Current behavior angular.io describes using Rollup for treeshaking and bundling, but Rollup fails with this message: Error: 'Subject' is not exported by node_modules\rxjs\Subject.js (imported by node_modules\@angular\core\src\facade\async.js).

Supposedly, the solution is to use the namedExports option, but that doesn’t make any difference at all…

My rollup-config.js looks like this:

import rollup from 'rollup';
import nodeResolve from 'rollup-plugin-node-resolve';
import commonjs from 'rollup-plugin-commonjs';
import uglify from 'rollup-plugin-uglify';

export default {
  entry: 'aot/client.aot.js',
  dest: 'dist/build.js', // output a single application bundle
  sourceMap: false,
  format: 'iife',
  plugins: [
    nodeResolve({
      jsnext: true,
      module: true
    }),
    commonjs({
      include: 'node_modules/rxjs/**',
      namedExports: {
        'node_modules/rxjs/Subject.js': [ 'Subject' ]
      }
    }),
    uglify()
  ]
}

Unfortunately this is still an issue in angular 4
