How do I use spl-token through cdn.jsdelivr.net?

Question

I am having some troubles using the spl-token library. How do I use it?

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@solana/[email protected]/lib/cjs/index.min.js"></script>

It is included it like that!

How do I use it now? For Solana web3, I simply use solanaWeb3.function(), but it doesn’t work for spl.

I also tried with this in my JavaScript file: const { TOKEN_PROGRAM_ID, Token} = splToken;, but then I get this error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: splToken is not defined

@solana/spl-token does not export a global like @solana/web3.js does. It's an ES/CommonJS module intended to be bundled with your app.

Nominally, you could use an ES Module import like this:

<script type="module">
  import splToken from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@solana/[email protected]/+esm';
  console.log(splToken);
</script>

…but even then you will have other trouble – namely that uuid has broken exports.
