Problem

In a workspace, if the vue project folder is not first place in this workspace, webpack aliases doesn't work, so go to definition can not work.

// jsconfig.json
{
  "include": [
    "./src/**/*"
  ],
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules",
    "dist"
  ],
  "compilerOptions": {
    "checkJs": true,
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "@/*": [
        "./client/*"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Reproducible Case

1. clone reproduction repo
2. create a empty folder
3. create a workspace A , add the reproduction, add the empty folder.
4. create a workspace B , add the empty folder, add the reproduction.

Now, open Home.vue from workspace A , select Counter and go to definition works. But in workspace B, go to definition doesn't work.

Maybe jsconfig.json not work?

Looks like we have the same problem.
In a workspace setup, vetur autocompletes from the first project jsconfig.json

My setup:

• app project
  • jsconfig.json
• ui lib
  • jsconfig.json

In ui lib in any *.vue file I get autocomplete like this: (which is a config from app project)

However, this works normally for js files (presumably because because i did not configure vetur for js files so regular vscode path works for js files)

Yep, the js files work well.

BTW, the ESLint extension for VSCode has a eslint.workingDirectories option to solve this similar issue.

This is the same underlying issue as #815. Glad you found a temporary solution.
