Don't transform 'await import()'

[samchouse]

// .swcrc
{
  "jsc": {
    "parser": {
      "syntax": "typescript",
      "dynamicImport": true
    }
  },
  "module": {
    "type": "commonjs"
  }
}

// eslint.ts
import { ESLint } from 'eslint';
import minimist from 'minimist';

const args = minimist(process.argv.slice(2));
const runner = new ESLint({
  fix: args.fix,
  useEslintrc: true,
  cwd: process.cwd(),
  ignorePath: args['ignore-path']
});

const runESLint = async () => {
  const chalk = (await import('chalk')).default;

  const report = await runner.lintFiles(args._);

  if (
    report.reduce(
      (prev, curr) =>
        prev + curr.errorCount + curr.fatalErrorCount + curr.warningCount,
      0
    ) > 0
  ) {
    const formatter = await runner.loadFormatter();
    console.log(formatter.format(report));
    process.exit(1);
  }

  console.log(chalk.greenBright('✔ No ESLint warnings or errors'));
};

runESLint();

How do I not transform await import() statements to require() statements?

I think we need a new option for this, can you file an issue?

Has this been reported as an issue and/or implemented?

I think I'm having a similar issue by trying to import an ESM file into TS CJS file:

// .swcrc
{
  "env": {
    "targets": {
      "node": "17.9"
    }
  },
  "jsc": {
    "target": "es2019",
    "parser": {
      "syntax": "typescript",
      "tsx": true
    }
  },
  "module": {
    "type": "commonjs",
    "ignoreDynamic": true
  },
  "sourceMaps": "inline"
}


// test.ts
const { createObject  } = await import("factory.mjs");

throws SyntaxError: await is only valid in async functions and the top level bodies of modules

@pbadenski I think it's a different one. It will work if you have an import statement I think?
The thread is about adding new config and your case is about the file being parsed as a script while there's import.

Can you file an issue for it?

Got it! Thanks, I'll file an issue.
