When running the following command in my Angular app:
> ng build --prod --aot --env=stagingI encounter this error message:
ERROR in vendor.0625f773941bc83e6748.bundle.js from UglifyJs
Unexpected token operator «*», expected punc «(» [vendor.0625f773941bc83e6748.bundle.js:69512,51]
The issue seems to be related to a npm package called web-request, which I recently installed.
Within the npm-installed index.js file, there are functions like the one shown below:
function get(uri, options) {
return __awaiter(this, void 0, void 0, function* () { return yield create(uri, Object.assign({}, options, { method: 'GET' })).response; });
}
It appears that Uglify does not support the function* syntax. Since the index.js file is not part of the source code of the npm package, how can I resolve this error?
Here is the content of my tsconfig.json file:
