chalk - Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module
Chalk 5 has changed to ESM. They provide a link to better understand what that means: Pure ESM.
From chalk README:
IMPORTANT: Chalk 5 is ESM. If you want to use Chalk with TypeScript or a build tool, you will probably want to use Chalk 4 for now.
As of this reply, the last version of chalk 4 is 4.1.2
.
That is something to do with the version you are using which is I think 5.0.0
npm uninstall chalk
then
npm i [email protected]
now you can run your code
const chalk = require('chalk');
console.log(chalk.blue('Hello world!'));
//First Change in you Package.json
"main": "app.js",
"type": "module",//use this line
//Second change in App.js
import os from 'os' // const os = require("os")
import chalk from 'chalk';//const chalk = require("chalk")
Step-1 npm uninstall chalk (delete all chalk files)
Step-2 npm install [email protected]
const chalk = require("chalk");
console.log(chalkl.green("Hello"));
Done🙌🏻
