using lodash with angular-cli@webpack?

Question

I recently upgraded my project to angular-cli@webpack in angular RC5.

I installed lodash using :

npm install lodash --save

then In my ts files, I am using it as:

import { Component, OnInit, Type, Input, OnChanges, ViewContainerRef, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';    
declare var _:any;
@Component({
  selector: 'property-editor',
  templateUrl: 'property-editor.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['property-editor.component.css']
})
export class PropertyEditorComponent implements OnInit, OnChanges {
  @Input('component-name') componentName: string;
  @Input('component-model') componentModel: RapidColumn;
  counter: number = 0;

  constructor() { }

  ngOnInit() {
    console.log(this.isArray(this.componentModel));
  } 
//============================Data Type Operations==============================//
    isArray(data:any):boolean{                  
        return _.isArray(data);        
    }
    isObject(data:any){        
        return _.isObject(data);       
    }
    isString(data:any):boolean{        
        return _.isString(data);
    }     
}

But whenever I am trying to import it in my .ts files its giving errors.

any inputs?

@PankajParkar But it it using systemJS, I am having webpack :( — Bhushan Gadekar, Aug 30 '16 at 09:50
@PankajParkar perhaps you only need: import * as _ from 'lodash'; That worked for me and I am using angular-cli with webpack. — klall, Oct 10 '16 at 19:17
@BhushanGadekar webpack isn't module loader, webpack is **module bundler** — Pankaj Parkar, Oct 10 '16 at 20:41
@PankajParkar thanks, I realised that webpack doesnt need any manual setup to refer to node_modules. got it working. :) — Bhushan Gadekar, Oct 10 '16 at 20:59
@BhushanGadekar how did you solve it? I have the same problem — Markus, Nov 26 '16 at 10:49
