角度测试不包括从node_modules导入

Question

I cannot resolve an external library via node_modules in a test in angular 2. Am I missing something?

I have a service that imports a library from node_modules:

import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';
import Lib from 'lib';
@Injectable()
export class Service { 
  stuff() {
    return Lib.doStuff();
  }
}

When I run the application, Lib is defined and I can use the library.

When I run a test on that class, the Lib is undefined.

describe('tests', () => {
  let service: Service;
  beforeEach(() => service = new Service());
  it('test', () => {
    service.stuff();
  });
});

The test itself works. If I test for a hardcoded return value it works, so the overall setups seems to be fine.

I use a project skeleton created with angular-cli. Some versions:

@angular/cli: 1.0.0
node: 6.10.2
os: linux x64
@angular/common: 4.0.2
@angular/compiler: 4.0.2
@angular/core: 4.0.2
@angular/forms: 4.0.2
@angular/http: 4.0.2
@angular/platform-browser: 4.0.2
@angular/platform-browser-dynamic: 4.0.2
@angular/router: 4.0.2
@angular/cli: 1.0.0
@angular/compiler-cli: 4.0.2

Im quite new to angular, so i have no clue what happens behind the curtains. I would expect that all imports just get resolved.

Isn't that the case?

you can only using import Lib from 'lib' if your lib export default the Lib symbol, if not you need using one of formular such as:

import * as Lib from 'lib'

or

import {Lib} from 'lib'
