TypeError: handlebars is not a function - Solution?

I'm getting this error when I run nodemon.

brings me this message - app.engine("handlebars",handlebars({defaultLayout:'main'})); ^

TypeError: handlebars is not a function at Object. (C:\Users\yrvsc\Documents\CrudoNodeJs\app.js:8:25)

enter image description here

const express=require('express');
const bodyParser=require('body-parser');
const mysql=require('mysql');
const handlebars = require('express-handlebars');
const app=express();

app.engine("handlebars",handlebars({defaultLayout:'main'}));
app.set('view engine','handlebars');

app.get("/",function(req,res){
   res.render('index');
});

app.listen(3000,function(req,res){
   console.log('Servidor está rodando!');
});

const hbs = handlebars.create({ defaultLayout:'main' });
app.engine('handlebars', hbs.engine);
app.set('view engine', 'handlebars');

Based on npm documentation of express-handlebars it shows you how to config in the proper way
