Switching to Rollup 2 Error: default' is not exported

Question

I'm switching from Rollup 1.27 to 2.48.

I had this dependency communicated in rollup.config.js

alias({
    Paths: {
        'uikit-util': './node_modules/uikit/src/js/util',
    },
    Extensions: ['js', 'json']
}),

so Rollup knows what to do when this occurs

import UIkit from 'uikit';
import { $, on, ajax, hasClass, removeClass, addClass } from 'uikit-util';

At the moment i get this error message:

[!] Error: 'default' is not exported by node_modules\uikit\dist\js\uikit.js, imported by src\js\components\compo_a.js
https://rollupjs.org/guide/en/#error-name-is-not-exported-by-module
src\js\components\savedsearches.js (1:7)
1: import UIkit from 'uikit';

I tried using resolve and namedExports in the rollup config, but looks like that's not working.

The solution for this default export problem is to update commonjs option to make it as below

import commonjs from '@rollup/plugin-commonjs';
// rollup.config.js
export default {
  input: 'src/app.ts',
  output: [
    {
...
    commonjs({
      include: /node_modules/,
      requireReturnsDefault: 'auto', // <---- this solves default issue
    }),

documentation link: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rollup/plugin-commonjs search for requireReturnsDefault
