Q: How to support vscode resolution?

https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/14907

A jsconfig.json won’t work for me, any idea?

Simple way to do this with a jsconfig.json file:

In your package.json:

{
...
    "_moduleAliases": {
        "@root": ".",
        "@handlers": "./js/handlers",
        "@utils": "./js/utils"
    },
...
}

In jsconfig.json:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "module": "commonjs",
        "target": "es6",
        "baseUrl": "./",
        "paths": {
            "@root/*": ["./*"],
            "@handlers/*": ["./js/handlers/*"],
            "@utils/*": ["./js/utils/*"]
        }
    },
    "exclude": ["node_modules", "**/node_modules/*"]
}

Basically, you can add the baseUrl as your local path, and copy over your aliases into the paths section. For each alias, you have to add /* to the end of the alias, and turn the path you’re aliasing into an array containing that path, then add /* to the end of it as well.

It’s a little extra work every time you want to add an alias, but it works really well, no extra extension required, and I’m using it now.

If there were a way to make this happen automatically (update the paths value when you update the aliases in package.json), that’d be fantastic.

Hey y’all. I built an alternative. https://www.npmjs.com/package/link-module-alias

I’m using it currently in a project alongside module-alias but we may switch fully to link-module-alias if no issues are found.
