`3.13.0` (latest) fails to run with `MODULE_NOT_FOUND`

[MikeMcC399]

Current behavior

After updating from markdown-link-check@3.12.2 to markdown-link-check@3.13.0 (latest), markdown-link-check fails to run.

The failure occurs independently of the Node.js version (v18.20.4, v20.18.0, v22.11.0 & v23.1.0)

Expected behavior

markdown-link-check should run and not fail.

Steps to reproduce

Component	Version
Ubuntu	24.04.1 LTS
Node.js	22.11.0
markdown-link-check	3.13.0

mkdir markdown-link-check-test
cd markdown-link-check-test
npm init -y
npm install markdown-link-check@latest
touch test.md
npx markdown-link-check test.md

input.opts.reporters = program.opts().reporters ?? [require(path.resolve('reporters', 'default.js'))];

Perhaps @dudeofawesome could take a look?

I have a fix. Stand by. :)

50 minutes for a fix, what took you so long? 😆 💯

Docker image seems to "work". But every check writes a "junit.xml"

I just pushed a fix for that.

13.13.1 also fails for me, but with a slightly different stack trace

Working on a fix.

[MikeMcC399]

@tcort

It looks like the npm package markdown-link-check does not publish the directory reporters

It's not fixed in 3.13.2 either.

[MikeMcC399]

@tcort

3.13.3 also fails

Check out the documentation for package.json

https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v10/configuring-npm/package-json

I guess you would need to specify either directories or files to get the reporters directory published.
