How i can import an entire js file with webpack?-CodePudding

I want to import my file functions.js in my file index.js and use variables and functions are in functions.js.

For ex: I have an variable x in my file functions.js. I import functions.js like "import './functions.js';" in my index.js. The path is correct for sure(they are in the same directory). But when i try to use x, i have this next error -> "index.js:01 Uncaught ReferenceError: x is not defined"

functions.js export var x = 0;

index.js

import './functions.js';
console.log(x);

Thanks ! :)

CodePudding user response：

The point of modules is to get away from this business of sharing everything in a single scope (the global scope, by default in non-module scripts). If you want to do that, don't use modules, use non-module scripts.

Modules are defined in terms of

What they provide (export)
What they expect (import)

In general, you're best off making those relationships explicit:

import { x } from "./fonctions.js";
// ...use `x`...

That assumes x is a named export:

export const x = /*...*/;
// or
export function x() {
    // ...
};
// etc.

The closest thing to an "import everything from X" construct in JavaScript modules is a module namespace object import, which looks like this:

import * as fonctions from "./fonctions.js";

You'd then use fonctions.x to refer to x. But, x still has to be exported from fonctions.js (as above). Anything declared in a module that isn't explicitly exported is private to that module, and so it doesn't show up on the module namespace object.
