Angular 6 support (build error)

[danail-vasilev]

Hello,
Is the lib supported in Angular 6 because I am observing issues?

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Create app -> ng new my-app (use cli 6.2.6)
2. App setup:
   package.json:
   ...
   "@angular/common": "6.1.10",
   ...
   "@angular/cli": "6.2.6",
   "browserify-zlib": "0.2.0"
   ...
   mycomponent.ts:
   // var zlib = require("browserify-zlib");
   import * as zlib from "browserify-zlib";

zlib.deflate(text, cb);

Actual behavior (issues):

1. Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'stream' in \node_modules\browserify-zlib\lib
2. After installing the stream package -> Uncaught ReferenceError: global is not defined
3. After setting (window as any).global = window; in polyfills.ts -> Cannot read property 'prototype' of undefined
4. Tried setting "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true in tsconfig.json -> same error as above
5. Tried setting "paths": { "browserify-zlib": [ "node_modules/browserify-zlib/lib/index.js", "node_modules/browserify-zlib/lib/binding.js"] }, in tsconfig.json -> same error as above
   p.s. I use pako for the deflation without any issues, however, the above is still valid for this lib.

I don't think this is an issue with this package, but with the build tool you're using not properly providing the stream module.
