I have encountered difficulties in building my Angular 7 application after upgrading from v6.
When I use ng build, everything runs smoothly. However, when I try either ng serve --aot, ng build --aot, or ng build --prod (which also includes aot), an error occurs as shown below.
The TypeScript compiler is unable to locate my custom .d.ts files stored in src/app/types/.
I attempted to resolve this by adding the file paths to the include property within the tsconfig.app.json file, but it didn't work.
It's worth noting that I faced the same issue with Angular v6.
ERROR in ./src/app/types/data.d.ts
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/@ngtools/webpack/src/index.js):
Error: /xxx/src/app/types/data.d.ts is missing from the TypeScript compilation. Please make sure it is in your tsconfig via the 'files' or 'include' property.

This is the content of the tsconfig.json file :
{

"outDir": "./dist/out-tsc",
"sourceMap": true,
"declaration": false,

"target": "es5",
"typeRoots": [
"node_modules/@types"
],
"lib": [
"es2017",
"dom"
]
}
}
This is the content of the tsconfig.app.json file :
{
"extends": "../tsconfig.json",
"compilerOptions": {
"outDir": "../out-tsc/app",
"types": ["node"]
},
"exclude": [
"src/test.ts",
"**/*.spec.ts"
]
}
I would greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide in resolving this issue. Thank you.
