does compile_commands.json have priority over .vimrc ale configurations?

[laoshaw]

when I run ALEInfo it always shows whatever is configured in .vimrc and ignores my compile_commands.json, is there a way to always let compile_commands.json have priority?

even better if ALE detects a Makefile in its parent folders and there is a compile_commands.json and it repects that before it checks .vimrc.
