Iam using dropzone for uploading image into a webApi from angular 4 application on button click event. mydrpzone.processQueue() is not working . On upload button click I got this error this.drpzone.processQueue is not a function.

export class AppComponent {

UsreName: string = "Midhun";
@ViewChild('drpzone') drpzone: DropzoneConfigInterface;



myFiles: string[] = [];
sMsg: string = '';

getFileDetails(e: any) {

    //console.log (e.target.files);
    for (var i = 0; i < e.target.files.length; i++) {
        this.myFiles.push(e.target.files[i]);
    }


}

onSending(data: any): void {
    // data [ File , xhr, formData]
    const file = data[0];
    const formData = data[2];
    formData.append('Name', "Midhun");
    console.log("enetered");
}

    clickable: true,
    acceptedFiles: 'image/*',
    createImageThumbnails: true,
    autoProcessQueue: false,
    addRemoveLinks: true,

};

constructor() { }


}

app.component.html

<div class="text-center well">
            <dropzone [config]="config" #drpzone
                      [message]="'Click or drag images here to upload'"
                      (error)="onError($event)"
                      (sending)="onSending($event)"
                      (sendingmultiple)="onSendingmultiple($event)"
                      (success)="onSuccess($event)">
            </dropzone>
        </div>
        <br />
        <button (click)="uploadFiles()">Upload</button>

Just googled it, and that's what I found: The directive itself is not the Dropzone instance, so for 4.x this.dropzone.dropzone.processQueue() or for 5.x this.dropzone.dropzone().processQueue().

Took here: https://github.com/zefoy/ngx-dropzone-wrapper/issues/60

By the way, I'm not sure, but this seems incorrect @ViewChild('drpzone') drpzone: DropzoneConfigInterface;

shouldn't it be @ViewChild('drpzone') drpzone: DropzoneDirective; ?
