# Deprecation Summary
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Angular strives to balance innovation and stability.
|
|||
|
Sometimes, APIs and features become obsolete and need to be removed or replaced so that Angular can stay current with new best practices, changing dependencies, or changes in the (web) platform itself.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To make these transitions as easy as possible, we deprecate APIs and features for a period of time before removing them. This gives you time to update your apps to the latest APIs and best practices.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This guide contains a summary of all Angular APIs and features that are currently deprecated.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<div class="alert is-helpful">
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Features and APIs that were deprecated in v6 or earlier are candidates for removal in the next major version. For information about Angular's deprecation and removal practices, see [Angular Release Practices](guide/releases#deprecation-practices "Angular Release Practices: Deprecation practices").
|
|||

## Version 8
|

|
|
|||
|
### Removed
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The following APIs and features have been removed starting with version 8.0.0:

Deprecation announced in version 5
|
|||
|
https://blog.angular.io/version-5-0-0-of-angular-now-available-37e414935ced)
|
|||
|
-->
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The entire [@angular/http](http://v7.angular.io/api/http) package has been removed. Use [@angular/common/http](api/common/http) instead.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The new API is a smaller, easier, and more powerful way to make HTTP requests in Angular.
|
|||
|
The new API simplifies the default ergonomics: There is no need to map by invoking the `.json()` method.
|
|||
|
It also supports typed return values and interceptors.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
To update your apps:
|
|||
|
* Replace `HttpModule` with [`HttpClientModule`](api/common/http/HttpClientModule) (from [`@angular/common/http`](api/common/http)) in each of your modules
|
|||
|
* Replace the `Http` service with the [`HttpClient`](api/common/http/HttpClient) service
|
|||
|
* Remove any `map(res => res.json())` calls. They are no longer needed.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For more information about using `@angular/common/http`, see the [HttpClient guide](guide/http "HTTP Client guide").

|
|||
|
## Deprecated features
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This section lists all of the currently-deprecated features, which includes template syntax, configuration options, and any other deprecations not listed in the [Deprecated APIs](#deprecated-apis) section above. It also includes deprecated API usage scenarios or API combinations, to augment the information above.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a component-styles}
|
|||
|
### Component styles
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The shadow-piercing descendant combinator is deprecated and support is being removed from major browsers and tools. As such, in v4 we deprecated support in Angular for all 3 of `/deep/`, `>>>` and `::ng-deep`. Until removal, `::ng-deep` is preferred for broader compatibility with the tools.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For more information, see [/deep/, >>>, and ::ng-deep](guide/component-styles#deprecated-deep--and-ng-deep "Component Styles guide, Deprecated deep and ngdeep")
|
|||
|
in the Component Styles guide.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a template-tag}
|
|||
|
### <template> tag
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The `<template>` tag was deprecated in v4 to avoid colliding with the DOM's element of the same name (such as when using web components). Use `<ng-template>` instead. For more information, see the [AOT Compliation](guide/aot-compiler#enablelegacytemplate) guide.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a ngform}
|
|||
|
### ngForm element selector
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Support for using `ngForm` element selector was deprecated in v6.
|
|||
|
It has been deprecated to be consistent with other core Angular selectors, which are typically written in kebab-case.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Deprecated:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
<ngForm #myForm="ngForm">
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Replacement:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
<ng-form #myForm="ngForm">
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The [NgFormSelectorWarning](api/forms/NgFormSelectorWarning) directive is solely used to display warnings when the deprecated `ngForm` selector is used.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a ngmodel-reactive}
|
|||
|
### ngModel with reactive forms
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Support for using the `ngModel` input property and `ngModelChange` event with reactive form directives was deprecated in version 6.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For more information, see the [usage notes of FormControlDirective](api/forms/FormControlDirective#use-with-ngmodel) and [FormControlName](api/forms/FormControlName#use-with-ngmodel).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a sw-versionedfiles}
|
|||
|
### Service worker versionedFiles
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the service worker configuration file `ngsw-config.json`, `versionedFiles` and `files` have the same behavior. As of v6, `versionedFiles` is deprecated; use `files` instead.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For more information, see [Service Worker Configuration](guide/service-worker-config#assetgroups).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a reflectiveinjector}
|
|||
|
### ReflectiveInjector
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In v5, Angular replaced the `ReflectiveInjector` with the `StaticInjector`. The injector no longer requires the Reflect polyfill, reducing application size for most developers.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Before:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate(providers);
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
Injector.create(providers);
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a i18n-pipes}
|
|||
|
### Pipes using Intl API
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<!--
|
|||
|
From https://blog.angular.io/version-5-0-0-of-angular-now-available-37e414935ced
|
|||
|
-->
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Angular used to rely on the browser to provide number, date, and currency formatting using browser i18n APIs. This practice meant that most apps needed to use a polyfill, users were seeing inconsistent results across browsers, and common formats (such as the currency pipe) didn’t match developer expectations out of the box.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In version 4.3, Angular introduced new number, date, and currency pipes that increase standardization across browsers and eliminate the need for i18n polyfills. These pipes use the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) instead of the JS Intl API to provide extensive locale support.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In version 5.0.0, Angular updated its standard pipes to use the CLRD implementation.
|
|||
|
At that time, Angular also added `DeprecatedI18NPipesModule` and related APIs to provide limited-time access to the old behavior. If you need to use these `Deprecated*` pipes, see [Angular change log](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#i18n-pipes) and the [Date Formats](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12iygt-_cakNP1VO7MV9g4lq9NsxVWG4tSfc98HpHb0k/edit#gid=0 "Date Formats Google sheet") mappings.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you use these `Deprecated*` pipes, you should migrate to the current APIs listed above as soon as possible. These deprecated APIs are candidates for removal in the next major release.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
{@a loadChildren}
|
|||
|
### loadChildren string syntax
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When Angular first introduced lazy routes, there wasn't browser support for dynamically loading additional JavaScript. Angular created our own scheme using the syntax `loadChildren: './lazy/lazy.module#LazyModule'` and built tooling to support it. Now that ECMAScript dynamic import is a standard and is supported in many browsers, it's time for Angular applications to use this new syntax.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In v8, the string syntax for the [`loadChildren`](api/router/LoadChildren) route specification was deprecated, in favor of new syntax that uses an `import` statement.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Before:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
const routes: Routes = [{
|
|||
|
path: 'lazy',
|
|||
|
// The following string syntax for loadChildren is deprecated
|
|||
|
loadChildren: './lazy/lazy.module#LazyModule'
|
|||
|
}];
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
After:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
const routes: Routes = [{
|
|||
|
path: 'lazy',
|
|||
|
// The new import syntax
|
|||
|
loadChildren: () => import('./lazy/lazy.module').then(m => m.LazyModule)
|
|||
|
}];
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<div class="alert is-helpful">
|

|
|

|
|
|||
|
**v8 update**: When you update to version 8, the [`ng update`](cli/update) command performs the transformation automatically.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
**Ivy:** If you are using Ivy, you must update your lazy routes to the new dynamic import syntax. See the [Ivy guide](guide/ivy) for more information.
|
|||
|
|

|
|

|

|
{@a activatedroute-props}
|
|||
|
### ActivatedRoute params and queryParams properties
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
[ActivatedRoute](api/router/ActivatedRoute) contains two [properties](api/router/ActivatedRoute#properties) that are less capable than their replacements and may be deprecated in a future Angular version.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
| Property | Replacement |
|
|||
|
| -------- | ----------- |
|
|||
|
| `params` | `paramMap` |
|
|||
|
| `queryParams` | `queryParamMap` |
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For more information see the [Router guide](guide/router#activated-route).
