TypeError: pubnub_1.default is not a constructor

I’m not sure this issue is related to pubnub or ts-node, but when I use pubnub with ts-node together, it will throw out the following error:

TypeError: pubnub_1.default is not a constructor

My code is:

import Pubnub from "pubnub"
const pubnub = new Pubnub({
  subscribeKey: "sub-c-52a9ab50-291b-11e5-baaa-0619f8945a4f"
})

And my tsconfig.json is:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "lib": ["es6"],
    "typeRoots": [
      "./node_modules/@types/",
      "./src/@types/"
    ]
  }
}

I’ve already installed types for pubnub,

npm install pubnub --save
npm install @types/pubnub --save-dev

I guess I need to change some configurations in tsconfig.json, any ideas?

The correct import is import pubnub = require('pubnub').

Just add this setting in your ts.config "esModuleInterop": true,
