SCSS file cannot import node_module - reactjs

Question

Tried #import "~react-icons" in an SCSS file.
I get an error: Module build failed:
#import "~react-icons";
^
File to import not found or unreadable: ~react-icons.
This was an npm module that I installed and is on package-json.
My scss code looks like this, the error is at the first line:
#import "~react-icons";
input {
width: 100%;
box-sizing: border-box;
border: 2px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
font-size: 16px;
background-color: white;
padding: 12px 20px 12px 20px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
My webpack configuration looks like this:
const webpack = require('webpack');
const path = require('path');
var HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
var ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin');
let BUILD_DIR = path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist');
let APP_DIR = path.resolve(__dirname, 'src');
let config = {
entry: path.join(APP_DIR, '/index.js'),
output: {
path: BUILD_DIR,
filename: 'bundle.js'
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.jsx?/,
include: APP_DIR,
loaders: ['babel-loader']
},
{
test: /\.scss$/,
use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({
fallback: "style-loader",
use: ['css-loader', 'sass-loader'],
publicPath: "/dist"
})
},
{
test: /\.(ttf|eot|svg|gif|woff(2)?)(\?[a-z0-9]+)?(\?v=
[0-9]\.[0-9]\.[0-9])?$/,
loader: 'file-loader',
}
]
},
resolve: {
extensions: ['.js', '.jsx']
},
devServer: {
contentBase: path.join(__dirname),
// serve index.html in place of 404 responses to allow HTML5
// history
historyApiFallback: true
},
plugins: [
new webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin(),
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
title: 'Project',
minify: {
collapseWhitespace: true
},
hash: true,
template: './index.html'
}),
new ExtractTextPlugin({
filename: 'style.css',
disable: false,
allChunks: true
})
]
};
module.exports = config;

There is not an scss file to import for react-icons. You have to import the icons in the file you want to use:
import FaSearch from 'react-icons/lib/fa/search';
class Search extends React.Component {
render() {
return <FaSearch />
}
}
