How do I get angular 2 cli to copy css and other necessary files to dist folder
Question
I have set up an angular 2 typescript solution and added the material angular 2 npm package.
npm install -g angular-cli
ng new PROJECT_NAME
cd PROJECT_NAME
ng build
Everything is nicely copied from my scaffolded source folder to a dist folder.
Then I add the angular 2 material npm package:
npm install ng2-material --save
But what do I do from here? How do I tell the build command to copy the necessary files from node_modules to the dist folder.
And where is the magic located that makes sure that these files get copied to the dist/vendor folder?

<timer-app>Loading...</timer-app>
<script src="vendor/es6-shim/es6-shim.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/systemjs/dist/system-polyfills.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/angular2/bundles/angular2-polyfills.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/systemjs/dist/system.src.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/rxjs/bundles/Rx.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/angular2/bundles/angular2.dev.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/angular2/bundles/http.dev.js"></script>
<script src="vendor/angular2/bundles/router.dev.js"></script>
...
My package file ends up looking like this: https://gist.github.com/nikolaj-kaplan/e85d5805fd67c3ba3f1f
I hope my confusion comes from a lack of knowledge about npm. And not angular cli. (Because more people will be able to help me). But I haven't got a whole lot of experience in either.
Edit:
I did like this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35900837/564623
module.exports = function (defaults) {
var app = new Angular2App(defaults, {
vendorNpmFiles: [
'node_modules/ng2-material/dist/ng2-material.css'
]
});
return app.toTree();
}
Now my files are copied. Still don't understand how the other files in the dist-folder gets copied. The vendorNpmFiles array was empty.

You don't need node_modules/ prefix, vendorNpmFiles automatically search in node_modules
module.exports = function(defaults) {
return new Angular2App(defaults, {
vendorNpmFiles: [
'ng2-material/dist/ng2-material.css'
]
});
};

With a project created with angular-cli you have the file .angular-cli.json where you should add the css in the "styles" section array, for example, to include the bootstrap css inside node_modules I add the following line:
"styles": [
"styles.css",
"../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css"
],
I hope this help you
