Same error on @nrwl/schematics@0.7.0-beta.1 or @nrwl/schematics@0.7.0-beta.3

[xeax]

Issue solved with: npm install --save-dev @angular/cli@1.4.10

May need remove old version of @ngtools/webpack from package.json.

This versions of nrwl/schematics works fine for my case: @nrwl/schematics@0.7.0-beta.1 @nrwl/schematics@0.6.19

You have to use the newer version of the CLI. The older one didn't support custom collections. I'll update the docs to mention it.
