validator does not provide an export named 'default'

[Maxreglez]

I use the validator in my TypeScript project. That works and everything is fine.
But then I want to test my project with karma and got this error message SyntaxError: The requested module '../../../../../../node_modules/validator/index.js' does not provide an export named 'default' Is there anything I could do or is it a mistake?

i imported it like this
import validator from "validator";
Version of validator is 12.1.0
Karma Version 4.4.1

PR is welcome!

[sebastianroming]

import validator from 'validator/es';

instead of

import validator from 'validator';

should do the trick here.
The es/index.js file already has an default export named validator.

Works fine for me.

I use

import * as validator from "validator";
