Error Unexpected token import in nodejs

0 votes

I don't understand what is wrong. Node v5.6.0 NPM v3.10.6

The code:

function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) {
    import express from 'express'
};

The error:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token import
    at exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:53:16)
    at Module._compile (module.js:387:25)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:422:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:357:32)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:314:12)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:447:10)
    at startup (node.js:140:18)
    at node.js:1001:3

Hello,

Unfortunately, Node.js doesn't support ES6's import yet.

To accomplish what you're trying to do (import the Express module), this code should suffice

var express = require("express");

Also, be sure you have Express installed by running

$ npm install express

hope this is helpful!!
