Is @smithy/hash-node ESM-only? Can you require() it?

Last verified Sep 9, 2026 against @smithy/hash-node@4.5.2. JSON

CommonJS CommonJS — require() works on every Node.js version

@smithy/hash-node ships CommonJS only. require("@smithy/hash-node") works everywhere. import "@smithy/hash-node" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.

It also declares a "module" field, so bundlers such as webpack, Vite and esbuild pick up an ESM build for tree-shaking.
