AngularJS component won't instantiate, "'module' is not a function" - angularjs

Question

I've been asked to do a project in Angular 1, and I've been having a nightmare of a time just trying to get the page to load the app code from bundle.js. I've currently got an error along the lines of
[$injector:modulerr] Failed to instantiate module app due to:
Error: [$injector:modulerr] Failed to instantiate module {"_invokeQueue":
[],"_configBlocks":[],"_runBlocks":[],"name":"approveComponent"} due to:
Error: [ng:areq] Argument 'module' is not a function, got Object
but the only approveComponent I've got is essentially a blank placeholder -
import angular from 'angular';
const approve = angular.module('approveComponent', []);
export default approve;
What can I do to get this actually running?
I'm using Webpack 4 to bundle everything. (NO errors from webpack.)

I have seen this error earlier.You need to pass module name not module in the dependency
ngModule = angular.module('webpack', [
require('./webpack/photocrop/client')//this is a object
])
You can simply require the file and just inject by name Like this
var firstModule = require('./webpack/myapp/client')
ngModule = angular.module('webpack', [
'firstModule'//this is should work
])
firstModule(ngModule)
