node_modules/node-summary/lib/summary.js:1
(function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { import _ from 'lodash'

on node version v11.6.0

[James Brooks]

Can you try the version on master?

[Sid]

Sorry for the late reply. Will try it out 👍🏽

Running into a new issue.
Added "node-summary": "git+https://github.com/jbrooksuk/node-summary.git#master" to package.json
Seeing error /node_modules/node-summary/lib/summary.js:1 (function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { import { convertHTMLToText, getTitle } from './helpers/html'

[Niek van der Maas]

Same error as @sidster-io from the master branch. @jbrooksuk maybe you need to add "type": "module" to the package.json?

[Catsvilles]

Same error here, v14.1.0

Possibly! I'm not overly familiar with how this works to be honest. Are you able to test this?

I think the problem is that you are using ES syntax along with CommonJS. You could try going through the code and make it work with CommonJS syntax. What I mean is changing statements like import {convertHTMLToText, getTitle} from './helpers/html.js'; to
const {convertHTMLToText, getTitle} = require("./helpers/html.js");. You would also have to change export statements from export const getTitle = htmlBody = {<function code here>} to module.exports.getTitle = (htmlBody) => {<function code here>}

I created a pull request fixing this issue(#50). You can use that instead the main package by using the command (or just wait him fix the issue / or merge the PR):
npm install https://github.com/TroniPM/node-summary

@jbrooksuk Looks like the master version is not in npm and the issue continues. Can you please publish master version to npm ?
