title: React Native: Import modules outside of project directory
body: <p>I have built a web app using React and Flux. Now I am trying to build a mobile app for the same in React Native. Since except for the view components everything is going to be almost the same, I have placed the RN app source code inside the main repo and plan to use the modules from the parent repo.</p>
  
  <p>My directory structure is something like this - </p>
  
  <pre><code>main_app
   |-- src
       |-- app 
       |    |-- some_module_1.js
       |    |-- some_module_2.js
       +-- rn_app
            |-- app
            |    |-- some_rn_module.js
            |   
            |-- index.ios.js
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now in my <code>some_rn_module.js</code>, I'm trying to import <code>some_module_1</code> - </p>
  
  <pre><code>import SomeModule1 from '../../../app/some_module_1';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This throws an <code>Unable to resolve module</code> exception. Is this a problem with the RN packager?</p>
