How do I use a proxy with Node and ESM?
In the olden days I had something like this...
const HttpsProxyAgent = require("https-proxy-agent");
new HttpsProxyAgent(URL)
However when I convert to ESM...
import HttpsProxyAgent from "https-proxy-agent";
// Also tried
// import * as HttpsProxyAgent from "https-proxy-agent";
new HttpsProxyAgent(URL)
I get...
(node:7856) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: HttpsProxyAgent is not
a constructor
So how do I accomplish this now? Is there a native ES6 proxy that node supports?
node.js

Exporting any sort of function asmodule.exports
in CommonJS became somewhat of a bad habit when ES6 module syntax was introduced to the specification. It's not guaranteed by the specification thatimport * as ...
will actually retain the function and not just its properties. But to indirectly answer your question,console.log(HttpsProxyAgent);
afterimport HttpsProxyAgent from 'https-proxy-agent';
and that output should tell you what you need to know.
