In my JavaScript project, I have a module named utilities stored in a file called utilities.js. This module contains basic functions that I want to keep hidden from the global namespace. I know that in order to achieve this, I need to create a module, export it, import it into the necessary file, and then call its functions. However, I am facing difficulty in properly exporting the module. Despite trying various methods, I keep encountering errors. Below is the code snippet that is causing the issue:
var utilities = (function(){
return {
debounce: function(func, wait, immediate){
var timeout;
return function() {
var context = this, args = arguments;
var later = function() {
timeout = null;
if (!immediate) func.apply(context, args);
};
var callNow = immediate && !timeout;
clearTimeout(timeout);
timeout = setTimeout(later, wait);
if (callNow) func.apply(context, args);
};
}
}
})();
export { utilities };
The error message I am receiving is:
application.js:12560 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token export
