Repro steps.
It's hard to give repo steps because I haven't discovered exactly what I have to do to reproduce.
However, once the behaviour starts for a project, it continues to behave this way. The only way I have found to fix it is to start a completely new project and copy all my code over.
The issue is well described in #6431.
In brief,
-
I cd to a module directory in my project eg:
app/admin
-
I create a new component, eg
ng g c users
Instead of creating the new component inside app/admin/users
, it creates it inside app, eg app/users
In addition it creates an incorrect import statement in app.module, eg:
import { UsersComponent } from './admin/src/app/users/users.component';
I have seen this happen twice now. I can be working with a project for months and months with it working correctly, then one day it just stops working the way it should. The only way I have been able to fix it is to generate a completely new project and copy all my code over to the new project.
The log given by the failure.
N/A
Desired functionality.
It should create the component inside the admin directory, eg:
app/admin/users
and it should create a well formed import statement in admin.module, eg:
import { UsersComponent } from './users/users.component';
Mention any other details that might be useful.
When I create a brand new project it does what I want it to. I have no idea what I do to provoke this behaviour. I have gone through the following files with a fine tooth comb and can't find anything wrong:
.angular-cli.json
package.json
tsconfig.json
src/tsconfig.app.json
I can't think of anywhere else to look.
