How to import functions from different js file in a Vue+webpack+vue-loader project

Say I want to import data into a component from src/mylib.js:

var test = {
  foo () { console.log('foo') },
  bar () { console.log('bar') },
  baz () { console.log('baz') }
}

export default test

In my .Vue file I simply imported test from src/mylib.js:

<script> 
  import test from '@/mylib'

  console.log(test.foo())
  ...
</script>

After a few hours of messing around I eventually got something that works, partially answered in a similar issue here: How do I include a JavaScript file in another JavaScript file?

BUT there was an import that was screwing the rest of it up:

Use require in .vue files

<script>
  var mylib = require('./mylib');
  export default {
  ....

Exports in mylib

 exports.myfunc = () => {....}

Avoid import

The actual issue in my case (which I didn't think was relevant!) was that mylib.js was itself using other dependencies. The resulting error seems to have nothing to do with this, and there was no transpiling error from webpack but anyway I had:

import models from './model/models'
import axios from 'axios'

This works so long as I'm not using mylib in a .vue component. However as soon as I use mylib there, the error described in this issue arises.

I changed to:

let models = require('./model/models');
let axios = require('axios');

And all works as expected.


I like the answer of Anacrust, though, by the fact "console.log" is executed twice, I would like to do a small update for src/mylib.js:

let test = {
  foo () { return 'foo' },
  bar () { return 'bar' },
  baz () { return 'baz' }
}

export default test

All other code remains the same...
