IntelliJ and WebStorm treating npm linked local module as an indirect dependency, and not using it in it's suggestions

I have a local node module I am trying to reuse in my other modules.

I use npm link to add the module as a dependency to other modules.

Everything works fine, however IntelliJ Treats this as an indirect dependency even if I add the dependency to the pom. Because of this none of the autocompletions for the dependency work.

Pom1:

{
  "name": "test-module",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "\"Module functionality testing project\"",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "\"No Tests done\""
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC"
}

pom2:

{
  "name": "test-module-2",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "\"Module functionality testing project\"",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "node index.js",
    "test": "\"No Tests done\""
  },
  "author": "",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "test-module": "^1.0.0"
  }
}

Anyone know why this is and how to fix it?

The issue is tracked at WEB-49242, please follow it for updates. As a workaround, please try including node_modules\test-module folder in index by selecting Mark directory as/Cancel exclusion from its right-click menu
