ES6 syntax

[kenziesimpson]

How would I be able to import this with ES6 syntax, seeing as by default you are supposed to use a require statement like so:

var LifxClient = require('node-lifx').Client;
var client = new LifxClient();

client.init();

How would you do this with ES6 syntax?

ES6 import syntax can only be used with transpiling for now and is not native so far. I would think something like this might work (not tested):

import {Client as LifxClient} from 'node-lifx';
const client = new LifxClient;

client.init();

Does this work for you?

You should be able to just import the default with:

import LifxClient from 'node-lifx';

I'm pretty sure the second way worked for me. Thanks!
