How to include JS from node_modules in Vite in production?

I have a svelte project that uses Vite for its build tooling. I want to import a js file from the sakura-js package and call it in my index.html file. It works locally when I use the script tag like this:

<script src="/node_modules/sakura-js/dist/sakura.min.js"></script>

But in prod, it gives a 404 error trying the script. How do I import the script so it works in prod?
