ts-node execute typescript with module import and module defined

I try to initialize database base via typescript.

my ts is like:

import { User, UserRole } from '../entity/User';
import crypto from 'crypto';
import {dbManager, pwhash } from '..';

async function inituser() 
{
    const user = new User();
    user.email = '[email protected]';
    user.own_organization = []
    user.salt = crypto.randomBytes(16).toString('hex');
    user.password = pwhash("password", user.salt);
    user.role = UserRole.admin;
    await dbManager.save(user);
    const duser = await dbManager.findOne(User);
    return duser;
}
const duser = inituser();

console.log("Loaded users: ", duser);

when I try to run the script by ts-node like:

npx ts-node db/initializers/inituser.ts

there is error for:

I add "type": "module" in package.json file.

{
  "name": "typescript-test",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "type": "module",
...
}

for overcome the error of

(node:3854) Warning: To load an ES module, set "type": "module" in the package.json or use the .mjs extension.
(Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)

The Error Warning: To load an ES module, set "type": "module" in the package.json or is caused by the following Bug in ts-node: https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-node/issues/935

The Bug is closed, and there is a proposal to solve it, but it is still open: https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-node/issues/1007

I don't need "type": "module" in package.json.

In tsconfig.json, I'm using using "module": "commonjs" instead of "module": "es6",.

I noted this as technical debt pending that ts-node issue #1007 is resolved.
