stylePreprocessorOptions angular 8

Question

I am following this to add importable scss files through stylePreprocessorOptions in Angular 8 but I keep getting the error that it is not being found. Any input is apreciated, this neat trick is very useful!

below is my angular.json

          }

      }
    }},

}

This is the error that I am getting:

ERROR in ./src/app/content-component/gallery/gallery.component.scss Module build failed (from ./node_modules/sass-loader/lib/loader.js):

@import "grid"; ^ Can't find stylesheet to import. ╷ 1 │ @import "grid"; │ ^^^^^^ ╵ stdin 1:9 root stylesheet in /Users/konstantinurban/Desktop/thebearcottages/src/app/content-component/gallery/gallery.component.scss (line 1, column 9)

It started working out of the blue, can't tell what changed! — felixo, Jul 23 '19 at 12:44
any idea what changes did you make, if any or any dependencies upgrades? — Rushi patel, Nov 02 '19 at 15:42

I found same bug when started new app with Angular 8. It says "Can't find stylesheet to import." even for properly declared imports. After small investigation i found that it is related to sass-loader bug https://github.com/webpack-contrib/sass-loader/issues/704 I hope it will be fixed soon, but meanwhile there is a workaround:

For existing _mixins.scss in your stylePreprocessorOptions / includePaths, use filename including first underscore

@import '_mixins';

instead of more pretty, but currently buggy

@import 'mixins';

Please checkout your paths once again. In my case the problem was solved by including src like this:

"stylePreprocessorOptions": {
  "includePaths": [
    "src/assets/styles",
  ]

Be aware that if you use scss when you import as prefix you need specify type. @import "colors.scss";

Too many people are having this issue.

Seems that we need to add :

"stylePreprocessorOptions": {
          "includePaths": [

            "// here paths to include"
            "assets/styles",
          ]

It seems to solve some issues, but still doesn't resolved me compass imports.
