How can I alias a default import in JavaScript?

April 28, 2022 by IT Nursery

Using ES6 modules, I know I can alias a named import:

import { foo as bar } from 'my-module';

And I know I can import a default import:

import defaultMember from 'my-module';

I’d like to alias a default import and I had thought the following would work:

import defaultMember as alias from 'my-module';

But that results in a parsing (syntax) error.

How can I (or can I?) alias a default import?
