Cannot resolve 'mathjs/number'

Question

I am using Math.js to parse and evaluate a mathematical expression, and am following the example at https://mathjs.org/docs/custom_bundling.html#numbers-only as I only need basic number support. "mathjs": "^8.1.1", is listed in my package.json dependencies.

When I run the example code below, I get Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'mathjs/number':

// use light-weight, numbers only implementations of functions
import { create, all } from 'mathjs/number'

const math = create(all)

Answer 1

Looks like maybe the documentation hasn't caught up. I was able to get this working by changing the line

import { create, all } from 'mathjs/number';

to

import { create, all } from 'mathjs/lib/esm/number';
