I am working with a Lerna monorepo. I often see one package make imports from deep inside another package, for example:
import { SomeType } from "@schema/folder/folder/file.ts"
This is undesirable, because sometimes we need to transform auto-generated types before exporting them via index.d.ts. This sometimes results in the wrong, non-transformed type being imported from deep inside the package.
I would like to somehow constrain the files/folders that one package exposes to the others, so such imports would not be possible:
import { SomeType } from "@schema" // valid
import { SomeType2 } from "@schema/folder/folder/file.ts" // invalid
What are my options?
I am not sure what other info I can provide since I have little to no experience with this stuff.
When you use eslint, you can add a no-restricted-imports rule to the eslint settings of the package:
"no-restricted-imports": [
"error",
{
"patterns": ["@schema/folder/*"]
}
],
