Error importing python-shell on windows 10

[Gatunox]

On my windows 10, with node --version v11.2.0 when i execute import {PythonShell} from 'python-shell'; I get:

import {PythonShell} from 'python-shell';
       ^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token {

What's wrong?

Using let {PythonShell} = require('python-shell') Does work.

Did you read this part of the readme?

Note the use of imports! If you're not using typescript ಠ_ಠ you can still get imports to work with this guide.

Ok, I'm not planning to install nor use TypeScript so I will disregard and close this.

[Almenon]

You don't have to use typescript, see the link I provided above:

So if you want to use imports you have four options:

1. Use latest version of node with --experimental-modules flag. Node 8.5 might also work.
2. use babel
3. use esm
4. use typescript (not applicable in your case)

[Gatunox]

Yes, understood, I only mentioned it because that wat the option recomended on that link, But since I know trat required works like I mentioned before I'm ok with that, I will keep using require.

Ah, okay then.
