AoT compilation fails

[Rob-Post]

When running AoT compilation ( node_modules/.bin/ngc -p tsconfig-aot.json ) it fails with the following error:

Unexpected value 'VirtualScrollModule in /node_modules/angular2-virtual-scroll/dist/virtual-scroll.d.ts' imported by the module 'AppModule in /app/app.module.ts'

tsconfig-aot.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "es2015",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "target": "es5",
    "noImplicitAny": false,

app.module.ts (excerpt)

import { VirtualScrollModule } from 'angular2-virtual-scroll';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
	VirtualScrollModule,
  ],
  declarations: [

  ],
  bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})

Seems like AOT does not like the distributed .js file, but requires the original .ts file.
This seems to work...

// FIXME: quick-hack to fix AOT
import { VirtualScrollModule } from "../../resources/angular2-virtual-scroll/src/virtual-scroll"

Notice that if you provide the metadata.json files alongside the .js files (meaning you need to AOT compile this library in advance) the .ts files are no longer needed.

Fixed with v0.1.0. Now this library is AoT enabled.
