 Options set an "allow/disallow" value by default, and provide an array of rules. Each matching rule will override the default value and the value returned by previous matching rules. So, the final result of the options, once processed for each case, will be "allow" or "disallow", and this value will be applied by the plugin rule in the correspondant way, making it to produce an eslint error or not.

+### Error messages
+
+This rule provides information about the parent element of the imported one in case it is private, e.g. `Dependency is private of element of type 'modules' with elementName 'module-b'`
+
+You can also configure a custom error message for changing this default behaviour, or even custom error messages only for a specific rule option. Read ["error messages"](../../README.md#error-messages) in the main docs for further info about how to configure messages.
