Add Angular material to component library

Question

I've added angular material to a component library...well I thought I did!

Everything is working in the test harness (app.module,app.component, etc...)

However when I export my library I get the error

Can't resolve '@angular/material'

So apparently I haven't added Angular Material where it needs to be added.

are you trying to use it inside an app when you get that error ? because if that's the case then you just need to install @angular/material inside that app — Gurvinder Guraya
Yes, I've imported my component library into an application and receive the error — Funn_Bobby
yeah so the thing is that @angular-material is a peer dependency of your library module so it doesn't get installed on it's own. Install it inside the app and it should solve your problem — Gurvinder Guraya

Try npm install @angular/material --save and it should work.
