Could not find custom rule directory (codelyzer)

[efueger]

Hi @tkqubo! Thanks for the request to bump the plugin -- we updated that on June 19.

I'm working with a user who's running into the "Could not find custom rule directory" when using Codelyzer. There have been a couple of other issues related to this:

• FatalError: Failed to load (Could not find custom rule directory) #47
• Running on codeclimate.com fails with a FatalError #26

Troubleshooting with an oss repo, I'm seeing:

/usr/src/app/node_modules/tslint/lib/configuration.js:57
        throw new error_1.FatalError("Failed to load " + configPath + ": " + error.message, error);
        ^

FatalError: Failed to load /tmp/codeclimate-tslint/322be5549801493ac98a0cf91b90a10adf8628140a83a36d8272795ac3f5be9d.json: Could not find custom rule directory: /code/codelyzer

Do you have any ideas of how to troubleshoot this further? Typically, these dependencies work when packaged with the plugin, and codelyzer already is. 🤔 I'm not as familiar with Codelyzer and how it interacts with TSLint, so I'd love to see if you can help on that side.

Thanks 👍

@tkqubo 👋 Checking to see if you have any ideas on this. Thanks!

@tkqubo - any info I can help with from this side?

Hi @tkqubo -

If you're interested, we can transfer this repository to our codeclimate-community organization, with you as a maintainer, so we can share the maintenance load. Just let us know.

• You can transfer following these steps: https://help.github.com/en/articles/transferring-a-repository

Thanks,
Emily

PS: If you hit any permission errors, you might need to give me admin permissions for this repo and then I'll be able to transfer it. 👌

Aha! So, it turns out all I had to do to fix this was change "rulesDirectory": ["codelyzer"] to "rulesDirectory": ["node_modules/codelyzer"]! I don't know if the version update of this plugin helped as well, perhaps (this other issue had that exact syntax and was not working at the time: #26). But in any case, that worked for me 😄

This works for me:

npm i codelyzer

 "rulesDirectory": [
    "node_modules/codelyzer"
  ],

This works for me:

npm i codelyzer

 "rulesDirectory": [
    "node_modules/codelyzer"
  ],

This worked for me as well! Cheers 🍻
