Webpack + ESLint: "unable to resolve path to module .." (import/no-unresolved)

[boschr]

I'm getting a lot of "unable to resolve path to module .." errors when Hound lints my code. After invest a lot of time to resolve this error without any luck, i hope anybody else has an idea how to resolve this. Are there more people who experience this?

Currently i'm working in a ruby 2.4.1 with rails 5.0.4 environment and I'm using webpack to compile my javascript. I read a lot about the "eslint-import-resolver-webpack" to solve this problem. Locally ESLint with the webpack resolver works fine with my Editor (VS Code) and via the CLI.

I'm using the following versions:

"dependencies": {
  ..  
  "webpack": "^3.3.0",
},
"devDependencies": {
  "eslint": "^4.2.0",
  "eslint-config-airbnb-base": "^11.2.0",
  "eslint-plugin-import": "^2.7.0",
  "eslint-import-resolver-webpack": "^0.8.3",
  ..
}

with this .eslintrc.yml configuration:

settings:
  import/resolver:
    webpack:
      config: 'config/webpack/development.js'

and the following webpack alias resolver:

resolve: {
  ...
  alias: {
    assets: resolve('app/assets'),
    javascript: resolve(settings.source_path),
  },
},

Having the same issue after upgrading eslint-plugin-import from 2.3.0 to 2.7.0

Since Hound doesn't install the extensions and packages locally, the path cannot be resolved. We recommend disabling this rule in your .eslintrc via "import/extensions": "off" or "import/no-unresolved": "off".

I solved this issue by editing my tsconfig.json and adding:

//...
paths: {
 // ...your paths
 "federated-module": ["path/to/federated-module.d.ts"]
}

also in eslintrc:

{
  settings: {
    'import/resolver': {
      typescript: {
        alwaysTryTypes: true
      }
    }
  } 
}

inside my federated-module.d.ts, it had the declare module, etc for the missing types.
