How can I use an ES6 import in Node.js? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Solution

https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-register

// This is to allow ES6 export syntax
// to be properly read and processed by node.js application
require('babel-register')({
  presets: [
    'env',
  ],
});

// After that, any line you add below that has typical ES6 export syntax
// will work just fine

const utils = require('../../utils.js');
const availableMixins = require('../../../src/lib/mixins/index.js');

Below is definition of file *mixins/index.js

export { default as FormValidationMixin } from './form-validation'; // eslint-disable-line import/prefer-default-export

That worked just fine inside my Node.js CLI application.
