-security').
- There may be a temporary incompatibility or detection issue in the latest Nuxt 4 release.
Suggestions:
1. Double-check your installation:
2. Ensure your nuxt.config file includes the module correctly:
3. If the warning persists but the module works as expected, it may be a false positive. If you encounter actual functionality issues, consider checking for updates to both Nuxt and nuxt-security, or look for related issues on their GitHub repositories.
There is no explicit information in the knowledge sources about this specific warning message, so if the module functions correctly despite the warning, you can proceed with caution. If you experience problems, you may want to open an issue on the nuxt-security repository or check for recent discussions about Nuxt 4 compatibility.
If you need to ensure maximum compatibility, you might also want to check the latest documentation or GitHub issues for both Nuxt and nuxt-security for any breaking changes or migration notes.
