# import/no-restricted-paths: Restrict which files can be imported in a given folder
|
||
|
||
Some projects contain files which are not always meant to be executed in the same environment.
|
||
For example consider a web application that contains specific code for the server and some specific code for the browser/client. In this case you don’t want to import server-only files in your client code.
|
||
|
||
In order to prevent such scenarios this rule allows you to define restricted zones where you can forbid files from imported if they match a specific path.
|
||
|
||
## Rule Details
|
||
|
||
This rule has one option. The option is an object containing the definition of all restricted `zones` and the optional `basePath` which is used to resolve relative paths within.
|
||
The default value for `basePath` is the current working directory.
|
||
|
||
Each zone consists of the `target` path, a `from` path, and an optional `except` and `message` attribute.
|
||
- `target` is the path where the restricted imports should be applied. It can be expressed by
|
||
- directory string path that matches all its containing files
|
||
- glob pattern matching all the targeted files
|
||
- `from` path defines the folder that is not allowed to be used in an import. It can be expressed by
|
||
- directory string path that matches all its containing files
|
||
- glob pattern matching all the files restricted to be imported
|
||
- `except` may be defined for a zone, allowing exception paths that would otherwise violate the related `from`. Note that it does not alter the behaviour of `target` in any way.
|
||
- in case `from` is a glob pattern, `except` must be an array of glob patterns as well
|
||
- in case `from` is a directory path, `except` is relative to `from` and cannot backtrack to a parent directory.
|
||
- `message` - will be displayed in case of the rule violation.
|
||
|
||
### Examples
|
||
|
||
Given the following folder structure:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
my-project
|
||
├── client
|
||
│ └── foo.js
|
||
│ └── baz.js
|
||
└── server
|
||
└── bar.js
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
and the current file being linted is `my-project/client/foo.js`.
|
||
|
||
The following patterns are considered problems when configuration set to `{ "zones": [ { "target": "./client", "from": "./server" } ] }`:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import bar from '../server/bar';
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following patterns are not considered problems when configuration set to `{ "zones": [ { "target": "./client", "from": "./server" } ] }`:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import baz from '../client/baz';
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
Given the following folder structure:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
my-project
|
||
├── client
|
||
│ └── foo.js
|
||
│ └── baz.js
|
||
└── server
|
||
├── one
|
||
│ └── a.js
|
||
│ └── b.js
|
||
└── two
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
and the current file being linted is `my-project/server/one/a.js`.
|
||
|
||
and the current configuration is set to:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
{ "zones": [ {
|
||
"target": "./tests/files/restricted-paths/server/one",
|
||
"from": "./tests/files/restricted-paths/server",
|
||
"except": ["./one"]
|
||
} ] }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following pattern is considered a problem:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import a from '../two/a'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following pattern is not considered a problem:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import b from './b'
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---------------
|
||
|
||
Given the following folder structure:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
my-project
|
||
├── client
|
||
└── foo.js
|
||
└── sub-module
|
||
└── bar.js
|
||
└── baz.js
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
and the current configuration is set to:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
{ "zones": [ {
|
||
"target": "./tests/files/restricted-paths/client/!(sub-module)/**/*",
|
||
"from": "./tests/files/restricted-paths/client/sub-module/**/*",
|
||
} ] }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following import is considered a problem in `my-project/client/foo.js`:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import a from './sub-module/baz'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The following import is not considered a problem in `my-project/client/sub-module/bar.js`:
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
import b from './baz'
|
||
```
