no-restricted-paths/ How to set except zone for the relative paths. Please can you help me 🙏🙏🙏

Good day! I have a folder structure:

my-project
 |----- src
 │         |----- main
 |                    |----- api.1
 |                              |----- ConstService.js
 |                    |----- api.2
 |                              |------ AccountService.js
 |                    |----- components
 |                             |------ ScreenLogin.js
 |                    |------ service
 |                    |------ workers

And I need to restrict the import from './src/main/api.1' to './src/main', but except one zone './src/main/api.2. It means only possible to import the entities from './src/main/api.1' to './src/main/api.2. Means to get the error if import the entities from './src/main/api.1' to './src/main/components', './src/main/service', and './src/main/workers/'. My rule:

'rules': {
    'import/no-restricted-paths': [
      'error',
      {
        'zones': [
          { 'target': './src/main', 'from': './src/main/api.1', 'except': ['./src/main/api.2'] },
        ],
      }
    ],
  },

The linted file is './src/main/components/ScreenLogin.js:

// IN THIS CASE GET THE ERROR NO-RESTRICTED-PATHS:
import { ConstService } from '../api.1'

The linted file is './src/main/api.2/AccountService.js:

// IN THIS CASE I DON'T NEED GET THE ERROR, BUT I HAVE THE ERROR:
import { AccountService } from '../api.1'

Please can you tell me how can I set the exception for './src/main/api.2' in my case. According the documentation: An optional except may be defined for a zone, allowing exception paths that would otherwise violate the related from. What does it means the exception path only can be relative to from zone. Please can you tell which way I can set in my case 🙏🙏🙏

Assuming your eslint config is in the root, this seems like it should work.

If you'd like to make a PR with a failing test case, I can try to get it working.
