Cannot use import statement outside a module(nodeJs)

Question

I am not able to run the file server. JS. I’ve tried to add “type”: module In the package.Json and it didn’t work. The first code is server.js and the secondary is package.json. I also think I'm not able to use import and require? I'm not sure.

const express = require('express');
const app = express();
import { getUserList } from './user';

const userList =  getUserList();

app.get('/users', (req, res, next) => {
    return res.status(200).send({
        success: 'true',
        message: 'users',
        users: userList
    });
   
});

app.listen(8000, () => {
    console.log('Example app listening on port 8000!');
});
