Using color picker with Angular 2.1.0 causes problems

[garethlewis]

After including the ColorPickerModule in my AppModule class. Any attempt to use the Color Picker with a webpack compiled app produces the following message in console.

Uncaught Error: Unexpected value 'e' imported by the module 'AppModule'(…)

Not particularly useful I know. Can you give me a rough guide as to when the Color Picker will be moving towards Angular 2.1.0?

The problem does not occur with SystemJS, but that is expected, as SystemJS does not package up the requisite parts from the angular node modules.

Also strangely, when not including the color picker and not uglyfying the code, the app.js chunk is 34kb. When including colorpicker and using Angular 2.1.0, the app.js is 900kb. It appears as if the the entire of the Angular 2.0.0 system that the color picker requires is included in app.js.

It fails with Angular 2.0.0 with error "Uncaught Error: Unexpected value 'e' imported by the module 'AppModule'(…)" while the previous version failed with "Uncaught Error: Unexpected value 't' imported by the module 'AppModule'(…)".
I use webpack to build an app.

For some reason, if I use Angular 2.0.0 and webpack it does work, but from Angular 2.0,1 onwards it fails. I can only guess as to what has changed, but the Angular 2 did introduce AOT, though that could be a red herring in this case.

There is a example with webpack in the project. I've compiled with Angular 2.0.0 and Angular 2.1.0 and it works

Thanks, I have just updated my project to use version 1.3.0 and it now loads the color picker correctly.

In version 2.2.0 , I get this error again.

I'm getting this error too. I'm using the latest version of angular which as of right now is 5.0.2.

I'm assuming this library hasn't been updated for angular 4
