Vue cli 3 project alias src to @ or ~/ not working

Question

I have installed the project with vue cli 3 but as the project grows, the import on the components are getting ugly, I end up importing a component like

import Component from '../../../../components/folder/Component.vue'

I just want to alias the src folder and do

import Component from '@components/folder/Component.vue'

I did read that I have to modify the vue.config.js, I have done it but the error is the same

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '@components/Permissions/PermissionsTable'

This is my vue.config.js

  const path = require("path");

  const vueSrc = "./src";

  module.exports = {
    runtimeCompiler: true,
    css: {
      modules: true
    },
    configureWebpack: {
      resolve: {
        alias: {
          "@": path.join(__dirname, vueSrc)
        }
      }
    }
  };

Am I missing something? What else should I do?

Answer 1

For Vue CLI you need to create a file in the root folder of project - jsconfig.json

{
  "include": ["./src/**/*"],
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "src",
    "paths": {
      "@/*": ["./*"]
    }
  },
  "exclude": ["node_modules"]
}

and that's all, helped me with PhpStorm

I was missing extensions: ['.js', '.vue', '.json'], and in the import I have to use '@/components/...'
