import jsonwebtoken throws error

Description

import jsonwebtoken throws error

Reproduction

The code:

import { verify } from "jsonwebtoken";

The error message:

import { verify } from "jsonwebtoken";
         ^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Named export 'verify' not found. The requested module 'jsonwebtoken' is a CommonJS module, which may not support all module.exports as named exports.
CommonJS modules can always be imported via the default export, for example using:

import pkg from 'jsonwebtoken';
const { verify } = pkg;

Facing same issue! what happened?

For me, not working with even 9.0.0. I can access other functions such as decode

I started experiencing this problem after I switched to using ESM modules on my code. The solution, as the error message suggests, was to stop using named exports and rely on the default import syntax.

It can be written like this

import jwt from 'jsonwebtoken'; const { sign, verify } = jwt;

I just commented @ts-ignore before calling verify method and it all started working. Weird. Can anyone tell me what might be the issue? Using Nitro server.
