How to make vis.js lib to work with Angular2?

Question

I'm trying to use a visjs lib but can't make their getting started example working it goes like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    // DOM element where the Timeline will be attached
    var container = document.getElementById('visualization');

    // Create a DataSet (allows two way data-binding)
    var items = new vis.DataSet([
        {id: 1, content: 'item 1', start: '2013-04-20'},
        {id: 2, content: 'item 2', start: '2013-04-14'},
        {id: 3, content: 'item 3', start: '2013-04-18'},
        {id: 4, content: 'item 4', start: '2013-04-16', end: '2013-04-19'},
        {id: 5, content: 'item 5', start: '2013-04-25'},
        {id: 6, content: 'item 6', start: '2013-04-27'}
    ]);

    // Configuration for the Timeline
    var options = {};

    // Create a Timeline
    var timeline = new vis.Timeline(container, items, options);
</script>

Please find below code that using angular2 with vis and you just need to install vis and import it. In this example i have created a angular2 component for vis library.

import { Component , OnInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core';
import { Network, DataSet, Node, Edge, IdType } from 'vis';
@Component({
  selector: 'network-graph',
  templateUrl: './network-graph.component.html'
})
export class NetworkGraphComponent implements OnInit{
    public nodes: Node;
    public edges: Edge;
    public network : Network;

    public ngOnInit(): void {
          var nodes = new DataSet([
              {id: 1, label: 'Node 1'},
              {id: 2, label: 'Node 2'},
              {id: 3, label: 'Node 3'},
              {id: 4, label: 'Node 4'},
              {id: 5, label: 'Node 5'}
          ]);
            // create an array with edges
            var edges = new DataSet([
              {from: 1, to: 3},
              {from: 1, to: 2},
              {from: 2, to: 4},
              {from: 2, to: 5},
              {from: 3, to: 3}
            ]);
           // create a network
          var container = document.getElementById('mynetwork');
          var data = {
            nodes: nodes,
            edges: edges
          };
          var options = {};
          var network = new Network(container, data, options);
    }
}
