@prismicio/client export error deploying to Netlify

Developing with Prismic
1

I have created a static Astro site that pulls from Prismic, and I have followed the Astro docs to deploy as a static site to Netlify. However, when I try to deploy to Netlify, I get the following error message, and the build fails:

3:04:15 PM:  generating static routes

Hello @steve1, I'm not sure what exactly is breaking there, but from other posts online I can see that this can be solved by updating the setup of some of your exports. Take this example:

3:04:15 PM: error The requested module '@prismicio/client' does not provide an export named 'default'

Yes, you are correct. I had to fix my import of @prismicio/client from

import Prismic from '@prismicio/client'

to

import * as prismic from '@prismicio/client
