ES6 Modules

This base uses "type": "module" in the package.json. It's important to remember to use the .js extension when importing files via relative paths (even if they are TypeScript files).

If you export a function from a TypeScript file:

src/functions/math/mycustumfunc.ts

export function sum(a: number, b: number){
    return a + b;
}

Import it by adding the .js extension at the end:

src/functions/index.ts

import { sum } from "./math/mycustumfunc.js"

We can also use the await keyword at the top level of the code:

hello.ts

import { setTimeout } from "node:timers/promises"

console.log("Hello");
await setTimeout(4000);
console.log("World");

If for some reason you need dynamic imports, you can use import as a function in the code:

handler.ts

async function handle(path: string){
  const module = await import(path);
  // ...
}
