Cannot resolve '@' as nuxt does in regular nuxt project

[payalord]

Starting from file api/index.js, where express server begins and nuxt serverMiddleware setup, all import paths with '@' cannot find that path/files to import. Here are the error in console:

ERROR  Cannot find module '@/api/routes/users'

What I need is for '@' to point to project root dir so i can include my custom js files from there, from any file that will be used in this server middleware including itself. My code of api/index.js:

import express from 'express'
import users from '@/api/routes/users'

const app = express()

// Import API Routes
app.use(users)

// Export the server middleware
module.exports = {
  path: '/api',
  handler: app
}

you need either tsconfig or webpack config for resolving @ alias to another path
