Cannot use the package

[Anders Heintz]

When I install the package using yarn add r7insight_node and includes import Logger from "r7insight_node" I get the following error:

<project-dir>/node_modules/codependency/index.js:206
        var lastDir = baseModule.filename;
                                 ^

hey @aheintz!

• what node/yarn version are you using?
• can you try import * as Logger from 'r7insight_node';?

The codependency package that we pull in does not seem to work if you are using modules (i.e. "type": "module" in package.json). For now the simple answer would appear to be to not use modules (if you want to use import syntax, you'll need to transpile). I'll create a ticket for this in our internal bug tracker.

[David Valentine]

Yeah it looks like codependency attempts to enforce CommonJS syntax. The features it provides are provided out of the box by NPM (and yarn) these days, so I've replaced it with those in my PR, and verified that both ES6 import syntax and CommonJS import syntax will work going forward

Hi @aheintz, this should now be fixed in version 3.2.1. Can you confirm?
