this should work?

{
  "styled-components": "npm:styled-components@5.3.11",
  "moduleX": "./local_modules/moduleX/<entry-file>.<extension>"
}

{
  "styled-components": "npm:styled-components@5.3.11",
  "moduleX": "./local_modules/moduleX/<entry-file>.<extension>"
}

i.e.

{
  "styled-components": "npm:styled-components@5.3.11",
  "foo-module": "./local_modules/foo-module/index.ts"
}

{
  "styled-components": "npm:styled-components@5.3.11",
  "foo-module": "./local_modules/foo-module/index.ts"
}

But it is a built module you see where it says file: <path> this file prefix is necessary the entry is the package.json

i don't think you can get the package.json exports to map out, but if you use the --unstable-sloppy-imports flag, it will find the appropriate index.* file if you just do this:

{
  "foo-module": "./local_modules/foo-module/"
}

{
  "foo-module": "./local_modules/foo-module/"
}

Is there a solution on how we can use a package with a file path? Or do I have to publish it every time I want to test a small change?
