How to use custom module aliases?

[ttbarnes]

Hiya, I have a monorepo and one of the directories is for cypress tests. In other servies we can simply add _moduleAliases to package.json and we can then import things from a sibling directory, e.g:

// package.json 
{
  "name": "The project",
  "_moduleAliases": {
    "@constants": "../constants"
  }
}

// ui/some/file.js
import CONSTANTS from '@constants`;

I've tried doing the exact same for the package.json in the cypress tests directory, but it can't resolve the module when running the tests.

Is it possibile to use custom module aliases in cypress? Can't see any documentation about this and various other posts/discussions seem to go down a rabbit hole and not up to date.
