Repro steps.

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

git clone git@github.com:alxhub/ng2-library.git
cd ng2-library/
npm install
npm run build
npm link
cd ..
ng new clitesting
cd clitesting

import the ng2 library on on app.module.ts

import * as test from 'ng2-library';

The log given by the failure.

Normally this include a stack trace and some more information.

Mention any other details that might be useful.

I am assuming this would work with the ng2-library module. My issue is in a different module but this is the easiest to reproduce with steps.

Thanks! We'll be in touch soon.

Did you try npm link ng2-library? This seems like it's a problem with npm, not the CLI.

[trainerbill]

Yeah it still doesnt work. do you have an example that does work to rule out the cli?

[murati]

even if you install dependencies one by one, still huge DI's on them required.
