no need to use module-alias, At calling require, it searches directly from the root folder if there is an '@' at the beginning.

autoAlias.js

const BuiltinModule = require('module');
const path = require('path');

// Guard against poorly mocked module constructors
const Module = module.constructor.length > 1 ? module.constructor : BuiltinModule;
const realResolveFilename = Module._resolveFilename;

Module._resolveFilename = (request, ...args) => {
  if (request[0] !== '@') {
    return realResolveFilename.call(this, request, ...args);
  }

  const _path = path.join(process.cwd(), request.slice(1));
  return realResolveFilename.call(this, _path, ...args);
};
