Update (15.04.2018) Managed to package it, now its available as

npm install ngx-autosize

https://github.com/chrum/ngx-autosize

Old answer:

I had the same problem today and got it fixed! Please check my fork: https://github.com/chrum/angular2-autosize

Until PR is merged try:

npm install https://github.com/chrum/angular2-autosize.git --save

And then in your code, because it's slightly different, you just import module not directive...

so instead of:

import {Autosize} from 'angular2-autosize';

@NgModule({
  ...
  declarations: [
    Autosize
  ]
  ...
})

you should have:

import {AutosizeModule} from 'angular2-autosize';

@NgModule({
  ...
  imports: [
    AutosizeModule
  ]
  ...
})
