Could not load the "sharp" module using the linux-arm64 runtime

Trying to use a library that uses sharp inside a convex action and get this error. Using bun pkg manager. Any thoughts from anyone?

I’ve tried it with npm before and it works but i believe u have to use the node runtime and u have to externalise the module node runtime https://docs.convex.dev/functions/runtimes externalise https://docs.convex.dev/functions/bundling#external-packages

Runtimes | Convex Developer Hub

Convex functions can run in two runtimes:

Bundling is the process of gathering, optimizing and transpiling the JS/TS

Yeah try this with the node runtime and "externalizing" the package with a convex.config like

{
  "node": {
    "externalPackages": ["aws-sdk", "sharp"]
  }
}

{
  "node": {
    "externalPackages": ["aws-sdk", "sharp"]
  }
}

if that doesn't work would be curious to hear, we know it works with npm and pnpm but it's possible there's more work to do for bun.
