I am making a discord bot and I was trying the path aliases feature on typescript. but I somehow keep getting this error when I am using it. I am using NodeJs and using
Here is the error message
Error: Cannot find module '@/models/UserSchema'

and here is the code when I am trying to use the path. It appears to be correct with no error on vscode but when I run the app its giving the cannot find module error
import Test from '@/models/TestSchema'
import User from '@/models/UserSchema'

CodePudding user response:
Looks like there's an issue with mapping paths
using ts-node
addressed on the official repo. They also provide a solution is to use tsconfig-paths
to map so do the following steps:
- Install
tsconfig-paths
:
npm i -D tsconfig-paths
- Add following config into the
tsconfig.json
:
{
"ts-node": {
"require": ["tsconfig-paths/register"]
}
}
// Or you can use it in your dev CLI without having to add above config like:
// `"dev": "ts-node -r tsconfig-paths/register path/to/index.ts",`
