如何在Angular2中使用软件包而不将其发布到npm

Question

I have a package which is published to npm and we are successfully using the package in our angular2 applications by defining the dependency in package.json as

"dependencies": {
   "somesharedmodule": "^1.0.21",
 }

and in our components as import {SharedService} from 'somesharedmodule' .

Now we dont want to make the library public(not interested to make private library too).My question is - i have a module in some folder of my local system.Can i use this module in my application without making the package published in npm. can somebody please guide me the alternatives to use a module in my application without publishing it?

Not clear what exactly you want to do... Bu there are lots of options:

• npm link https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/link

• use github private repo:

  "dependencies": { "ng2-resource": "https://github.com/{nickName}/{repoName}.git" }

• link your IDE to use local folder as node_modules

• manually copy/paste library into project's node_modules
