nx g @nrwl/nest:application changes `/` in project paths to `\\` in workspace.json

See original GitHub issue

Current Behavior

When I generate a new NestJS application in my Nx workspace, \\ is now used where a / was in the workspace.json file for project paths. However this only applies to existing projects, the newly generated project does use /.

Expected Behavior

The application generator does not change or mix / and \\ usage.

Steps to Reproduce

create-nx-workspace --name test-project --preset empty --nx-cloud false
cd test-project
cat workspace.json

{
  "version": 2,
  "projects": {},
  "cli": {
    "defaultCollection": "@nrwl/workspace"
  }
}

npm i -D @nrwl/nest
nx g @nrwl/nest:application api --standaloneConfig

Above command prints out an error but does succeed, see issue #6249, possibly relevant. However this behaviour still occurs even if I omit --standaloneConfig from the second command (step 7) and the error does not happen then.

Hey, I’ve been looking into this recently and have almost pinned it down. I could fix it easily by forcing the workspace path to be normalized, but it’s set on project.root currently. I want to figure out what’s causing that to be pulling in a windows path rather than fixing a symptom.
