According to the documentation you need these two lines at the top of your file to import videojs.

  <link href="https://vjs.zencdn.net/7.11.4/video-js.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
  <script src="https://vjs.zencdn.net/7.11.4/video.min.js"></script>

console.log(videojs !== undefined)
console.log({"version": videojs.VERSION})
<head>
  <link href="https://vjs.zencdn.net/7.11.4/video-js.css" rel="stylesheet" />
  <script src="https://vjs.zencdn.net/7.11.4/video.min.js"></script>
</head>
