Mocha cannot find module 'can-connect/can/super-map/'

CanJS

My npm test command, mocha components/*/*.cmd.test.js -r babel-register -r jsdom-global/register fails as mocha cannot find superMap which is imported like so, import superMap from "can-connect/can/super-map/";. However mocha could find jquery which is imported like so, import $ from "jquery";. What am I missing?

Does this work?

import superMap from "can-connect/can/super-map/super-map";

Excluding the file name when it repeats the last folder name is a StealJS feature, so that might be the issue if your code isn’t being loaded by StealJS.

Works! I assumed JavaScript can import from a folder name. After you said revised how it works. Thank you.

Could you explain why importing jquery works like that?

You can load jquery because they have set the main in their package.json: https://github.com/jquery/jquery/blob/master/package.json#L6.

So when that package is required it loads the file pointed to by main.
