Require module with property dynamic Node - Javascript

Question

How can I access a property of a require dynamically,

Instead of doing

 let module = require ("path"). get;
 let module = require ("path"). create;

I would like to do;

var property = "get";
let module = require ("path"). property;

var property = "create";
let module = require ("path"). property;

To be able to have a single line and the property dynamically.

instead of that let module = require ("path"). property;

make that let module = require ("path")[property];

that should work.

If you want a more fancy way

let module = require ("path")[<some_condition> ? 'get' : 'create'];
