@ alias does not work

[Aareksio]

Environment

nitropack@2.8.1
nitropack-nightly@2.9.0-28406650.c8e8549

Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-bjch62

Describe the bug

Aliases (~, @) are not working in new nitro project. Should not this code enable them? As per PR comment it should work. But it does not seem to.

Additional context

• both @ and ~ do not provide types
• ~ seems to work as alias, @ does not, see logs

Logs

"@/import-me" is imported by "routes/index.ts", but could not be resolved – treating it as an external dependency.

Apparently @//path-to-file.js works.

Sorry, cut one character from stackblitz link. Fixed.

Apart from alias, tsconfig.json must be adjusted. ~/path-to-file.ts works, but is not recognized by typescript.

Hi. Is this issue likely to be closed by this PR?
#2318

Seems to still be present in nightly build:

"@/import-me" is imported by "routes/index.ts", but could not be resolved – treating it as an external dependency.

To be precise:

• 🟩 both @ and ~ provide types now, this has been fixed
• 🟥 ~ seems to work as alias, @ does not, this is still broken

Env: nitropack-nightly@2.10.0-28574393.aabdc9c5

Please always prefer ~ for aliases. @ can be always tricky and conflicting with node package namespaces and an unreliable alias method we kept for historical compatibility reasons.

We might find fixes for working @ but it won't be a permanent fix therefore I think we cannot track this issue.

If there are issues with ~ alias, please feel free to open new issue.
