ASP NET.5 versioning ES6 module in razor pages

Question

When importing scripts in razor files, you could version them in this simple way:

<script src="~/lib/myscript.js" asp-append-version="true"></script>

How can I do an equivalent thing inside the module script:

<script type="module">
    import * as mynamespace from '/lib/myscript.js';
    ...
</script>

Does exists something that returns the string appended by the system?

import * as mynamespace from '/lib/myscript.js?version='@HTML.GetAspAppendVersionValue();

I had this exact problem, see my answer here. Basically, you simulate asp-append-version by adding version numbers to your file names (e.g. MyScript.v1.js) then rename the file when you change it and let Visual Studio update all the file references for you.
