What to do with a regular jquery plugin connected via npm?

Question

JavaScript

There is a classic jquery plugin that you connect to your main scripts, and before it you also connect jquery and call it $().plugin();
. That's just not a task - using the module system, this method is inconvenient (extra requests for jquery and the plugin, and indeed jquery is already tightly embedded from npm in each module) and the plugin was added to the npm library.
And what to do with it now?
I import it: import 'plugin-jquery', but the scripts do not react much and cause an error that there is no such function ( $().plugin is not a function).
How to connect it then?

Answer 1

Installed jquery and suggestions-jquery via npm, wrote in the js file:

var $ = require('jquery');
require('suggestions-jquery');

$('.js-class').suggestions();

There are no errors. Through inport everything works too.
