Support ESLint module install globally via yarn

[dbaeumer]

Need to add yarn's global module install location to the NODE_PATH when resolving the node module. Something comparable to npm config get prefix

[WoodyWoodsta]

For those wondering, a workaround on Linux is to set the following:

eslint._legacyModuleResolve: true, 
eslint.nodePath: "/your/home/dir/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/"

eslint.nodePath doesn't seem to fix this on Mac

Does anyone know how to determine the global module location for yarn. I tried yarn config get prefix and yarn config listbut nothing contains the global install location.

Under Windows is seems to be ~\AppData\Local\Yarn\config\global\node_modules.

yarn global bin ?

[dbaeumer]

yarn global bin prints the same as npm config get prefix however this is not the location yarn installs global npm modules. I am still a little lost here.

@eduedix thanks for opening the yarn issue.

@dbaeumer I reached out to the FB team and pointed them at this issue. Hoping they'll jump in and help.

[dbaeumer]

@reybango thanks. I retested this today and yarn still doesn't provide me with command to find the global node modules install location.

See https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-eslint/blob/master/README.md#settings-options how to enable this.

Indeed, there is nothing to do with yarn, just add "eslint.packageManager": "yarn" to your vscode settings and it would fix at all :)
