Can you export multiple classes from a single Nodejs Module?

Question

Currently, I have 4 Child Classes each in their own file. I'm requiring them all in the same file. I am wondering if I can contain all 4 of those classes in a single module. Currently, I'm importing them like this

var Jack = require('./Jack.js'); var JackInstance = new Jack(); var Jones = require('./Jones.js'); var JonesInstance = new Jones(); 

I'd like to import them like this

var People = require('./People.js'); var JackInstance = new People.Jack(); 

Or even

var Jack = require('./People.js').Jack; var JackInstance = new Jack(); 

My classes are defined like so

class Jack{     //Memeber variables, functions, etc }  module.exports = Jack; 

Answer 1

You can export multiple classes like this:

e.g. People.js

class Jack{    //Member variables, functions, etc }  class John{    //Member variables, functions, etc }  module.exports = {   Jack : Jack,   John : John } 

And access these classes as you have correctly mentioned:

var People = require('./People.js'); var JackInstance = new People.Jack(); var JohnInstance = new People.John();
