Conditional Import and Export in Javascript

Question

I want to import two objects from different files based on some conditions, and export the imported object with different name:

if(condition1)
    import {obj3, obj4} from './file1';
else
    import {obj5, obj6} from './file2';

export {obj1, obj2}

you can try the factory pattern for this. – vikscool Aug 13 '18 at 11:24 — vikscool, Aug 13 '18 at 11:24
concwerning the rename, you can use the **as** syntax – IsraGab Aug 13 '18 at 11:30 — IsraGab, Aug 13 '18 at 11:30

You could have an intermediate importer/exporter that re-export a given import based on a condition, like this:

//exportSelector.js;
import {obj1, obj2}
let exportedObj = condition1 ? obj1 : obj2;
export exportedObj;

//import.js
import exportedObj;
