I have a code which I'm doing on replit, and I'm pretty new to node.js so I really do need assistance with this. I have a code which is this:
const Discord = require("discord.js")
const fetch = require("node-fetch")
const client = new Discord.Client()
const mySecret = process.env['TOKEN']
function getQuote() {
return fetch('https://zenquotes.io/api/random')
.then(res => {
return res.json
})
.then(data => {
return data[0]["q"] + " —" + data [0]["a"]
})
}
client.on("ready", () => {
console.log('Logged in as ${client.user.tag}' )
})
client.on("message", msg => {
if (msg.author.bot) return
if (msg.content === "$inspire") {
getQuote().then(quote => msg.channel.send(quote))
}
})
client.login(process.env.TOKEN)
However, I'm receiving the error:
npx node .
/home/runner/1Starty/index.js:2
const fetch = require("node-fetch")
^
Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /home/runner/1Starty/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js from /home/runner/1Starty/index.js not supported.
Instead change the require of /home/runner/1Starty/node_modules/node-fetch/src/index.js in /home/runner/1Starty/index.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.
at Object.<anonymous> (/home/runner/1Starty/index.js:2:15) {
code: 'ERR_REQUIRE_ESM'
}
May someone help me on why this is the case?
