I followed How can I use JointJS with an application built with Angular CLI? to install JointJS on Angular. Anyway I have this problem when I start the project: 

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve './node_modules/jointjs/dist/joint.js'

I tried to change this import 

const joint = require('./node_modules/jointjs/dist/joint.js');

with this: import * as joint from 'jointjs/dist/joint';

In this way I have no problem when I start the project but I cannot use this type of method let m1 = new joint.shapes.devs.Modelbecause I have this error:

TS2339:Property 'devs' does not exist on type 'typeof shapes'

With methods like this: let rect2 = new joint.shapes.basic.Rect or this let link = new joint.dia.Link I have no problems. I think that is an import problem.

This is my angular-cli.json:

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/@angular/cli/lib/config/schema.json",
  "project": {
    "version": "1.0.0-beta.32.3",

  • did you install the joint js typings? – Astronaut May 02 '17 at 12:56
  • Yes, partially I solved this problem, I installed jointjs writing it in the dependencies of the package.json and then doing npm install (not using directly npm install jointjs)...Now I see the graph but I have this error : `TypeError: Backbone is undefined __webpack_require__ __webpack_require__ webpackJsonpCallback ` – dstyle May 02 '17 at 13:33
  • looks like you need the typings for all the rest of the dependencies then – Astronaut May 02 '17 at 14:11
  • I installed joints, jointjs types, lodash and backbone...I see the example that I wrote but there is this error. Could be an import problem? – dstyle May 02 '17 at 14:18
  • I added new informations about my package.json and angular-cli.json, I don't know if they could be useful – dstyle May 03 '17 at 11:00
  • No idea? I'm trying everything but nothing... – dstyle May 05 '17 at 13:44

I believe that you need to install backbone and lodash into your "dependencies", as joint.js require them.

They are not only needed for development ("dev-dependencies"). This is why it's crashing
