[v5] Cannot find Models' declaration types using monorepo (yarn or pnpm)

[johngerome]

Hi,
Tried adding Adonis into monorepo, pnpm to be exact and I got Cannot find module 'App/Models/User' when running pnpm run build --filter api.

Any idea why ? or What should I do ?

Thanks in advance.

Monorepo Structure (I only have Adonis under apps)

apps
-- api
package.json
pnpm-workspace.yaml
...(.etc)

database/seeders/User.ts

import BaseSeeder from '@ioc:Adonis/Lucid/Seeder'
import User from 'App/Models/User'

export default class extends BaseSeeder {
  public async run() {
    await User.createMany([
      {
        first_name: 'Super',
        last_name: 'Admin',
        email: '[email protected]',
        password: 'admin',
      },
    
    ])
  }
}

Hey @johngerome! 👋🏻

Where is stored your tsconfig.json? You may need to update the paths property on it.

[johngerome]

Hi @RomainLanz,

My tsconfig.json is stored inside the api folder.
The same structure here https://github.com/johngerome/adonisjs-turborepo/tree/main/apps/api using Turborepo
Okay, I'll try updating the paths.

All good now @RomainLanz Thank you.
I've added "baseUrl" under compilerOptions in my tsconfig and It worked!.

{
  ...
 "compilerOptions": {
    ...
    "baseUrl": "./", // <-- add baseUrl
    ...
 }
  ...
}
