modules: missing exports as MODULE_NOT_FOUND #28905
Conversation

Corrected - it seems I've used the words "not valid exports" here in the title and initial paragraph, when I really meant "missing export". |

This is a really important change particularly because it should not be possible to know if a path does not exist, or "exists but exports denies you access to it". I consider this a security property as well as something that if unmerged, would constitute an observable breaking change to add a non-exported file.

It seems I missed this change when reviewing #28759, where previously the package.json
"exports"
would throw aMODULE_NOT_FOUND
error if trying to import something from a package that was a missing export (changed on this line here - https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/28759/files#diff-4a5950be44f56dfca2e7fa3c4e1fc0e4).I think it is quite important for the core resolver to have a unified
MODULE_NOT_FOUND
error instead of splitting this off into different cases, as any tool that uses a resolver typically wants to be able to filter these errors specifically, and having many variations of not found error codes will not help that.Just like the package.json "main" not being found is still a
MODULE_NOT_FOUND
error and not aMAIN_NOT_FOUND
, I think we should ensure missing"exports"
are still aMODULE_NOT_FOUND
error.This implements that approach for both the CJS and ESM resolvers.
