an working solution for now is

private external fun require(module: String): MyModule

fun get(): MyModule {
            return require("myModule")
}

external interface MyModule {
    fun myMethod(...)
}

Usually you don’t need it, you can use external declaration for MyModule

[gildor]

But if for some reason you need this, you can write universal version of require

[gildor]

external fun <T> require(module: String): T

Looks like JS modules can be "imported" via the @JsModule annotation on the external resource being defined. e.g.:

@JsModule("myModule")
external interface MyModule {
    fun myMethod(...)
}

declaring it as an external object worked because it didn't had an constructor
