The baseurl and paths defined in tsconfig.json don't work

[afshin-hoseini]

This is my tsconfig.json file:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2015",
    "module": "es2015",
    "jsx": "react-native",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
    ,
    "sourceMap": true
    ,"baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "Models/Plan" : [

        "src/Models/Plan"
      ]
    }

  }
}

But I can't figure out why this import doesn't work:

import Plan from 'Models/Plan'

The plan.ts file is like:

export default class Plan{

}

You also need to configure react-native for resolving absolute paths. I've done it before but can't remember exactly how. Something to do with extra json files. Can't check right now but will comment again in a couple of hours with more guidance if you still need it.

@ds300 Yeah sure I'm new to react-native and I'll need a lot of help...

Thank you for your support.

I followed this method: https://medium.com/@davidjwoody/how-to-use-absolute-paths-in-react-native-6b06ae3f65d1

i.e. placing a package.json file containing only {"name": "src"} in my src folder, and then importing everything from "src/foo" or "src/bar/baz" etc.

You could also try that babel plugin mentioned at the bottom. Seems promising.

@ds300 Thank you.
