Storybook: Can not resolve modules with absolute path in v4.0.0

[SarantopoulosKon]

Describe the bug
I upgraded storybook from version 4.0.0-alpha.25 to v.4.0.0 but i get errors like Module not found: Error: Can't resolve ... for all the modules that i have imported with absolute paths. In the migration guide i don't see any changes regarding absolute paths, am i missing something?

Screenshots

System:

• OS: Windows10
• Node: 10.7.0
• Framework: react
• Addons: actions, viewport, links, knobs
• Version: 4.0.0

Additional context
I use create-react-app v.2

Do you have any custom webpack.config,js ?

[SarantopoulosKon]

@igor-dv no, just plain create-react-app v2 (not ejected) and i have a .env file in the root folder with NODE_PATH=src for absolute imports.

[igor-dv]

I think it's related to NODE_PATH, and not to the absolute imports.
We have an open issue for this already - #4496, let's continue the discussion there.

Anyway, you can workaround absolut imports by adding the custom webpack.confing.js:

//.storybook/webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  resolve: {
    modules: ['path to src dir'],
  }
}

Ok,

Btw running storybook with cross-env NODE_PATH=src/ start-storybook -p 9009 -s public it works, but i'd prefer not to have an extra dependency just for this.

Thank you for your time @igor-dv !
