Build failed with type error.

Bug Report

ERROR in [at-loader] node_modules@covalent\core\file\directives\file-drop.directive.ts:84:43
Argument of type 'string[]' is not assignable to parameter of type 'DOMStringList'.
Property 'contains' is missing in type 'string[]'.

Which version of Angular and Material, and which browser and OS does this issue affect?

@covalent/core : 0.10.2
typescript version 2.1.4
webpack version 1.14.0

Did this work in previous versions of Angular / Material?
*Covalent/core worked with previous versions.
*CovalentFileModule was an independent module till covalent 0.9.0 (@covalent/file-upload) . *@covalent/core : 0.10.2 build fails with the error.

How do you have your tsconfig.json configured?

Trying to replicate it, but cant seem to do so.. any additional information you have would be much appreciated.

Here is the tsconfig file content.

{
"compilerOptions": {
"target": "es5",
"module": "commonjs",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"sourceMap": true,
"emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"removeComments": false,
"noImplicitAny": true,
"baseUrl": "./src",
"suppressImplicitAnyIndexErrors": true,
"exclude": [
"node_modules",
"dist"
],
"awesomeTypescriptLoaderOptions": {
"forkChecker": true,
"useWebpackText": true
}
}
}

i might be out of my depth but this is what we have in covalent-quickstart

{
  "compileOnSave": false,
  "compilerOptions": {
    "declaration": false,
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "mapRoot": "./",
    "lib": ["es6", "dom"],
    "module": "es6",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "outDir": "../dist/out-tsc",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "target": "es5",
    "typeRoots": [
      "../node_modules/@types"
    ],
    "types": [
      "jasmine", "hammerjs"
    ]
  }
}

Yeah, please try using the same config as us. Most of the angular/angular@material repos use that same config for lib.

"lib": ["es6", "dom"],

e.g.
https://github.com/jelbourn/material2-app/blob/master/src/tsconfig.json

Ok, manage to replicate it.. its a problem when upgrading to [email protected].
microsoft/TypeScript#12069
angular/angular-cli#3157

We are still on 2.0.10 because there were known issues in 2.1.x. We will start testing on 2.1.4 asap, but for now i would just go back to 2.0.10.
