I have files as represented:

-js/
    - calc.js
    - tool.js
-index.html

calc.js is a node module of following structure:

module.exports = {
   calculate: function() {...},
   getPrecision: function() {...}
}

and tool.js use require and adds some functions, like that:

const fpcalc = require('./fpcalc');

function changeState() {
//some code using fpcalc
}

I used Browserify to generate bundle.js and added that as script src. One of my buttons on HTML page is using onclick=changeState(). After clicking I'm getting

ReferenceError: changeState is not defined
at HTMLAnchorElement.onclick

Why is that? Is there any other way to make it work?

The function "changeState" is not exported in your tool.js. That means it is only visible inside your bundle.js, but not outside.

Have a look at this: https://makerlog/posts/creating-js-library-builds-with-browserify-and-other-npm-modules

It shows you how to expose your code to the global namespace in javascript.

Here's a very simple way to make it work like you want.

const fpcalc = require('./fpcalc');

window.changeState = () => {
    //some code using fpcalc
}

I have same error, here is my working example.

mac, browserify https://github./perliedman/reproject

1. Must use sudo install globally

   sudo npm install -g brwoserify

   https://github./perliedman/reproject

   sudo npm install reproject // install locally is fine

   Must manually create 'dist' folder for later output file use

2. Must use --s expose global variable function 'reproject' and or 'toWgs84' you will use later in browser js.

   Without --s , will get 'reproject' undefined error . https://makerlog/posts/creating-js-library-builds-with-browserify-and-other-npm-modules browserify --help will list all options.
   -o means output file directory

   browserify node_modules/reproject/index.js --s reproject -o node_modules/reproject/dist/reproject.js

HTML script tag include your above dist/reproject.js

Now, you will not get 'reproejct' undefined error

return reproject(_geometry_, ___from_projection, proj4.WGS84, crss)
