import/no-unresolved

Ensures an imported module can be resolved to a module on the local filesystem, as defined by standard Node require.resolve behavior.

See settings for customization options for the resolution (i.e. additional filetypes, NODE_PATH, etc.)

This rule can also optionally report on unresolved modules in CommonJS require('./foo') calls and AMD require(['./foo'], function (foo){...}) and define(['./foo'], function (foo){...}).

To enable this, send { commonjs: true/false, amd: true/false } as a rule option. Both are disabled by default.

If you are using Webpack, see the section on resolvers.

Rule Details

Options

By default, only ES6 imports will be resolved:

js /*eslint import/no-unresolved: 2*/ import x from './foo' // reports if './foo' cannot be resolved on the filesystem

If {commonjs: true} is provided, single-argument require calls will be resolved:

```js /eslint import/no-unresolved: [2, { commonjs: true }]/ const { default: x } = require('./foo') // reported if './foo' is not found

require(0) // ignored require(['x', 'y'], function (x, y) { /.../ }) // ignored ```

Similarly, if { amd: true } is provided, dependency paths for define and require calls will be resolved:

```js /eslint import/no-unresolved: [2, { amd: true }]/ define(['./foo'], function (foo) { /.../ }) // reported if './foo' is not found require(['./foo'], function (foo) { /.../ }) // reported if './foo' is not found

const { default: x } = require('./foo') // ignored ```

Both may be provided, too: js /*eslint import/no-unresolved: [2, { commonjs: true, amd: true }]*/ const { default: x } = require('./foo') // reported if './foo' is not found define(['./foo'], function (foo) { /*...*/ }) // reported if './foo' is not found require(['./foo'], function (foo) { /*...*/ }) // reported if './foo' is not found

ignore

This rule has its own ignore list, separate from [import/ignore]. This is because you may want to know whether a module can be located, regardless of whether it can be parsed for exports: node_modules, CoffeeScript files, etc. are all good to resolve properly, but will not be parsed if configured as such via [import/ignore].

To suppress errors from files that may not be properly resolved by your resolver settings, you may add an ignore key with an array of RegExp pattern strings:

```js /eslint import/no-unresolved: [2, { ignore: ['.img$'] }]/

import { x } from './mod' // may be reported, if not resolved to a module

import coolImg from '../../img/coolImg.img' // will not be reported, even if not found ```

caseSensitive

By default, this rule will report paths whose case do not match the underlying filesystem path, if the FS is not case-sensitive. To disable this behavior, set the caseSensitive option to false.

js /*eslint import/no-unresolved: [2, { caseSensitive: true (default) | false }]*/ const { default: x } = require('./foo') // reported if './foo' is actually './Foo' and caseSensitive: true

When Not To Use It

If you're using a module bundler other than Node or Webpack, you may end up with a lot of false positive reports of missing dependencies.
