I’m developing a library for use in an ember app. The library consists of a few files, each of which contains a single class. Some classes depend on others, and I’m importing the needed classes with something like `var libClass = require('../libClass');`. I’ve compiled this library with Browserify, pushed this library to github, required and installed it through `bower.json`, and successfully imported it in `Brocfile.js` with `app.import('bower_components/mylib/dist/mylib.js')`. This makes it available in my ember-cli app as a **global** , but I want it available through **es6 imports** so I can import it only where needed, and only which parts as needed. I’m open to replacing the `require` syntax with es6 syntax in the library, but I need my automated tests to run a single command (currently `npm test` or `./node_modules/mocha/bin/mocha`). How do I make this happen?
