Hello @wbhob, I just did pull to try your branch and returns

ERROR in src/app/app.module.ts(21,30): error TS2307: Cannot find module 'ng-intercom'.

any help to integrate would be nice.

1) clone this repo 1a) checkout into the wilson-74 branch 2) run npm run build:dist 3) from your project directory, run npm install <dir>, where dir is the exact location of the dist folder of the repo. So, if your current working directory is ~/myApp, and ng-intercom is in ~/ng-intercom, run npm install ../ng-intercom/dist and that will resolve the package correctly. 4) run your app/run an AoT build and see if the error persists

Thanks for your help with testing!

Hey hey, it's me again :)

here's the result:

WARNING in ../ng-intercom/node_modules/@angular/core/fesm5/core.js 15201:15-36 Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

WARNING in ../ng-intercom/node_modules/@angular/core/fesm5/core.js 15213:15-102 Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

I followed the procedure, built ng-intercom, then installed in my project and when I run it, that's console result, and chrome says aditional info:

ERROR Error: StaticInjectorError(AppModule)[Intercom -> InjectionToken Platform ID]: StaticInjectorError(Platform: core)[Intercom -> InjectionToken Platform ID]: NullInjectorError: No provider for InjectionToken Platform ID! at NullInjector.push../node_modules/@angular/core/fesm5/core.js.NullInjector.get

Thanks for the help.

@vdzundza you need to npm install, and/or npm install tslib

@danielnswz are you importing browser module or something? You have to start your app from a platform

Hi,

I managed to build this PR. Additionally, I followed your provided steps and was able to install directly into my project. Non-AoT builds and ng serve were both successful. However, I'm still encountering the issue outlined in #74.

I did browse source and try a few things that were mentioned from similar issues on other projects to no avail. Any direction I could look into in particular to assist you in diagnosing/fixing this?

[wbhob]

@LiamEntrostat Honestly, I don't know what this problem is and I haven't been able to resolve it.

If you find it, and manage to get it to work, I'd be thrilled to merge your PR. Thanks for your help!
