Here are my dist files to reproduce yourself:
The breakdown:
- My dist build, with AOT and Lazy Loaded modules works fine when served with npm packages webpack-dev-server or live-server
- It is only when I copy dist to NGINX html directory and NGINX serves the files that I see Javascript errors in Firefox and Chrome
- I have tried many different webpack configurations.
- I am not importing my Lazy Loaded modules in any Typescript file
- With AOT compilation OFF my app and Lazy Modules serve fine from NGINX
- The TypeError: '' is not a function error is coming from Lazy Loaded Modules being served with NGINX
I am using the official Angular package @ngtools/webpack to add AOT compilation to my Angular 5 app. This article explains how to use @ngtools/webpack to add AOT to a Webpack build project. Very simple, though the article does not mention the needed step to add the Lazy Load module file paths to tsconfig-aot.json. AOT fails with out that step.
All works great localhost with:
npm run serve
My npm run serve command is an in memory compilation and the resources are served localhost from memory using the npm package webpack-dev-server.
When I deploy to my development server, the compilation files are stored on disk and my dev server serves the resources with NGINX.
I have lazy loaded modules that, when loaded are throwing strange errors like this in Firefox:
TypeError: i0.\u0275crt is not a function
And this in Chrome:
ERROR TypeError: i0.ɵcrt is not a function
Going to more detail with the error in Chrome, here is the source maps line of code throwing the error:
I see that the creation of var i0 is this line:
var i0 = __webpack_require__(/*! @angular/core */ "./node_modules/@angular/core/esm5/core.js");
On my dev server, node_modules as at the parent level with my dist folder:
My files on my dev server:
Here is a comparison of the resource files served up from localhost:
And here is the resource files served up from the development server:
