Custom Visual and Leaflet

I'm trying to use leaflet in a custom visual. I setup my enviroment but the L value generates an error that says 'L' refers to a UMD Global, but the current file is a module. Consider adding an import instead. I have attempted every why I know how to import the 'L' value. Has anyone used Leaflet with Power BI and have a solution.

Nevermind. I was trying all day uesturday and nothing. Wiped everything and started again. If anyone else is having this issue. After you install the Power BI Custom Visual add:

 

import * as L from 'leaflet';
 
to your imports. Also remember to add:
 
@import (less) "./../node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.css";
 
to your visual.less file or you will be missing tiles.
