Traversing with
visit
using a node as the root creates a newNodePath
, which detaches the resulting paths from the rootFile
node. I've seen this lead togetFlowType
crashing later when it tries to grab the source code from the no-longer-reachableFile
node[1]. Traversing from aNodePath
keeps everything correctly linked and has no downsides AFAICT, so here I changedtraverseShallow
(which wrapsvisit
) to only accept paths.[1] I don't have the exact repro case to hand, unfortunately, but this was in the course of working on facebook/react-native-website#1628.
