Does not work with package exports

[simonihmig]

Given a package that has exports in its package.json, like this:

{
    "exports": {
    ".": "./dist/index.js",
    "./*": {
      "types": "./dist/*.d.ts",
      "default": "./dist/*.js"
    }
  }
}

When trying to resolve that package, a MODULE_NOT_FOUND error is thrown with "Cannot find module '/path/to/my-package/dist/package.json.js'"

Basically the assumption here that you can always resolve the package.json of a package using node does not hold true anymore in this case. Still I'd like to be able to get the root path of that package, using node module resolution rules. 🤔

See: nodejs/node#42219

There's unfortunately no reliable way to do this at the moment.

Interesting, thank you!

Keeping this open for discoverability.

This seems to also break some functionality with commit hooks in lerna. Not sure if and where it can be fixed but just linked the issues for visibility.
