Can’t import the named export XXXX from non EcmaScript module (only default export is available)

Can’t import the named export XXXX from non EcmaScript module (only default export is available)


30

I have a client-server setup, in which the client(create-react-app) runs on localhost:3000 and the server is an express server which is built on node and I’m attempting to build graphql schema-resolvers setup.

I’m able to import .graphql files on the server, however, on the client side, I’m using this setup by graphql-tools.

When I’m attempting to build the schema-resolvers on the frontend, I’m importing

import { GraphQLFileLoader } from '@graphql-tools/graphql-file-loader';
import { addResolversToSchema } from '@graphql-tools/schema';
import { loadSchema } from '@graphql-tools/load';

…which causes this error:

./node_modules/@graphql-tools/graphql-file-loader/index.mjs
Can’t import the named export ‘AggregateError’ from non EcmaScript module (only default export is available)

After researching, I’ve found out that this is an issue related with webpack.

Is there any resolution to this issue?

Reset to default

Make sure you have "react-scripts": "^5.0.1" on your package.json dependencies, then use command npm install. For some reason my react-scripts version was 3.x.x and that was causing the problem. I used cra too.

  • It resolves but create further issues with importing svg files, eslint plugin issues

  • doing this makes most of other package that previously installed (and listed in package.json) from 3.x.x become unsupported.

the solution is to make sure that you have a webpack.config.js file in the root of your project directory that looks something like this:

const config = {
  mode: 'production', // "production" | "development" | "none"
  resolve: {
    extensions: ['*', '.mjs', '.js', '.json']
  },
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /.mjs$/,
        include: /node_modules/,
        type: 'javascript/auto'
      }
    ]
  }
}

module.exports = config

also you can take a look https://github.com/vanruesc/postprocessing

    "Looks something like this" Like what? What options in this code block are relevant? What do they do? What does the error message even mean?

    I am sorry but this answer, contrary to its score, is the school example of the NAA.

    I think it's saying to account for the .mjs? Ryan Kennedy's answer seems to think so.

To clarify Eduard’s answer:

  1. Add .mjs to the extensions array in your webpack.config.js. This ensures that the relevant files can be located at build time.
  2. Add { test: /.mjs$/, include: /node_modules/, type: 'javascript/auto' } to your rules array in webpack.config.js. This causes Webpack to recognize .mjs files as modules, and changes the way they are handled for imports.

Here is a another example for the glahql library

module.exports = {
    chainWebpack: config => {
        // ...other chains
        config.module // fixes https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/issues/1272
            .rule('mjs$')
            .test(/.mjs$/)
            .include
                .add(/node_modules/)
                .end()
            .type('javascript/auto');
    },
    configureWebpack: {
        resolve: {
            // .mjs needed for https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js/issues/1272
            extensions: ['*', '.mjs', '.js', '.vue', '.json']
        }
    }
}

Just check once extension of the file like .js, .jsx.
is it matching with other files.

In my case I missed to add .js extension when I created it

import React from "react";
const useMemo = React.useMemo;
const useState = React.useState;
const useCallback = React.useCallback;

I changed code like above and it worked for me.

It is worth noting that the webpack.config.js file fix won’t work if you are using create-react-app unless you eject, which isn’t great.

I manually renamed index.mjs to index.mjs_old in every @graphql-tools subfolders (merge, mock, and schema) and it worked.

  • I can see that you're getting the error mainly because of @graphql-tools/graphql-file-loader try renaming index.mjs in ./node_modules/@graphql-tools/graphql-file-loader/ to index.mjs_old. PS. Just make sure that there is another file at the same location called index.js
