Why it's a patch

ESLint's long awaited module resolver overhaul still has not materialized as of ESLint 7. As a stopgap, we created a small .eslintrc.js patch that solves the problem adequately for most real world scenarios. This patch was proposed as an ESLint feature with PR 12460, however the maintainers were not able to accept it unless it is reworked into a fully correct design. Such a requirement would impose the same hurdles as the original GitHub issue; thus, it seems best to stay with the patch approach.

Since the patch is now in wide use, we've converted it into a proper NPM package to simplify maintenance.

How to use it

Add a require() call to the to top of the .eslintrc.js file for each project that depends on your shared ESLint config, for example:

.eslintrc.js

// This is a workaround for https://github.com/eslint/eslint/issues/3458
require('@rushstack/eslint-config/patch/modern-module-resolution');
// Add your "extends" boilerplate here, for example:
module.exports = {
  extends: ['@callback-cats/eslint-config'],
  parserOptions: { tsconfigRootDir: __dirname }
};
