Hi Praveen,Sorry for bothering but I just got lots of questions about using ES modules and I'm not sure who to ask. I tried to read the history of Debian wiki pages about ES modules and found you.
Recently I've updated node-leven package to the latest upstream version and it becomes an ES module now.
To use ES modules, I wrote a simple "mjs" script file:
import leven from '/usr/share/nodejs/leven/index.js';
console.log(leven('test', 'test2')); // output: 1
The first question is why I cannot use "import leven from 'leven';"?
I got ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND if I don't use the full path.
But packages like assert works without full path.
Not sure if I got things wrong.
The second question is more complicated.
I tried to use leven from a CJS module.
It works if I use dynamic import with full path:
var leven;
async function test() {
leven = await import ('/usr/share/nodejs/leven/index.js');
leven = leven.default;
console.log(leven('test', 'test1')); // output 1
}
test();
However, it seems to me that with CJS, there's no top-level await.
So I can only wrapping things in an async function.
But this is a bit trouble. How can I simply convert require('leven')
used in node-commist if there's no top-level await?
I cannot wrap whole node-commist inside an async function because it
should work like a library.
Yours, Paul
