Build Script Path Rot
The Problem
Hardcoded paths in build scripts break when directory structure changes:
The Solution
Option 1: Resolve Relative to Manifest
Option 2: Config File
Option 3: Auto-Discover
Red Flags
| Pattern | Risk | |
|---|---|---|
'./src/' hardcoded | Will break on restructure | |
process.cwd() + '/src' | Breaks if script run from different dir | |
Relative paths without path.resolve | Platform-specific issues |
Safe Patterns
Verification
- Move a directory → script still works (reads from config)
- Run script from different working directory → still works
- Paths in config match actual structure
When to Apply
- Any build script with file paths
- After directory restructure
- When script "mysteriously" breaks in CI
