Various problems after setting baseUrl

This file is still using src
node_modules/react-scripts/config/paths.js

Error message
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/Jaydar/GitHub/xxxxx/src/react-app-env.d.ts'

Please provide a reproducing project.

@gaearon hi , baseUrl is not completely open?

[jamsch]

@Jaydar I believe baseUrl is configured on CRA to support only "src" and "node_modules" so you'd likely have to rename the "core" folder to "src"

Btw, if you are using vscode you have to restart the ts server after setting baseUrl

I am having similar issues. I was going to post an issue with a reproducible demo, but I can't reproduce is on a fresh CRA.

I noticed there is no documentation for baseUrl. Should we follow the documentation here, or has the CRA team done a custom implementation of jsonconfig? It would suck to lose baseUrl config in release notes.

EDIT: Created #6889

baseUrl is documented here: https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/importing-a-component#absolute-imports. The only property from jsconfig.json we're currently doing anything with is baseUrl. We will likely support additional features in the future like paths.
