how do I add something to the deps.ts file that isn't in curly braces?

I have

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

directly in source file and it works properly. I'd like to move it to my deps.ts file but I can't figure out how to do it.

This works for me:

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

export { formatRelative };

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

export { formatRelative };

Is there a better way to do this?

You can do something like:

// deps.ts
export { default as formatRelative } from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts"

// main.ts
import { formRelative } from "./deps.ts" // default import, you can change the name

// deps.ts
export { default as formatRelative } from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts"

// main.ts
import { formRelative } from "./deps.ts" // default import, you can change the name

In the repl it returns

Module { default: [Function <name>] }

Module { default: [Function <name>] }

Since it’s a default export I think you don’t need it, but I’m not sure I’ll check

Yup you’re right, since we are getting the default and exporting it under a named export, so we need the braces in the main file 👍🏻

how will it work differently than expected?

This is what I am running and seems to be giving me correct answers. deps.ts

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

export { formatRelative };

import formatRelative from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

export { formatRelative };

my_display_in_html.ts

import { formatRelative } from "./port.ts";

...

function htmlize(o: Original): string {
  const tim =
    // o._id.getTimestamp().toDateString()
    formatRelative(o._id.getTimestamp(), new Date());
  return `<h3>${tim}</h3>
 <div>${o.raw.replaceAll("\n", "<br/>")}</div>`;
}

import { formatRelative } from "./port.ts";

...

function htmlize(o: Original): string {
  const tim =
    // o._id.getTimestamp().toDateString()
    formatRelative(o._id.getTimestamp(), new Date());
  return `<h3>${tim}</h3>
 <div>${o.raw.replaceAll("\n", "<br/>")}</div>`;
}

You are right deps.ts

export { default as formatRelative } from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

export { default as formatRelative } from "https://deno.land/x/date_fns@v2.22.1/formatRelative/index.ts";

also works

Thank you Is there some version of this that will work with my FindCursor problem? I want to get the FindCursor type from the mongo package and I don't see how to do it

javi•2y ago

If you’re using mongodb my personal recommendation is to ditch the packages and to use the mongodb atlas data api. It’s extremely easy and you can use native fetch

dan.the.discloser•2y ago

thank you. is that one of these https://deno.land/x/atlas_sdk@v1.0.3 https://deno.land/x/atlas_sdk3@v0.3.1 which should I be using? ?? will they work with local installations of mongodb ??

javi•2y ago

My bad, you didn’t specify that you had a local installation so I assumed you were using atlas. You’ll need the package you were using for the local installation

dan.the.discloser•2y ago

If I stick to Altas, which of those two packages would I want to use? I don't understand the version numbering?

javi•2y ago

It goes from left to right. In this case 1.0.3 is newer than 0.3.1, so use the newer one
