How to use node modules (like MomentJS) in EJS views?

Question

To use MomentJS in views/custom.ejs, what is the correct way (if any)?

1. Server side

   routes/index etc we can easily use require(\'moment\');

Answer 1

As of Node v12.8.3, it seems that you can pass require directly to EJS templates, i.e. this works:

const ejs = require('ejs')
let renderedHTML = ejs.render(`<% const moment = require('moment') %>`, { require })
