How do I import something with rollup

Question

I'm successfully using rollup with riot-mixin-pack by using this line at the top of my code:

import { domEvent, parentScope } from 'riot-mixin-pack'

When rolled up the domEvent and parentScope objects are included at the top of my file.

I would like to import highlight.js with one or two supported languages input my rolled up file but I can't seem to figure out the import line I would need.

Any way to do this?

Answer 1

Out of the box, Rollup only knows how to import ES modules (ie modules that have import and export statements of their own). Highlight is a CommonJS module rather than an ES module, so you'll need to use a plugin in order to import it – specifically, rollup-plugin-commonjs alongside rollup-plugin-node-resolve .
