Node 26: DEP0205 deprecation warning from module.register during dev startup

[Archetipo95]

Hi team,

I’m seeing a Node 26 deprecation warning during dev startup.

Warning

(node:81700) [DEP0205] DeprecationWarning: module.register() is deprecated. Use module.registerHooks() instead.
(Use node --trace-deprecation ... to show where the warning was created)

Environment

• Node: 26.0.0
• vp: 0.1.11
• vite-plus: 0.1.21

Reproduction

1. Use Node 26
2. Run vp run dev
3. Check startup logs

Suspected source

@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core module runner fallback in createImportMetaResolver appears to still call module.register(...).

Expected behavior

No DEP0205 warning on Node 26 startup (prefer module.registerHooks() path).

Notes

• This is non-blocking right now.
• Dev server still starts normally.

I switched over to Node 26 and fired up the dev server, but I didn't run into the DEP0205 warning at all.

vp env use 26.0.0
vp run dev

I also went ahead and checked the code for each version directly.

# 0.1.11 (in local cache)
grep -n "registerHooks\|module\.register\b" \
  ~/.vite-plus/0.1.11/node_modules/.pnpm/@voidzero-dev+vite-plus-core@0.1.11/node_modules/@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core/dist/vite/node/module-runner.js


# 0.1.21 (fetched from npm and extracted)
npm pack @voidzero-dev+vite-plus-core@0.1.21 --pack-destination /tmp/vp-compare/
tar -xzf /tmp/vp-compare/voidzero-dev-vite-plus-core-0.1.21.tgz -C /tmp/vp-compare/
grep -n "registerHooks\|module\.register\b" \
  /tmp/vp-compare/package/dist/vite/node/chunks/node.js


# 0.1.22 (already installed)
grep -n "registerHooks\|module\.register\b" \
  node_modules/.pnpm/@voidzero-dev+vite-plus-core@0.1.22_typescript@6.0.3/node_modules/@voidzero-dev/vite-plus-core/dist/vite/node/chunks/node.js

Looking at the code, it's designed to prioritize registerHooks whenever it's available across all versions.

if (module.registerHooks) {       // This runs first on Node 22.5 and later
    module.registerHooks(...)
    return
}
if (!module.register) return
module.register(...)              // The warning happens on this path

Since Node 26.0.0 has module.registerHooks, the older module.register path shouldn't be executed at all.

I couldn't reproduce this on my end, so would you mind updating to the latest version to see if that fixes it? If you're still seeing the issue, please put together a minimal reproduction repo so I can take a closer look and find out what's going on.
