Angular - How to fix "ERROR TS2322: Type 'ModuleWithProviders<any>' is not assignable to type 'any[] | Type<any>'"

Question

I'm trying to create a webapp using Angular, but at the time of compilation I get this error which I can't solve:

ERROR in src/app/app.module.ts(22,5): error TS2322: Type 'ModuleWithProviders' is not assignable to type 'any[] | Type'. Type 'ModuleWithProviders' is missing the following properties from type 'Type': apply, call, bind, prototype, and 5 more.

That's my app.module.ts:

import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';
import { RouterModule } from '@angular/router';
import { NgbModule } from '@ng-bootstrap/ng-bootstrap';
import { ToastrModule } from 'ngx-toastr';
import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { ComponentsModule } from './components/components.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { AdminLayoutComponent } from './layouts/admin-layout/admin-layout.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    FormsModule,
    HttpClientModule,
    ComponentsModule,
    RouterModule,
    AppRoutingModule,
    NgbModule,
    ToastrModule.forRoot()
  ],
  imports: [
    AppComponent,
    AdminLayoutComponent
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

The error is reported on the line: ToastrModule.forRoot()

And that's my package.json:

}

Please someone help me.

Answer 1

As i see, you have added Modules under declarations and components under imports, you should add Modules under imports and components under declarations.

Answer 2

1. declarations is save components,pipes or directives.
2. imports is save modules.

@NgModule({
  // right
  imports: [
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    FormsModule,
    HttpClientModule,
    ComponentsModule,
    RouterModule,
    AppRoutingModule,
    NgbModule,
    ToastrModule.forRoot()
  ],
  // right
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    AdminLayoutComponent
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
