Angular CLI cannot find modules that are clearly in workspace












-1















I got this error when I deleted a component and recreated it in the CLI with the same name and folder structure.



ng g component <mycomponentname>



As soon as I did this, the CLI started throwing errors saying that it can't find modules that are clearly there and were left untouched. These are simple classes and services, not NPM packages or third party libraries.



Is there a way that I can build the project completely clean? Or a way to force a fresh cache or something?

  • @ABOS yes and it is properly referenced in app.module.ts as well

    If you have multiple modules you have to specify which one you're adding the component too. For example:



    Ng g c "componentname" --module app


    if your module is called app
