SyntaxError: The requested module does not provide an export named 'connect'

when i use require commonjs everything is working

const { Schema, connect } = require("mongoose");

connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/usersdb", {
  useNewUrlParser: true
});

but when i use import es6 i get error

import { connect } from "mongoose";

connect(
  "mongodb://localhost:27017/usersdb",
  {
    useNewUrlParser: true
  }
);

SyntaxError: The requested module >'file:///C:/Users/Rich%20Warrior/Desktop/mon0022/node_modules/mongoose/index>.js' does not provide an export named 'connect'

and if you write like that 

import * as mongoose from "mongoose";

mongoose.connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/usersdb", {
  useNewUrlParser: true
});

TypeError: mongoose.connect is not a function

package.json

{
  "name": "dur",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "nodemon -r esm src/index.js",
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "keywords": [],
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "esm": "^3.2.25",
    "express": "^4.17.1",
    "i": "^0.3.6",
    "mongoose": "^5.7.8",
    "nodemon": "^1.19.4"
  }
}

I want to use the es6 module.Is there a way to use es6 modules with mongoose without getting an error?

NodeJS doesn't support it yet. You will have to use something like bable. Check this out from NodeJS doc as well.
