Encountering not defined error when calling function

Question

I'm working on a API integration with the ES6 module system and jQuery. I want to use re-use my addToCart function, that is why I placed it into a separate file. But when calling it I get following error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Export 'addToCart' is not defined in module

Please edit the question to limit it to a specific problem with enough detail to identify an adequate answer. — Community

you should have the latest version of Node.js installed (or, at least 13.2.0+). Then do one of the following, as described in the documentation:

Option 1

In the nearest parent package.json file, add the top-level "type" field with a value of "module". This will ensure that all .js and .mjs files are interpreted as ES modules. You can interpret individual files as CommonJS by using the .cjs extension.

// package.json

{
  "type": "module"
}

Option 2

Explicitly name files with the .mjs extension. All other files, such as .js will be interpreted as CommonJS, which is the default if type is not defined in package.json.

then just change the file extension to .mjs

i resolved that it's exporting the var but not async function that's why I used first created the empty object at the top then add the method there and export that moduleExports.addToFavourite = addToFavourite; moduleExports.updateHeaderCounts = updateHeaderCounts; moduleExports.addToCart = addToCart;
