@angular/forms 404 (Not Found)

[maliq]

SO.
Mac OSX (El Capitan)
Versions.
angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.8
node: 5.9.1
os: darwin x64

Repro steps. Was this an app that wasn't created using the CLI? What change did you
do on your code? etc.

Update to angular cli 1.0.0-beta.8 and follow the upgrade sequence (https://github.com/angular/angular-cli#updating-angular-cli)

Based in guide https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/cookbook/dynamic-form.html disable old form and enable new one. In main.ts add import and load forms like show below:

import { disableDeprecatedForms, provideForms } from '@angular/forms';

if (environment.production) {
  enableProdMode();
}

bootstrap(AppComponent, [.., disableDeprecatedForms(), provideForms()]);

The log given by the failure. Normally this include a stack trace and some
more information.

error output:

Mention any other details that might be useful.

Solution: add '@angular/forms' to "Angular specific barrels." in system-config.ts and fixed.

..
const barrels: string[] = [
  // Angular specific barrels.
  '@angular/core',
  '@angular/common',
  '@angular/compiler',
  '@angular/forms', // added
  '@angular/http',
  '@angular/router',
  '@angular/platform-browser',
  '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic',
..

Did you try to add @angular/forms's barrel to system-config.ts? That's work for me.

[aferlazzo]

No, I did not. I was trying to use angular-cli, and that seems to have been a mistake because angular-cli is controlling the system-config.js file, I'll go back and create a webpack project and try it from there. Thanks for your help.

[maliq]

Is a bug when added @angular/forms to packages, but you can modify system-config.js like shows https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/wiki/3rd-party-libs when you have to use another library or in this case when they omite that new library.
Regards!.

@maliq I'm fairly new to Angular2 and the CLI, so correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't adding @angular/forms to the package.json (#1200 ) file fix this issue for new installs of the CLI? I ask, cause I installed it today for the first time and I ran into this issue. Also, i managed to fix it by adding it to the barrels manually in the system-config.ts file like so:

const barrels: string[] = [
  // Angular specific barrels.
  '@angular/core',
  '@angular/common',
  '@angular/compiler',
  '@angular/forms', // Added forms 
  '@angular/http',
  '@angular/router',
  '@angular/platform-browser',
  '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic',

  ...
];

Before I did that, I was following the 3rd Party Libs installation guide. In the guide it says to add the library to the vendorNpmFiles array in the angular-cli-builds.js file, but inside the array there's this '@angular/**/*.+(js|js.map)'. My question now is, wouldn't that take care of adding Angular2 libraries to the @angular folder?

[maliq]

Angular Cli has many parts to add a new js library.

First one, package.json just manages npm dependencies. That downloads given dependencies and put into node_modules directory.

Second one angular-cli-builds.js allows maps any js dependency in node_modules directory to a public web directory vendor, that gives visibility from web app, otherwise you can't invoke i.e.:<script src="/vendor/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> if you have jquery into your package.json.

Until now you can work fine with any 3rd Party Libs that don't use any angular component, but if your js library has an angular component/directive/service/wherever that invoke into your angular app you also have to map using system-config.ts otherwise that don't have visibility into angular scope.

Now your question: declaration into angular-cli-builds.js just give web app visibility (you can insert in html code) but not angular scope that gives using barrels in system-config.ts. This issue happened when you import from form package:
import { disableDeprecatedForms, provideForms } from '@angular/forms';

I hope you can understand with that explanation :)

Fixed in #1200, thanks @maliq!

[gauree]

I am having a similar issue of 404 but i cannot see any constant named barrels in system.config.js file

[maliq]

Can you post your system.config.js file and your AngularCLI version please.

[gauree]

I am not using angular cli actually ,sorry I should have mentioned that at
first to save your time .
