angular2 failing lodash import

Question

I started simple Angular 2 app, all working. But when I add import of lodash and try to use it, I get errors and the app stops working, and can\'t figure out what is the pro

Perhaps you could try this configuration at SystemJS level:

System.config({
  (...)
  map: {
    lodash: 'node_modules/lodash/lodash.js'
  },
  meta: {
    lodash: { format: 'amd' }
  }
}

In a TS file, you can then use it as described below:

import _ from 'lodash';
_.forEach([1,2,3], function(e) {
  console.log(e);
});
