Undefined "exports" when nothing is exported #15795
Description
TypeScript Version: [email protected]
Code
import { render } from "react-dom";
import * as React from "react";
import { initLocales } from "./gui/components/intl";
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", (event) => {
initLocales(true);
const [viewComponentName] = new URL(window.location.href).search.substr(1).split("&");
const view = require(`./gui/views/${viewComponentName}`).default;
render(React.createElement(view, null), document.getElementById("appcontainer"));
});Expected behavior:
"use strict";
const react_dom_1 = require("react-dom");
const React = require("react");
const intl_1 = require("./gui/components/intl");
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", (event) => {
intl_1.initLocales(true);
const [viewComponentName] = new URL(window.location.href).search.substr(1).split("&");
const view = require(`./gui/views/${viewComponentName}`).default;
react_dom_1.render(React.createElement(view, null), document.getElementById("appcontainer"));
});Actual behavior:
"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
const react_dom_1 = require("react-dom");
const React = require("react");
const intl_1 = require("./gui/components/intl");
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", (event) => {
intl_1.initLocales(true);
const [viewComponentName] = new URL(window.location.href).search.substr(1).split("&");
const view = require(`./gui/views/${viewComponentName}`).default;
react_dom_1.render(React.createElement(view, null), document.getElementById("appcontainer"));
});This is a recurrnig issue. #14351
I reported this previously.
After compilation appears
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
and the result is "Uncaught ReferenceError: exports is not defined.
Ther is no actual module exported in the file. If I manually remove this piece of code everything works fine.
