ES6 shorthand import

ecmascript-6, import

Solution

Yes, you can do it like:

import { assert } from 'chai';

`assert` must be exporting from `chai` in that case. See spec here and about es6 modules here

Problem

Is there a shorter ES6 way of doing: ``` var assert = require('chai').assert; ``` than ``` import chai from 'chai'; var assert = chai.assert; ``` (chai is the chai-assertion library, in case you haven't heard of it yet.)
