Hi. I have kotlinjs amd module which generates js file starting with define(['exports', 'kotlin', .....
However, to load it in npm I need to require 'amdefine' first, as described here http://requirejs.org/docs/node.html#nodeModules there should be a line like this at the top of the generated file if (typeof define !== 'function') { var define = require('amdefine')(module); }
Is there any way to do it in kotlinjs?

Sounds like you need to change the module format in your build script to commonjs

If you are going to use your compiled module in both, browser and nodejs umd would be better.

Use commonjs for nodejs like environments and amd and plain for browser like environments

umd seems to be the only way to make kotlinjs work in both node and browser

(as I understand there are more options when using normal js and this difference is somewhat unintuitive with kotlinjs, so I might be not the first and not the last person to have these problems 🤔)
