Error: Can't find module "ng2-typeahead'.

[Fresh-Dev-zunairzakir]

Hi All,

An issue regarding adding "ng2-typeahead' module.
I have added "ng2-typeahead' through npm and its properly added in my node_modules folder but

when I do :
import { Typeahead } from 'ng2-typeahead';
Error: Can't find module "ng2-typeahead'.

It's only working when I do:

import { Typeahead } from '../../../node_modules/ng2-typeahead/src/ng2-typeahead';

Can any body guide me why I need to give path from node_modules ?

My coworker has solved the probleam. You need create a Typescript file (.ts) named index.ts inside the \node_modules\ng2-typeahead directory and put this content inside:

export * from './src/ng2-typeahead';

it works to us. I hope it can help you!

Adding a new file in node_modules is not the recommended way. You can also simply import the module like this:
import { Typeahead } from 'ng2-typeahead/src/ng2-typeahead';
