Svelte 5: TypeError [Error]: entry.default.render is not a function

I am trying to upgrade a svelte app from version 3 to version 5. And I am running into this issue.

node:internal/event_target:1094
  process.nextTick(() => { throw err; });
                           ^

Node.js v20.17.0

The faulty code block is below:

const getMetadata = (entryType, filepath, entry) => {
    return {
        ...
        content: entry.default.render().html, // <---
        ...
    }

entry is something like Object.entries(import.meta.glob('<regex>', { eager: true})).
