Angular 5: Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '@angular/forms/src/validators'

Question

I am trying to create a custom validator using directive but getting below error.

ERROR in ./src/app/CustomValidators/white-space-validator.directive.ts
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '@angular/forms/src/validators' in 'D:\Angular\Admin\src\app\CustomValidators'
resolve '@angular/forms/src/validators' in 'D:\Angular\Admin\src\app\CustomValidators'
  Parsed request is a module
  using description file: D:\Angular\Admin\package.json (relative path: ./src/app/CustomValidators)
    Field 'browser' doesn't contain a valid alias configuration
  after using description file: D:\Angular\Admin\package.json (relative path: ./src/app/CustomValidators)
    resolve as module.....

Code in directive file:

import { Directive } from '@angular/core';
import { ValidatorFn, Validator } from '@angular/forms/src/directives/validators';
import { AbstractControl, FormControl } from '@angular/forms/src/model';
import { NG_VALIDATORS } from '@angular/forms/src/validators';

@Directive({
  selector: '[whiteSpace][ngModel]',
  providers: [
    { provide: NG_VALIDATORS, useExisting: WhiteSpaceValidatorDirective, multi: true }
  ]
})

export class WhiteSpaceValidatorDirective  {
  validator : ValidatorFn;

  constructor() { 
    this.validator = checkWhiteSpaces();
  }

  validate(c: FormControl){
    return this.validator(c);
  }
}

function checkWhiteSpaces(): ValidatorFn {
  return (c: AbstractControl) => {
    let isValid = c.value.trim().length > 0 ? true : false;
    if (isValid) {
      return null;
    }
    else {
      return {
        whiteSpace: { valid: false }
      }
    }
  }
}

Versions of Package I am using:

Angular CLI: 1.5.5 Node: 8.2.1 OS: win32 x64 Angular: 5.1.2 ... animations, common, compiler, compiler-cli, core, forms ... http,
language-service, platform-browser ... platform-browser-dynamic,

Import just from @angular/forms

import { 
      ValidatorFn,
      Validator, 
      AbstractControl, 
      FormControl, 
      NG_VALIDATORS 
} from '@angular/forms';
