exporting a variable and getting access to it

Question

I'm using the code below to get access to variables in variables.js from main.js:

variables.js:

export default {
    bla: 123,
}

main.js:

var vars = require('./variables').default;
class MyClass extends blabla {
  constructor (){
    super();
  }

  myFunction (){
    console.log(vars.aa)
  }
}

in main.js to get access to variable I have to use vars.bla.

my question is How can I get access to it just with bla(yea to lazy)

Are you sure you want to do that? Could be a bad idea if you have the same variable name in both files. I think there's no way to do that, anyways. You'll have to make the variables manually. You could use destructuring. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3422458/unpacking-array-into-separate-variables-in-javascript — Phiter, Aug 29 '18 at 18:41

You can access it by using destructuring assignment like this:

let { bla } = require("./variables").default

console.log(bla)

variables.js:

module.exports = {
  bla:123
}

Other files:

var {bla} = require('./variables');
console.log(bla)
