Adding Library configs using `forRoot()` and `InjectionToken`

I’m having trouble adding library configs using forRoot() and InjectionToken.

When passing in environment variables via forRoot(config), I can access the variables in the forRoot method, but they are not injecting into services.

I’ve added some comments in my sample code to show where things are breaking.

I originally generated my project using generator-angular2-library@10.1.0

app.module.ts (App that uses Library)

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
    CoreModule.forRoot(environment) // {key: 'foobar'}
  ],
  providers: [...],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule { }

index.ts (Library)

import { NgModule, ModuleWithProviders } from '@angular/core';
import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { Config, LIB_CONFIG } from './config';
import { FooService } from './foo.service';

@NgModule({
  imports: [CommonModule],
  providers: [FooService],
})

export class CoreModule {
  static forRoot(config: Config): ModuleWithProviders {
    console.log(config); // prints:  `{key: 'foobar'}`
    return {
      ngModule: CoreModule,
      providers: [
        {provide: LIB_CONFIG, useValue: config} // If I hard code `useValue: {key: 'FooBar'}`, instead of using `config` it works... weird.
      ],
    };
  }
}

config.ts (Library)

import { InjectionToken } from '@angular/core';

export interface Config {
  key?: string;
}

export const LIB_CONFIG = new InjectionToken<Config>('LIB_CONFIG');

foo.service.ts (Library)

import { Inject, Injectable } from '@angular/core';

import { Config, LIB_CONFIG } from './config';

@Injectable()
export class FooService {
  private key: string;

  constructor(
    @Inject(WEB_CONFIG) private config: Config,
  ) {
    console.log(config); // prints: `undefined`
    this.key = config.key; // can't read property 'key' of undefined
  }

Hey, I’ve got exactly same issue but with one difference: this occurs only with -prod enabled

Hey @brentchow, could you share that “different way” of doing this? I’m facing similar problems. Thanks.
