[0.0.43] prod build fails, too

[michael-brade]

With the new version 0.0.43, the serve goal is broken, as in #361, but so is the build :(

[15:28:04]  copy finished in 102 ms 
[15:28:12]  Error: Error at .../.tmp/app/main.prod.ts:4:36 
[15:28:12]  Cannot find module './app.module.ngfactory'. 
[15:28:12]  ngc failed 
[15:28:12]  ionic-app-script task: "build" 
[15:28:12]  Error: Error 

I thought ngc would create the ngfactory, but there is none in .tmp.

Do you have the declarations.d.ts file?
Should contain;

declare module '*';

[michael-brade]

Wow, that was quick!! :) Where should that file be?

[alan-agius4]

You can place it directly under src, unless you want to add it in typings folder

The important thing that the path is included in your tsconfig.json if you don't place it in src

[michael-brade]

Yeah, that changes things! Now I get

Error: Metadata emit requires the sourceFiles are passed to WriteFileCallback. Update to TypeScript 
            ^1.9.0-dev

I guess my TypeScript is too new for some feature... I'll try to downgrade to 1.9.

[alan-agius4]

You can downgrade Typescript to 2.0.9 As Angular compiler is not compatible with TS 2.1.X

[michael-brade]

Yay, lovely! Thank you very much, with TypeScript 2.0.x and src/declarations.d.ts it now builds again! :)
I'll close this issue again.
