How to integrate with @ngrx?

In project.config.ts set your SYSTEM_CONFIG to:

  SYSTEM_CONFIG: any = {
    defaultJSExtensions: true,
    packageConfigPaths: [
      `${this.APP_BASE}node_modules/*/package.json`,
      // This is the important line, which hints SystemJS from where to load @ngrx
      `${this.APP_BASE}node_modules/@ngrx/store/package.json`
    ],
    paths: {
      [this.BOOTSTRAP_MODULE]: `${this.APP_BASE}${this.BOOTSTRAP_MODULE}`,
      'angular2/*': `${this.APP_BASE}angular2/*`,
      'rxjs/*': `${this.APP_BASE}rxjs/*`,
      '*': `${this.APP_BASE}node_modules/*`
    },
    packages: {
      angular2: { defaultExtension: false },
      rxjs: { defaultExtension: false }
    }
  };

Update 16-Mar-2017: to get @ngrx/store to load correctly in the current version of the Seed project, the following was sufficient:

    let additionalPackages: ExtendPackages[] = [
      { name: '@ngrx/core', path: 'node_modules/@ngrx/core/bundles/core.min.umd.js' },
      { name: '@ngrx/store', path: 'node_modules/@ngrx/store/bundles/store.min.umd.js' }
    ];

How to define environment specific application configuration?

Create the file src/client/app/config/config.ts:

const BASE_CONFIG = {
  // ...
};
const ENV_CONFIG['prod'] = {
  // ...
};
const ENV_CONFIG['dev'] = {
  // ...
};
export const CONFIG = Object.assign(BASE_CONFIG, ENV_CONFIG['<%= ENV %>']);

Later you can configure a provider on bootstrap or top-level component level which uses the exported CONFIG object.
