Angular DataTables: $(...).DataTable is not a function

Question

Angular Version: 6.0.4 ~ Node Version: 10.4.1 ~ NPM Version: 6.1.0

I've seen this question asked many times, but not answered.

After following these instructions to install angular-datables, and trying to use the directive on a table, as in their Zero Configuration example, I keep getting this error:

TypeError: $(...).DataTable is not a function
at angular-datatables.directive.js:42

Included Styles and Scripts

"styles": [
   "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css",
   "node_modules/datatables.net-dt/css/jquery.dataTables.css",
   "src/styles.css"
],
"scripts": [
   "node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js",
   "node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js",
   "node_modules/datatables.net/js/jquery.dataTables.js"
]

Import in app.module.ts

import { DataTablesModule } from 'angular-datatables';

DataTablesModule is added to array of imports.

*.component.html

<h1>View Accounts</h1>
<table class='table table-dark text-center table-striped table-hover rounded' datatable>
  <thead class='thead-dark'>
    <tr>
      <td>#</td>
      <td>Account Name</td>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr *ngFor='let account of db.accounts; let i = index' routerLink='/account/{{account.id}}'>
      <td>{{i+1}}</td>
      <td>{{account.accountHolder}}</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

Answer 1

The error was fixed by doing a refresh of my node modules

rm -rf node_modules/
npm cache clear
npm install

I likely had two versions of jQuery installed, resetting my jQuery instance after datatables had bound to it.
