Typescript importing Modules (ngCookies)

Question

I have downloaded a sample of an admin dashboard in Typescript/Angular. It's built up in a very modular way with .component, .routing, .module files.

Now I need to import the cookie module. I was used to import modules by injecting them into a Component constructor from what I've read, but the Angular documentation says that I need to use the

angular.module('app', ['ngCookies']);

directive to import it.

So I tried it but it gives me an error (cannot find 'angular'). I think the problem might be that its meant for javascript.

Can anyone help me with a minimal example of importing cookies in typescript?

Answer 1

These comments set me on the right track. If anyone struggles with this,

use

import { CookieService } from 'ng2-cookies';

then in the Component

@Component{(
    providers: [ CookieService ]
})

now it works with constructor injection
