How do I use a proxy with Node and ESM?

Question

In the olden days I had something like this...

const HttpsProxyAgent = require("https-proxy-agent");
new HttpsProxyAgent(URL)

However when I convert to ESM...

import HttpsProxyAgent from "https-proxy-agent";
// Also tried
// import * as HttpsProxyAgent from "https-proxy-agent";
new HttpsProxyAgent(URL)

I get...

(node:7856) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: HttpsProxyAgent is not a constructor

So how do I accomplish this now? Is there a native ES6 proxy that node supports?

Answer 1

you can also do:

new HttpsProxyAgent.HttpsProxyAgent(URL);
