Angular gives @angular/core 404 not found error when using directives

Question

When I add in this line of code into my @Component:

directives: [HeroDetailComponent]

The code breaks, and gives me this error:

GET http://localhost:3000/@angular/core 404 (Not Found)

These are the scripts in my index.html:

<script src="node_modules/es6-shim/es6-shim.min.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/systemjs/dist/system-polyfills.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/angular2/es6/dev/src/testing/shims_for_IE.js"></script>   

<script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/angular2-polyfills.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/systemjs/dist/system.src.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/rxjs/bundles/Rx.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/angular2/bundles/angular2.dev.js"></script>

If I'm missing out any information for diagnosing this issue, please tell me and I'll include it here.

If you want to use the RC version of Angular2, you need to configure SystemJS this way:

var packages = {
  'app': { main: 'main.js',  defaultExtension: 'js' },
  'rxjs': { defaultExtension: 'js' },
  'angular2-in-memory-web-api': { defaultExtension: 'js' },
};

var packageNames = [
  '@angular/common',
  '@angular/compiler',
  '@angular/core', // <--------
  '@angular/http',
  '@angular/platform-browser',
  '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic',
  '@angular/router',
  '@angular/router-deprecated',
  '@angular/testing',
  '@angular/upgrade',
];

packageNames.forEach(function(pkgName) {
  packages[pkgName] = { main: 'index.js', defaultExtension: 'js' };
});

var config = {
  map: map,
  packages: packages
}

System.config(config);

If you want to use beta versions, after having included the node_modules/angular2/bundles/angular2.dev.js file in a script element, import this package instead:

import {Component, Directive, ...} from 'angular2/core';

Answer 2

I had the same error when I tried to follow the Angular 2 tutorial at https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/tutorial/toh-pt3.html.

But I find out the problem is that I had a typo in app.component.ts, the first line should be:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

But I wrote a capital letter of 'core':

import { Component } from '@angular/Core'

So my advice is to make sure you write the right name of the resource before try to revise SystemJS.

change this

import { InMemoryBackendService, SEED_DATA } from 'angular2-in-memory-web-api'; 

to ->>

import { InMemoryBackendService, SEED_DATA } from 'angular2-in-memory-web-api/in-memory-backend.service';

in your main.ts
