A tag already exists with the provided branch name. Many Git commands accept both tag and branch names, so creating this branch may cause unexpected behavior. Are you sure you want to create this branch?

# import/no-absolute-path
🔧 This rule is automatically fixable by the [`--fix` CLI option](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/user-guide/command-line-interface#--fix).
<!-- end auto-generated rule header -->
Node.js allows the import of modules using an absolute path such as `/home/xyz/file.js`. That is a bad practice as it ties the code using it to your computer, and therefore makes it unusable in packages distributed on `npm` for instance.
This rule forbids the import of modules using absolute paths.
## Rule Details
### Fail
```js
import f from '/foo';
import f from '/some/path';
var f = require('/foo');
var f = require('/some/path');
```
### Pass
```js
import _ from 'lodash';
import foo from 'foo';
import foo from './foo';
var _ = require('lodash');
var foo = require('foo');
var foo = require('./foo');
```
### Options
By default, only ES6 imports and CommonJS `require` calls will have this rule enforced.
You may provide an options object providing true/false for any of
- `esmodule`: defaults to `true`
- `commonjs`: defaults to `true`
- `amd`: defaults to `false`
If `{ amd: true }` is provided, dependency paths for AMD-style `define` and `require`
calls will be resolved:
```js
/*eslint import/no-absolute-path: [2, { commonjs: false, amd: true }]*/
define(['/foo'], function (foo) { /*...*/ }) // reported
require(['/foo'], function (foo) { /*...*/ }) // reported
const foo = require('/foo') // ignored because of explicit `commonjs: false`
```
