[bug]: Getting appId is missing error while running code on production mode

[sureshkumarsendrayan]

Description

I'm using algolia search in my Angular 18 application. Normally it works without any issue in the development mode.
But if I build the application in the production mode with optimization using angular.json file and tries to serve it, then I'm getting the below error.

The same application on the production mode is working when I built it without optimization. Below is the piece of production build configuration where optimization is set to false for testing in the angular.json file.

"configurations": { "production": { "optimization": false, "budgets": [ { "type": "initial", "maximumWarning": "2mb", "maximumError": "5mb" }, { "type": "anyComponentStyle", "maximumWarning": "20kb", "maximumError": "25kb" } ], "fileReplacements": [ { "replace": "src/environments/environment.ts", "with": "src/environments/environment.prod.ts" } ], "outputHashing": "all" },

Below is my package.json file.

Hey, thanks for opening the issue, could you share a code snippet of your algoliasearch instantiation?

Hey, thanks for opening the issue, could you share a code snippet of your algoliasearch instantiation?

Here is the code.

import { algoliasearch, SearchResponse, SearchResponses } from 'algoliasearch';
import { environment } from 'src/environments/environment';

@Injectable({
	providedIn: 'root'
})
export class AlgoliaService {
	private readonly searchClient = algoliasearch(
		environment.algolia.appId,
		environment.algolia.apiKey
	);

	search = <T>(
		query: string,
		filters: string
	): Observable<SearchResponse<T>> => {
		return from(
			this.searchClient.searchSingleIndex({
				indexName: environment.algolia.relevanceIndex,
				searchParams: {
					query,
					analytics: true,
					filters,
					facets: ['*'],
					hitsPerPage: environment.algolia.hitsPerPage
				}
			})
		) as Observable<SearchResponse<unknown>> as Observable<SearchResponse<T>>;
	};
}

In the environment.prod.js, I have the correct appId and appKey property values.

Could you try bumping to the latest 5.9.1 version and let me know if the error still occurs?

Could you try bumping to the latest 5.9.1 version and let me know if the error still occurs?

I'm getting below error while running ng serve when I try to use algoliasearch 5.9.1 version.

You can find the minimal reproducible repo here for the above issue. I removed appId and apiKey in the code. You can use other keys.
