Pattern: Use of relative import
Issue: -
Do not use relative paths when importing external modules or ES6 import declarations. The advantages of removing all relative paths from imports is that:
- The import name will be consistent across all files and subdirectories so searching for usages is much easier.
- Moving source files to different folders will not require you to edit your import statements.
-
- It will be possible to copy and paste import lines between files regardless of the file location.
-
- version control diffs will be simplified by having overall fewer edits to the import lines.
Option allow-siblings can be passed to allow relative imports for files in the same or nested folders.
