Vim + ALE + eslintrc. in subdirectory

Question

I use Vim for my react project. I started a project in a new startup, and in the project folder the eslintrc is in a subdirectory like this :

- Lint ---directory1 ----directory2 -----eslintrc.js

So i use ALE for lint checking, but in this project i don't have any error because ALE can't find the eslintrc.. How can i specify to ALE to point to the eslint file in the subdirectory ?

Or there is an other way/plugin to do that. Thanks a lot

According to the doc the name of your config file should be .eslintrc.js (you miss the first dot). https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#configuration-file-formats

If it is still not working, does it work when you move the config file in the root folder ? And what about using eslintConfig field in the package.json I try to add the eslint file in root but nothing change
