Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /home/sky/Documents/hourlypets/node_modules/tsl-mastodon-api/lib/index.js from /home/sky/Documents/hourlypets/src/mastodon.ts not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in /home/sky/Documents/hourlypets/src/mastodon.ts to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

I am importing the lib like this
import * as Mastodon from 'tsl-mastodon-api';
This is usually a side effect of the uneven adoption of ESM vs CommonJS and mixing of the two. It's a bit annoying, but, usually fairly easy to work around. But, a lot of it depends on how your project is configured - both the package.json and tsconfig.
Do you have the code available somewhere? I'm mostly interested in the
package.json(specifically thetypeproperty) andtsconfigif you have one (and this is Typescript). Also, is this a Typescript project or a regular Javascript project?Sorry, there's several variables here that affect the proper solution.
EDIT : One more question. If this is a Typescript project, how are you executing it? Transpile then run with node? ts-node? ts-node-esm?
I am using ts-node
