Can I use alias with NodeJS require function?

Question

I have an ES6 module that exports two constants:

export const foo = \"foo\";
export const bar = \"bar\";

I can do the following in another

Yes, a simple destructure would adhere to your request.

Instead of:

var events = require('events');
var emitter = new events.EventEmitter();

You can write:

const emitter = {EventEmitter} = require('events');

emitter() will alias the method EventEmitter()

Just remember to instantiate your named function: var e = new emitter();
