If I'm configuring my JS target using the MPP plugin with js { nodejs {} }, how do I access Node global objects like process etc. from the jsMain source set?

Is there a dependency I need to add besides kotlin-stdlib-js?

@AJ Alt Hi! Unfortunately, there are no external declarations for node js. We have a future request - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-28531

You can use external modifier — https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/js-interop.html#external-modifier

Thank you for the information! I noticed other messages in the slack where people mention using node objects. I assume they've all written external definitions for them? (e.g. https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0B8L3U69/p1574418122205800?thread_ts=1574410411.204900&cid=C0B8L3U69)

I think yes
