Exported functions created in lua files doesn't appear available for javascript resources

Hi all,

Is there any way to use in javascript resources all the exported functions created in lua resources ?
Right now i’m not able to read those functions.

LUA file:

exports('stopSound', function(arguments)
    local sound = {action = 'stopSound'}
    SendNUIMessage(sound)
end)

fxmanifest:
exports {… ‘stopSound’ }

Another lua resource:
exports.sl_hud:stopSound() – WORKS

Javascript resource:
exports.sl_hud.stopSound() – FAILS ( can not read property ‘stopSound’ of undefined)

i did print the exports variable and is always empty object( {} )

Thank you!

=== EDIT ===

This wasn’t really a problem, i’m using webpack to transpile ts files into js, somehow that “exports” variable is not available from these transpiled scripts, don’t know why.
My solution is this:
I created a js resource like this:

on("exports:get", (resource, func, cb) => {
    let funcs = {}
    if( typeof func == 'object' && func.constructor === Array) {
        for (let i of func) {
            funcs[i] = exports[resource][i]
        }
    } else if (typeof func === 'string') {
        funcs[func] = exports[resource][func]
    }
    cb(funcs)
})

In my ts file i just do this:

emit("exports:get", "sl_hud", ["visibility", "stopSound", "playSound", "seatBeltStatus"], (exports) => {
    sl_hud_exports = exports
})

this way i can get all the exported functions of the sl_hud resource in this variable sl_hud_exports
i just do this: sl_hud_exports.visibility(…)

If someone knows how to avoid this workaround, please consider helping me

---------- EDIT ----------------

I found the solution in another post,
We can use the global variable [ global ]

Example:

global.exports.resource_name.functionname()

global.exports.sl_hud.functionname(...)
