Due to the fact that the CLI only installs
@angular/material
when runningng add
and expects us to add the entries to thepackage.json
, we cannot use theVERSION
object from@angular/material
because the Material package tries torequire
the CDK (which is not present at this point). This results in a runtime exception that will cause thematerialVersion
to benull
.In order to properly determine the Material version that comes with the
ng add
command, we should gracefully inspect the accordingpackage.json
file of the@angular/material
or@angular/cdk
package.
