Using tsconfig-paths I am getting a TypeError: query.substr is not a function

[ghost]

I am using a TypeScript-powered Webpack configuration file and in order to use path aliases defined in my tsconfig.json I rely on using tsconfig-paths. Unfortunately TypeScript configuration files for Webpack happen to behave rather erratic and the described method in the documentation does not work at all. Therefore I had to bootstrap my configuration file and add require("tsconfig-paths").register(); as the very first line in my configuration file which fixes issues regarding module resolution.

Unfortunately typings-for-css-modules-loader runs into issues with that bootstrap command enabled and yields the following error:

ERROR in ./Source/Styles.scss (./node_modules/typings-for-css-modules-loader/lib??ref--5-1!./node_modules/sass-loader/lib/loader.js!./Source/Styles.scss)
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/typings-for-css-modules-loader/lib/index.js):

The loader configuration looks as follows:

{
    test: /\.scss$/,
    use: [
        { loader: "style-loader" },
        {
            loader: "typings-for-css-modules-loader",
            options: {
                modules: true,
                namedExport: true,
                camelCase: true,
                localIdentName: "[folder]-[local]-[hash:base64:8]",
                banner: [...constants.copyrightHeaderLines, ...constants.generatedHeaderLines].join("\n"),
            },
        },
        { loader: "sass-loader" },
    ],
}

Is there any way to help you figure out where this error comes from?
