Const {assign} = require('lodash'); Syntax error unexpected {

Hi guys,

I am trying to use npm package ‘mollie-es6’ in Meteor but I am getting this error:

Error 1:

WebstormProjects/untitled6/.meteor/local/build/programs/server/packages/modules.js:987
const {assign} = require('lodash');
      ^

Can anybody explain why this is errors are showing up in Meteor?

Using it directly in NodeJS it’s working perfectly.

Is mollie-es6 an es6 transpiler ??? Is so it may conflicts with meteor’d build in transpiler.

No, it’s a payment method api

Is not valid Meteor 1.4 code anyway. (Seems to me, at least …)

It’s an NPM package https://www.npmjs.com/package/mollie-es6.
I’m using this method:

    const amount = 10.00;
    const description = 'My first API payment';
    const redirectUrl = 'http://example.org/order/12345';
    try {
        const payment = yield mollie.payments.create(
            amount,
            description,
            redirectUrl
        );
        res.redirect(payment.getPaymentUrl());
    } catch (e) {
        // Handle error
    }

Add npm to the meteor first with

meteor npm install mollie-es6

Then you have to import it

import {mollie} from ‘mllies-es6’; << not sure the path is ok.

But the errors shown seems to be transpiler problem to me.

Correct way:

const assign = require('lodash/assign');
