This is an angular 2 component that creates a breadcrumb trail. It hooks into the angular2/router, to dynamically build up the crumb trail once a component is routed to.
In the breadcrumbService.ts file, in the getFriendlyNameForRoute method, variable name is created as a string but not assigned. At the end of the method, it is checked against a falsy value.
However, since its type is only string, TypeScript does not allow for it to be undefined in strict mode.
Even if this compiles correctly in normal modes, it does not when in strict mode, and should be fixed.
A simple fix considering the actual usage would just be to make the type string | undefined and everything would work as is.
Here is the actual tsc error message:
node_modules/ng2-breadcrumb/app/components/breadcrumbService.ts(83,16): error TS2454: Variable 'name' is used before being assigned.
