Current behavior

I’m using ngx-chips in my project. But I can’t build it, when i have --aot=true, I have such error during the build:

ERROR in ./src/$$_gendir/node_modules/ngx-chips/ngx-chips.ngfactory.ts

when i add --aot=false - everything is cool

Expected behavior

I can build project with ngx-chips with AOT enabled.
