only require specific exports from a required commonjs module

Question

In es6 I can do this:

const { findIndex, last } from 'lodash';

Can I do the same in commonjs with require?

Answer 1

Yes, you can use destructuring in the same way in node v6 and superior. More info here: Destructuring in Node.JS

Example:

const { findIndex, last } = require('lodash');
