Both Require and import not working javascript

I am trying to create a cli tool to make a todo list. For some reason I can't figure out I'm unable to use either require or import when trying to import the Chalk package for highlighting terminal outputs
here is what I have for my index.js file
#! /usr/bin/env node
const { program } = require("commander");
const list = require("./commands/list.js");
program.command("list").description("List all the TODO tasks").action(list);
program.parse();
Here is my list.js file
#! /usr/bin/env node
const conf = new (require("conf"))();
const chalk = require("chalk");
function list() {
const todoList = conf.get("todo-list");
if (todoList && todoList.length) {
console.log(
chalk.blue.bold(
"Tasks in green are done. Tasks in yellow are still not done."
)
);
todoList.forEach((task, index) => {
if (task.done) {
console.log(chalk.greenBright(`${index}. ${task.text}`));
} else {
console.log(chalk.yellowBright(`${index}. ${task.text}`));
}
});
} else {
console.log(chalk.red.bold("You don't have any tasks yet."));
}
}
module.exports = list;
and my package.json file

Please help me

Use the import syntax, and add "type": "module" into your package.json to allow for ES6 imports.

Error when import firebase-functions-test when testing with mocha

I am trying to setup a Firebase Cloud Functions repo to run mocha test. However, it throws the following error when I use import * as firebase from "firebase-functions-test"; or const firebase = require("firebase-functions-test")();. You can see in my code that I haven't even called the actual firebase functions yet so I think this a setup issue.
Question: What change do I need to make mocha test running for Firebase Functions testing using import syntax?
Working test code
import { assert } from "chai";

assert.equal(0, 0);

node js MODULE_NOT_FOUND error in node_modules

Why am I getting this error?

It seems their documentation is incorrect. You need to require the npm module like this:
const csv = require('jquery-csv');

Troubles with using gulp-eslint

Im trying to add gulp-eslint to my build process, having gulp watch my files and run eslint whenever a file is changed. However, I am getting an error that says:

when I try to run the ESLint task that I wrote.
Here is the code for the eslint task:
gulp.task('eslint', () => {
return gulp.src(lintscripts)
.pipe(eslint({

"node": true,
"commonjs": true,

}
})).pipe(eslint.format());
});

Please check your node version. You are using object destructuring which is available from Node v6. If you're using node v4 then this might not work.

Including local npm libraries

I am using the serverless framework to develop lambda functions in the aws cloud. Currently, I am running into an issue when including a library that I made. It seems the recommended way to do this is to either:
1) npm install <path/to/your/lib>
2) npm link and related commands
In the first situation, when using npm install ../libs, and include the module using const Libs = require('libs') , the package appears to install correctly (it is listed in the package.json). However, on uploading the service to aws or using sls invoke local -f my-func the following error is thrown:
{ Error: Cannot find module 'libs'

Using npm link gives similar results as well. I have a hunch that the issue has to do with the fact that I'm using babel and webpack, but I'm not sure.
Here is the contents of my webpack.config.js file:
const slsw = require("serverless-webpack");
const nodeExternals = require("webpack-node-externals");
module.exports = {
entry: slsw.lib.entries,
target: "node",
externals: [nodeExternals()],
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
loader: "babel-loader",
include: __dirname,
exclude: /node_modules/
}
]
},
};
Including the individual clients, instead of the overall lib seems to have solved the above error, but now I am faced with a new error.
