Understanding r.js, almond, and relative paths - requirejs

Question

I see this answer but AFAICT it's not working for me. Maybe I'm doing something stupid.
I'm using almond and grunt-contrib-requirejs. I've tried a bunch of stuff
Here's my layout
.
├── Gruntfile.js
├── 3rdparty
│ ├── require.js
├── src
│ ├── lib.js
│ └── main.js
└── node_modules
   └── almond
      └── almond.js
And here's my grunt-contrib-requirejs config
requirejs: {
full: {
options: {
baseUrl: "./",
name: "node_modules/almond/almond.js",
include: [ "src/main.js" ],
out: "dist/app.js",
optimize: "none",
},
},
},
main.js looks like this
requirejs(['./lib',], function(lib) {
lib.hello();
});
lib.js looks like this
define([], function() {
return {
hello: function() {
console.log("hello from lib");
},
};
});
If run a page that uses require.js as in
<script src="3rdparty/require.js" data-main="src/main.js"></script>
It runs great. You can see it live it here. Check the console and you'll see it prints hello from lib
So I run grunt. Then I run a page that uses dist/app.js and I get the error
Uncaught Error: undefined missing lib
Here's a live page.
Checking the generated dist/app.js I see lib has been turned into this
define('src/lib',[], function() {
...
});
And main is including it like this
requirejs(['./lib'], function(lib) {
...
});
In other words, the id that r.js generated src/lib doesn't match the id that main is referencing ./lib.
This seems like a very straight forward example for r.js. Like practically "hello world".
What am I doing wrong?
One thing I've tried is changing the baseUrl to ./src
requirejs: {
full: {
options: {
baseUrl: "./src",
name: "node_modules/almond/almond.js",
include: [ "src/main.js" ],
out: "dist/app.js",
optimize: "none",
},
},
},
But now I get
{ [Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example/src/node_modules/almond/almond.js'
at Error (native)
]
originalError:
{ [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example/src/node_modules/almond/almond.js']
errno: -2,
code: 'ENOENT',
syscall: 'open',
path: '/Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example/src/node_modules/almond/almond.js',
fileName: '/Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example/src/node_modules/almond/almond.js' } }
So I try fixing the almond path
requirejs: {
full: {
options: {
baseUrl: "./src",
name: "../node_modules/almond/almond.js",
include: "main",
out: "dist/app.js",
optimize: "none",
},
},
},
But that fails as well
{ [Error: Error: ERROR: module path does not exist: ../node_modules/almond/almond.js for module named: ../node_modules/almond/almond.js. Path is relative to: /Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example
at /Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example/node_modules/requirejs/bin/r.js:30214:35
]
originalError: [Error: ERROR: module path does not exist: ../node_modules/almond/almond.js for module named: ../node_modules/almond/almond.js. Path is relative to: /Users/gregg/temp/grunt-contrib-requirejs-example] }
What am I not getting?
The entire thing is checked into github here if you'd like to work with it.

So here's the answer.
r.js prefers module names not paths
requirejs: {
full: {
options: {
baseUrl: "./src",
paths: {
almond: "../node_modules/almond/almond",
}
name: "almond",
include: [ "main.js" ],
out: "dist/app.js",
optimize: "none",
},
},
},
