Running yarn scripts in WebStorm with non-system node binary

I am trying to use WebStorm for a new project and use yarn instead of npm. However, after building the project, I cannot get the scripts to work through the yarn. My start script has the following launch configuration in WebStorm.

package.json: ~/dev/starting_sandbox/package.json
Command: run
Scripts: start
Node Interpreter: ~/.nvm/versions/node/v7.8.0/bin/node
Npm package: ~/.nvm/versions/node/v7.8.0/lib/node_modules/yarn

      

        
        
        
      

    

When this is done, I get an error:

/Users/byronsm/.nvm/versions/node/v7.8.0/bin/node /Users/byronsm/.nvm/versions/node/v7.8.0/lib/node_modules/yarn/bin/yarn.js run start
yarn run v0.21.3
$ react-scripts start

I was able to solve this issue in webpack when running scripts via npm using the option --scripts-prepend-node-path

. However, it doesn't look like yarn.

The problem with the node instance seems to be that the yarn is triggered when scripts are executed, instead of pulling from the same node binary that is used to execute the yarn itself, it uses what it finds in the $ PATH, which does not change ...

Is there a similar command you can use for yarn?
