Jest setup for esm modules. Error "Cannot find module" / The 'import.meta' meta-property is only allowed when the '--module' option

[Volna13]

I am switching from cjs to esm. I've fixed all the issues except jest running issues. He just refuses to work.

Here is datails.

/jest.config.js

export default {
  preset: 'ts-jest',
  testEnvironment: 'node',
  transform: {},
  setupFilesAfterEnv: ['./src/tests/jest.setup.ts'],
};

/src/tests/jest.setup.ts

import { stopCronJobs } from '../jobs/index.js';
import { logger } from '../utils/logger.js';
import connection from '../databases/connection.js';

beforeAll(async () => {
  logger.info('Opening a connection with a PostgreSql');
  await connection.create();
  logger.info('PostgreSql connection opened');
});

afterAll(async () => {
  await connection.close();
  stopCronJobs();
  logger.info('PostgreSql connection closed');
});

Error after run npm run test

 Cannot find module '../jobs/index.js' from 'src/tests/jest.setup.ts'

    > 1 | import { stopCronJobs } from '../jobs/index.js';
        | ^
      2 | import { logger } from '../utils/logger.js';
      3 | import connection from '../databases/connection.js';
      4 |

Then i have changed my jest.config.js

import preset from 'ts-jest/presets/index.js';

/** @type {import('ts-jest').JestConfigWithTsJest} */
export default {
  ...preset.defaultsESM,
  resolver: 'ts-jest-resolver',
  setupFilesAfterEnv: ['./src/tests/jest.setup.ts'],
  transform: {
    '^.+\\.tsx?$': [
      'ts-jest',
      {
        tsconfig: 'tsconfig.json',
        useESM: true,
      },
    ],
  },
};

And now i receive error
src/utils/logger.ts:8:41 - error TS1343: The 'import.meta' meta-property is only allowed when the '--module' option is 'es2020', 'es2022', 'esnext', 'system', 'node16', or 'nodenext'.

8 const __dirname = dirname(fileURLToPath(import.meta.url));

you resolve this problem? When developing, I encountered exactly the same problem
