astHelpers.createNamedImport() function

Adds a named import to a script AST. If an import declaration for the module already exists, this function merges the new specifier into that declaration. It doesn't create duplicate imports.

Signature:

export declare function createNamedImport(ast: namedTypes.Program, moduleSpecifier: string, importName: string, localName?: string): void;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
ast	namedTypes.Program	The script AST.
moduleSpecifier	string	The module name to import from, such as 'vue'.
importName	string	The exported name of the import.
localName	string	(Optional) The local alias. Defaults to importName.

Returns:

void

Example

// import { defineComponent } from 'vue';
createNamedImport(scriptAST, 'vue', 'defineComponent');

// import { map as lodashMap } from 'lodash-es';
createNamedImport(scriptAST, 'lodash-es', 'map', 'lodashMap');
