Angular Material throw error for dependencies

Question

I'm getting this error when I install angular material on my project:

Uncaught TypeError: Object(...) is not a function at bidi.es5.js:87 at Object../node_modules/@angular/cdk/esm5/bidi.es5.js (bidi.es5.js:89) at webpack_require (bootstrap:76) at Object../node_modules/@angular/material/esm5/core.es5.js (http.js:2764) at webpack_require (bootstrap:76) at Object../node_modules/@angular/material/esm5/toolbar.es5.js (core.es5.js:2769) at webpack_require (bootstrap:76) at Object../src/app/content/content.module.ts (content.component.ts:8) at webpack_require (bootstrap:76) at Object../src/app/app.module.ts (app.component.ts:8)

My package.json is the following

  },
  "optionalDependencies": {

  }
}

Seems that I there are some dependencies errors.... But I can't understand which are the libraries involved.... I'm using angular-jwt2 and I think that package is not compatible with @angular/core 6....

If you know what are the problem, I'll thank you if you say me how can I detect in the future dependencies problems.

Thanks a lot, Regards

You're mixing several versions of angular modules. Don't. And material 6 requires angular 6, AFAIK. — JB Nizet

Finally, I found a solution. There's no native tool to update all packages to the lastest version, so it's needed npm-check-updates. Using ncu -u the package.json file will be updated with the lastest version of each package. Once the previous command has finished, use npm install to update the packages.

In my case, I needed yo install rxjs-compat, executing npm install rxjs@6 rxjs-compat@6 --save.
