how to use require in main.js










0















I try to use axios in my main.js.
i tried import axios from 'axios'. ... I got error for import. I read here that I should use require instead of import.
after that I tried



 var axios=require('axios');


but I got the error ....require is not defined.



after that I read about browserify. I installed it



npm install -g browserify 


after that I used this code to bundle it



browserify main.js -o bundle.js


and I add this script to my index.html code.



<script src="bundle.js"></script>


but I got the same error



REQUIRE IS NOT DEFINED!!
I am actually confused. can somebody HELP ME!



appreciated

  • I did the same thing as you did and it's working fine for me. I tried it both with a global browserify install, as you did, and with a local one, as @Shireesha suggests. Browserify bundles create a require function at the very start of the script. Does your bundle.js starts with some sort of require definition? (code is obscure and without spaces so it is difficult to spot). I believe somehow your bundle.js is malformed. OR you're using require in another script that you're loading into the HTML page BEFORE the bundle.

  • You are not intended to change bundle files manually at all, in order for them to work. However, maybe it helps if you toss some console.log calls in the bundle.js file, to check wether the error comes after the bundle.js start or before. On top of that: are you loading more javaScript files into the HTML page?

    By default require() is not a valid function in client side Javascript and is primarily used in server side Node.js. I recommend you look into require.js as this does extend the client side to provide you with that function. Or else go with ES6 import.
