Import error for SvelteKit

[michelheusschen]

Describe the bug

Importing this package in SvelteKit leads to warnings in development and to errors in production builds related to ES modules.

I've set up a demo where I've made the following changes from a new SvelteKit project:

1. npm install copy-image-clipboard
2. In src/routes/+page.svelte I've added basic code to check for image copy support:

import { canCopyImagesToClipboard } from 'copy-image-clipboard';

onMount(() => {
	const canCopy = canCopyImagesToClipboard();

	console.log('Can Copy Images To Clipboard:', canCopy);
});

When running in development mode with vite dev I get the following warning: copy-image-clipboard doesn't appear to be written in CJS, but also doesn't appear to be a valid ES module (i.e. it doesn't have "type": "module" or an .mjs extension for the entry point). Please contact the package author to fix. Forced re-optimization of dependencies

When creating a production build with vite build I get the following error:

(node:13) Warning: To load an ES module, set "type": "module" in the package.json or use the .mjs extension.
(Use `node --trace-warnings ...` to show where the warning was created)
/home/projects/sveltejs-kit-template-default-8qhsvf/node_modules/copy-image-clipboard/dist/index.js:175
export { canCopyImagesToClipboard, convertBlobToPng, copyBlobToClipboard, copyImageToClipboard, createImageElement, getBlobFromImageElement, getBlobFromImageSource, isJpegBlob, isPngBlob, requestClipboardWritePermission };
^^^^^^

SyntaxError: export declarations may only appear at top level of a module

i got same err

[Mathieu-COSYNS]

I also encountered this problem. I think you should add "type" : "module" in package.json

[benmccann]

publint is really helpful for catching errors like these: https://publint.dev/copy-image-clipboard

[benmccann]

This was fixed in https://github.com/LuanEdCosta/copy-image-clipboard/pull/45 by adding the missing "type": "module", but hasn't been released yet

@LuanEdCosta do you think we could get a new release?

[benmccann]

@LuanEdCosta it'd be super helpful to us if we could get a new release. Would you be able to help us out?
