angular. How to import css from node_modules

Question

I'm using angular 5. Im my module I'm using leaflet 1.2.0.

In leaflet.css I have trouble with images, for example, some css lines:

.leaflet-retina .leaflet-control-layers-toggle {
  background-image: url(/assets/images/leaflet/layers-2x.png);
  background-size: 26px 26px;
}

/* Default icon URLs */
.leaflet-default-icon-path {
  background-image: url(/assets/images/leaflet/marker-icon.png);
}

So, I need to access leaflet.css to its relative route, what I tried:

@Component({
  selector: 'myComponent',
  template:`<div id="myId" class="myClass"></div>`,
   styleUrls: ['./myComponent.component.scss','/../../../../node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.css'],
})

The folder structure:

--project_folder
  --node_modules
     --leaflet
         --dist
           --leaflet.css
  --src
    --app
      --myComponentParent
        --myComponent
          --myComponent.component.ts
          --myComponent.component.scss
          --myComponent.component.html

Can I refer to folder out of src? How can I do it?

If you are using Angular CLI, you will need to add the Leaflet CSS file to the styles array contained in . angular-cli.json and remove css import from other places

"styles": [
         "styles.css",
        "../node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.css",
]

No need to add like this. in your angular-cli.json file add style tag with the script path

"styles": [
        "../node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.css",
]

remove the script from your component

styleUrls: ['./myComponent.component.scss'],
