hey folks i'm using the Angular2 CLI and trying to import the chart.js module but every time i run up the server I get a 'cannot find module "chart.js"'

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import Chart from 'chart.js';

@Component({
 selector: 'app-root',
 templateUrl: './app.component.html'
 })

 export class AppComponent {
   title = 'Test';
   let myChart = new Chart({});
};

Try: import 'chart.js/dist/Chart.min.js'; Assuming you did an npm install of chartjs already. – cmonkey yesterday
    
i did npm install it but didn't fix it. I need to import Chart from it's directory – Fernando B yesterday

You may want to try ng2-charts or another Angular2 chart.js library to set this up. It makes it a lot easier to import and use. From the README...

import { ChartsModule } from 'ng2-charts/ng2-charts';

// In your App's module:
imports: [
   ChartsModule
]
