[BUG] Importing using CommonJS doesn’t work

[martinbean]

Expected Behavior

After installing Chart.js via NPM (npm install chart.js --save-dev), to then be able to include it in scripts like this as per the documentation:

var Chart = require('src/chart.js');

Current Behavior

After installing with NPM and adding var Chart = require('src/chart.js'); in my script, I get the following error:

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'src/chart.js' in '/path/to/my/project/resources/assets/js/components'

Possible Solution

Not sure, as "main": "src/chart.js" is in package.json

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. Run npm install chart.js --save-dev.
2. Add var Chart = require('src/chart.js'); to a script as per documentation.

Environment

• Chart.js version: ^2.4.0
• Browser name and version: N/A
• Link to your project: N/A

I think its suppose to be var Chart = require('chart.js');

can you give that a try @martinbean and see if that works for you ?
