How to specify a location for TypeScript in tasks.json?

If you ask for a TypeScript build task in Visual Studio code, you get something like this:



    {
"type": "typescript",
"tsconfig": "tsconfig.json",
"problemMatcher": [
"$tsc"
],
"group": "build"
}


This causes it run "tsc" on the command line. How can I change the path of "tsc" so that it runs something like "./node_modules/.bin/tsc".

          VS code has number of predefined problem matches included.



          If I understand u correctly, I think what you're looking for is creating your own problem matcher.
