cannot import local dependency

Question

I am trying to write a local npm module in ES6, i'm using babel, npm... I have no error when i'm running npm install, but when i'm trying to call the module i have this error :

Cannot find module './lib/daihinmin'

I have tried almost everything in my require :

var daihinmin=require('./lib/daihinmin');
var daihinmin=require('daihinmin');
var daihinmin=require('daihinmin.js');

None of this works and i don't see why :(

This is my module package.json :

{
  "name": "daihinmin",
  "main": "./lib/daihimin.js",
  "scripts": {
    "compile": "babel --presets es2015 -d lib/ src/",
    "prepublish": "npm run compile"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-cli": "^6.5.1",
    "babel-preset-es2015": "^6.5.0"
  }
}

And this is my app package.json :

{
  "name": "MrPresident",
  "main": "app.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.13.3",
    "daihinmin": "./lib/daihinmin"
  }
}

Thanks for your help :-)

Are you exporting in `daihinmin.js`? – Mario Tacke Feb 09 '16 at 16:47 — Mario Tacke, Feb 09 '16 at 16:47
It was a typo in my export (a noob mistake) thank you! – sanghin Feb 09 '16 at 23:40 — sanghin, Feb 09 '16 at 23:40

EDIT

It's fixed thanks to :

Babel 6 changes how it exports default

Just a typo in my export.

export default class Daihimin {
    helloWorld() {
        console.log("helloWorld");
    }
}

Instead of

export default class Daihinmin {
    helloWorld() {
        console.log("helloWorld");
    }
}

Thank you!

But now i've got an other error :

daihinmin.helloWorld is not a function

var daihinmin=require('daihinmin');
daihinmin.helloWorld();

And again i can't understand why :(
