using PKG with featherjs app - feathersjs

Question

Has anyone ever tried using pkg with featherjs before? I'm having trouble getting it to work.
I get the following error when running my executable:
WARNING: No configurations found in configuration directory:/../project/config
WARNING: To disable this warning set SUPPRESS_NO_CONFIG_WARNING in the environment.
pkg/prelude/bootstrap.js:1172
throw error;
^
TypeError: root path required
at Function.serveStatic [as static] (/snapshot/../project/node_modules/serve-static/index.js:40:11)
Not sure where to go from here if anyone has any guidance.

The error is coming from node-config used by #feathersjs/configuration which trying to load config/default.json from the folder of the running application, not the the bundled package. You can either try building with the NODE_CONFIG environment variable set to the content of config/defualt.json or remove app.configure(configuration()) and app.set the configuration options your application needs, for example by requiring config/default.json (which should also work in theh packaged environment):
const config = require('../config/default.json');
Object.keys(config).forEach(key => {
app.set(key, config[key]);
});
