[](https://github.com/changesets/changesets)This is a resolver for `eslint-plugin-import(-x)` plugin, not an ESLint plugin itself, it adds [`TypeScript`][] support to [`eslint-plugin-import`][] (Or maybe you want to try [`eslint-plugin-import-x`][] for faster speed)
This means you can:
- `import`/`require` files with extension `.cts`/`.mts`/`.ts`/`.tsx`/`.d.cts`/`.d.mts`/`.d.ts`
- Use [`paths`](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/module-resolution.html#path-mapping) defined in `tsconfig.json`
- Prefer resolving `@types/*` definitions over plain `.js`/`.jsx`
- Multiple tsconfigs support just like normal
- `imports/exports` fields support in `package.json`## TOC

After version 2.0.0, `.d.ts` will take higher priority then normal `.js`/`.jsx` files on resolving `node_modules` packages in favor of `@types/*` definitions or its own definition.
If you're facing some problems on rules `import/default` or `import/named` from [`eslint-plugin-import`][], do not post any issue here, because they are just working exactly as [expected](https://github.com/import-js/eslint-import-resolver-typescript/issues/31#issuecomment-539751607) on our sides, take [import-js/eslint-plugin-import#1525](https://github.com/import-js/eslint-plugin-import/issues/1525) as reference or post a new issue to [`eslint-plugin-import`][] instead.
## Installation
### `eslint-plugin-import-x`
```sh
# npm
npm i -D eslint-plugin-import-x eslint-import-resolver-typescript# pnpm
pnpm i -D eslint-plugin-import-x eslint-import-resolver-typescript# yarn
yarn add -D eslint-plugin-import-x eslint-import-resolver-typescript
```### `eslint-plugin-import`
```sh
# npm
npm i -D eslint-plugin-import eslint-import-resolver-typescript# pnpm
pnpm i -D eslint-plugin-import eslint-import-resolver-typescript# yarn
yarn add -D eslint-plugin-import eslint-import-resolver-typescript
```## Configuration
### `eslint.config.js`
If you are using `eslint-plugin-import-x@>=4.5.0`, you can use import/require to reference `eslint-import-resolver-typescript` directly in your ESLint flat config:
```js
// eslint.config.js, CommonJS is also supported
import { createTypeScriptImportResolver } from 'eslint-import-resolver-typescript'export default [
{
settings: {
'import-x/resolver-next': [
createTypeScriptImportResolver({
alwaysTryTypes: true, // always try to resolve types under `@types` directory even it doesn't contain any source code, like `@types/unist`bun: true, // resolve Bun modules https://github.com/import-js/eslint-import-resolver-typescript#bun
// Choose from one of the "project" configs below or omit to use /tsconfig.json or /jsconfig.json by default
// use /path/to/folder/tsconfig.json or /path/to/folder/jsconfig.json
project: 'path/to/folder',// Multiple tsconfigs/jsconfigs (Useful for monorepos, but discouraged in favor of `references` supported)
// use a glob pattern
project: 'packages/*/{ts,js}config.json',// use an array
project: [
'packages/module-a/tsconfig.json',
'packages/module-b/jsconfig.json',
],// use an array of glob patterns
project: [
'packages/*/tsconfig.json',
'other-packages/*/jsconfig.json',
],
}),
],
},
},
]
```But if you are using `eslint-plugin-import` or the older version of `eslint-plugin-import-x`, you can't use require/import:
```js
// eslint.config.js, CommonJS is also supported
export default [
{
settings: {
'import/resolver': {
typescript: {
alwaysTryTypes: true, // always try to resolve types under `@types` directory even it doesn't contain any source code, like `@types/unist`bun: true, // resolve Bun modules https://github.com/import-js/eslint-import-resolver-typescript#bun
// Choose from one of the "project" configs below or omit to use /tsconfig.json or /jsconfig.json by default
// use /path/to/folder/tsconfig.json or /path/to/folder/jsconfig.json
project: 'path/to/folder',// Multiple tsconfigs/jsconfigs (Useful for monorepos, but discouraged in favor of `references` supported)
// use a glob pattern
project: 'packages/*/{ts,js}config.json',// use an array
project: [
'packages/module-a/tsconfig.json',
'packages/module-b/jsconfig.json',
],// use an array of glob patterns
project: [
'packages/*/tsconfig.json',
'other-packages/*/jsconfig.json',
],
},
},
},
},
]
```### `.eslintrc`
Add the following to your `.eslintrc` config:
```jsonc
{
"plugins": ["import"],
"rules": {
// turn on errors for missing imports
"import/no-unresolved": "error",
},
"settings": {
"import/parsers": {
"@typescript-eslint/parser": [".ts", ".tsx"],
},
"import/resolver": {
"typescript": {
"alwaysTryTypes": true, // always try to resolve types under `@types` directory even it doesn't contain any source code, like `@types/unist`"bun": true, // resolve Bun modules https://github.com/import-js/eslint-import-resolver-typescript#bun
// Choose from one of the "project" configs below or omit to use /tsconfig.json or /jsconfig.json by default
// use /path/to/folder/tsconfig.json or /path/to/folder/jsconfig.json
"project": "path/to/folder",// Multiple tsconfigs (Useful for monorepos, but discouraged in favor of `references` supported)
// use a glob pattern
"project": "packages/*/{ts,js}config.json",// use an array
"project": [
"packages/module-a/tsconfig.json",
"packages/module-b/jsconfig.json",
],// use an array of glob patterns
"project": [
"packages/*/tsconfig.json",
"other-packages/*/jsconfig.json",
],
},
},
},
}
```### Other environments
#### Bun
[Bun](https://bun.sh/) provides built-in modules such as `bun:test`, which are not resolved by default.
Enable Bun built-in module resolution by choosing 1 out of these 3 options:
- Set the `bun: true` option, as shown in [Configuration](#configuration) above
- Run ESLint with `bun --bun eslint`
- [Configure `run.bun` in `bunfig.toml`](https://bun.sh/docs/runtime/bunfig#run-bun-auto-alias-node-to-bun)## Options from [`unrs-resolver`][]
### `conditionNames`
Default:
```jsonc
[
"types",
"import",// APF: https://angular.io/guide/angular-package-format
"esm2020",
"es2020",
"es2015","require",
"node",
"node-addons",
"browser",
"default",
]
```### `extensions`
Default:
```jsonc
[
// `.mts`, `.cts`, `.d.mts`, `.d.cts`, `.mjs`, `.cjs` are not included because `.cjs` and `.mjs` must be used explicitly

".tsx",
".d.ts",
".js",
".jsx",
".json",
".node",
]
```### `extensionAlias`
Default:
```jsonc
{
".js": [
".ts",
// `.tsx` can also be compiled as `.js`

".js",
],
".jsx": [".tsx", ".d.ts", ".jsx"],
".cjs": [".cts", ".d.cts", ".cjs"],
".mjs": [".mts", ".d.mts", ".mjs"],
}

"es2020","module",
"jsnext:main","main",
]
```### Other options
You can pass through other options of [`unrs-resolver`][] directly
### Default options
You can reuse `defaultConditionNames`, `defaultExtensions`, `defaultExtensionAlias` and `defaultMainFields` by `require/import` them directly
