Angular Build Can't Find Installed Font-Awesome Node_module

Whenever I build my project using ng build --prod I receive the following error: ERROR in ./src/styles.scss Module build failed: ModuleBuildError: Module build failed: Erro

Solution 1:

I was not sure why the CSS version of the file never worked, but I was able to find the docs on the angular-cli that gave me some hints to how to get it working.

1) Import the SCSS version instead of the CSS version.

@import "~font-awesome/scss/font-awesome.scss";

2) Define the font path as a SCSS variable.

$fa-font-path: "~font-awesome/fonts";

Note that the SCSS var have to be defined before the @import statement.

Weird thing was that thing error randomly happened. Everything was working fine for one developer, but when pulling the repo to a second computer this issue was introduced.

Solution 2:

that works for me (this line is in my main app.css)

@import "node_modules/font-awesome/scss/font-awesome";

Solution 3:

You need to add that inside your .angular-cli.json file add styles under apps like so:
