Dynamically import module in TypeScript

August 22, 2023 by Tarik

ES proposal dynamic import is supported since TypeScript 2.4. Document is here.

import function is asynchronous and returns a Promise.

var x = 'someplace';
import(x).then((a) => {
  // `a` is imported and can be used here
});

Or using async/await:

async function run(x) {
  const a = await import(x);
  // `a` is imported and can be used here
}
