Cannot read property 'defineProperty' of undefined

I've set up the mesh locally following the basic setup guide. I started facing issues when I wanted to run the server in production.

Source used: https://api.apis.guru/v2/specs/stripe.com/2020-08-27/openapi.json
Also tried: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stripe/openapi/master/openapi/spec3.json

The mesh dev works fine.

After I run mesh build the build completes successfully. Then, I attempt to serve the production server by running mesh start. The server fails to start with an error: Cannot read property 'defineProperty' of undefined.

The error occurs in the generated index.js on line 2 where we can find Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });

After further investigation of the generated file, I noted that the Stripes OAS generated this part of the code as well:

var Object;
(function (Object) {
    Object["CARD"] = "card";
})(Object = exports.Object || (exports.Object = {}));

Apparently, the generated file redeclares the Object and also exports plenty of other Objects in the form: Object1, Object2, Object3... .

I've tested a few other OAS and they successfully generate the index.js file without Object.

My current workaround is removing the 2nd line of the generated code and the server seems to work fine.

Is there any way to generate the file using these sources and not having to remove the Object.defineProperty line?

I think Stripe has an enum type called Object so this conflicts with the JavaScript's Object. So as a workaround, you can use rename transform to rename that type to StripeObject;
