Clearscript: V8 enable modules

[fasihrana]

Is there a way to enable "import <module>.js;" statements in a V8 Runtime?

I couldn't find any examples and makes me think I'd have to parse the script file myself first to enable this.

As on StackOverflow.

Hi @fasihrana,

ClearScript currently doesn't support ES6 modules. We're evaluating adding support for both ES6 and Node.js-style modules in an upcoming release.

Thanks!

ClearScript 5.6 includes basic support for modules.

Can you please show an example how to enable import/export in ClearScript? We try to use modules but allways return one error "SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier" in code

import ScriptClass1 from "ScriptClass1.js";

Hi @Ariohor,

Take a look at the test method here.

Good luck!

I have a follow up question on this,
What's the best way to import modules installed using NPM in visual studio? I have a package.json file that installs the dependencies in a node_modules folder.

Hi @karimi,

You can use DocumentSettings.SearchPath to specify your module locations.

Please let us know if you need additional information.

Good luck!

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. I also had to have a build event that copies the node_modules to my build folder.
