Include es6 class from external file in Node.js

Question

Say I have a file class.js:

class myClass {    constructor(arg){       console.log(arg);    } } 

And I wanted to use the myClass class in another file. How would I go about this?
I've tried:
var myClass = require('./class.js');
But it didn't work.
I've looked at module.exports but haven't found an example that works for es6 classes.

Answer 1

Either do

module.exports = class MyClass {     constructor(arg){         console.log(arg);     } }; 

and import with

var a = require("./class.js"); new a("fooBar");

or use the newish syntax (may require you to babelify your code first)

export class MyClass {     constructor(arg){         console.log(arg);     } }; 

and import with

import {myClass} from "./class.js";
