Error: Unable to resolve module when using shared library

Question

I am building react native mobile app via npx eas build -p android with expo 49. This error is just related to path while building hence I haven't included environment info in detail. App is running fine in simulator othewise. Someone with prior similar experience should be able to figure this out. I am open to provide details if required.

I am able to run app in ios and android simulator by running npx expo start --ios and npx expo start --android just fine. However when I try to build using eas it fails for the error:

Error: Unable to resolve module ./shared-lib/App from /home/expo/workingdir/build/App.js:

None of these files exist:

• shared-lib/App(.native|.android.ts|.native.ts|.ts|.android.tsx|.native.tsx|.tsx|.android.js|.native.js|.js|.android.jsx|.native.jsx|.jsx|.android.json|.native.json|.json|.android.cjs|.native.cjs|.cjs)

• shared-lib/App/index(.native|.android.ts|.native.ts|.ts|.android.tsx|.native.tsx|.tsx|.android.js|.native.js|.js|.android.jsx|.native.jsx|.jsx|.android.json|.native.json|.json|.android.cjs|.native.cjs|.cjs)

1 | import App from './shared-lib/App';

|                  ^

2 | export default App

Error: Unable to resolve module ./shared-lib/App from /home/expo/workingdir/build/App.js:

Now I tell you what I am doing. I have got a shared-lib directory parallel to App.js and index.js in root. I am using shared-lib folder as a git submodule to be used in multiple apps as a common code base. I am including shared-lib/App.js inside root App.js like:

import App from './shared-lib/App';
export default App

I am attaching a folder structure here:

I am including files from shared-lib in all over the project. For example this is in ./LoginScreen.jsx

....
import ForgotPasswordLink from '../shared-lib/ForgotPasswordLink'

....

import {apiConfig, style as __style, fonts as __fontf} from '../shared-lib/config';

How do I make builder to know about the use of shared-lib in my project so that it can build successfully?
