consistent-path-prefix

📝 Enforce consistent ./ prefix on local path fields.

💼 This rule is enabled in the ✅ recommended config.

🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the --fix CLI option.

Enforce a consistent ./ prefix in the legacy main, module, browser, types, typings, and bin fields. Absolute paths, URLs, and globs are ignored; other paths with a .. segment are reported. Mandatory prefixes in exports and imports are handled by valid-fields.

Options

prefix

Type: 'always' | 'never'
Default: 'always'

• 'always' — require all local relative paths to start with ./.
• 'never' — disallow the ./ prefix.

{
	'package-json/consistent-path-prefix': ['error', {
		prefix: 'always'
	}]
}

Examples
