I am using node-worker-thread-pool package.I am unable to import certain node modules into my worker.ts, giving an error SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module. How to resolve this. Is there any other package which can help, since my task for worker thread have other import/module dependency?

import {Item} from "@package in node modules";
^^^^^^
