This was a poorly typed attempt to mimic TypeScript's index signatures,
which we can use instead.
This eliminates a very strange type that we were exposing to users, but
not re-exporting through our public API.
Fixes#4483
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Removes `ChangeDetection`, use a binding for `ChangeDetectorGenConfig` instead
to configure change detection.
- `RenderElementRef.renderBoundElementIndex` was renamed to `RenderElementRef.boundElementIndex`.
- Removes `ViewLoader`, use `XHRImpl` instead.
Closes#3605
BREAKING CHANGE:
- we don't mark an element as bound any more if it only contains text bindings
E.g. <div>{{hello}}</div>
This changes the indices when using `DebugElement.componentViewChildren` / `DebugElement.children`.
- `@Directive.compileChildren` was removed,
`ng-non-bindable` is now builtin and not a directive any more
- angular no more adds the `ng-binding` class to elements with bindings
- directives are now ordered as they are listed in the View.directives regarding change detection.
Previously they had an undefined order.
- the `Renderer` interface has new methods `createProtoView` and `registerComponentTemplate`. See `DomRenderer` for default implementations.
- reprojection with `ng-content` is now all or nothing per `ng-content` element
- angular2 transformer can't be used in tests that modify directive metadata.
Use `angular2/src/transform/inliner_for_test` transformer instead.
The output of the compiler has to be the same
given the same input. Requiring a unique id for
every type already during compilation makes it
hard to parallelize compilation.
Part of #3605Closes#4397
- use `$implicit` variable value correctly
- handle `ng-non-bindable` correctly
- add some more assertions to `TemplateCompiler`
- make `CompiledTemplate` const
- fix default value for `@Directive.moduleId`
- add new compiler to application bindings
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `Compiler.compileInHost` and all methods of `DynamicComponentLoader` don’t take `Binding` any more, only `Type`s. This is in preparation for the new compiler which does not support this.
Part of #3605Closes#4346
- Rename `DirectiveMetadata` into `CompileDirectiveMetadata`, merge
with `NormalizedDirectiveMetadata` and remove `ChangeDetectionMetadata`
- Store change detector factories not as array but
directly at the `CompiledTemplate` or the embedded template
to make instantiation easier later on
- Already analyze variable values and map them
to `Directive.exportAs`
- Keep the directive sort order as specified in the
`@View()` annotation
- Allow to clear the runtime cache in `StyleCompiler`
and `TemplateCompiler`
- Ignore `script` elements to match the semantics of the
current compiler
- Make all components dynamically loadable and remove
the previously introduced property `@Component#dynamicLoadable`
for now until we find a better option to configure this
- Don’t allow to specify bindings in `@View#directives` and `@View#pipes` as this was never supported by the transformer (see below for the breaking change)
BREAKING CHANGE:
- don't support DI bindings in `@View#directives` and `@View@pipes` any more in preparation of integrating the new compiler. Use `@Directive#bindings` to reexport directives under a different token instead.
Part of #3605Closes#4314
The debug tools used to take ApplicationRefs, which are the old return
type of bootstrap. Now bootstrap returns ComponentRef, so the debug
tools should be updated.
Closes#4203
This change adds a syntax for bootstrapping Angular on a page that allows more fine-grained control of the hierarchy created. platform() creates a platform injector (of which there can only be one). From the platform, .application() creates an Angular application including a Zone and all specified application bindings (e.g. for the DOM, HTTP, Compiler, Renderer, etc). At the application level, .bootstrap() will bootstrap the given component into that application.
Closes#3852
By default, pipes are pure. This means that an instance of a pipe will be reused and the pipe will be called only when its arguments change.
BREAKING CHANGE
Before:
@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
After:
@Pipe({name: 'date'}) class DatePipe {} defines a pure pipe.
@Pipe({name: 'date', pure: false}) class DatePipe {} defines an impure pipe.
Closes#3966
This change moves many APIs to the angular2/core export.
This change also automatically adds FORM_BINDINGS in
the application root injector.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Many dependencies that were previously exported from specific
APIs are now exported from angular2/core. Affected exports, which
should now be included from angular2/core include:
angular2/forms
angular2/di
angular2/directives
angular2/change_detection
angular2/bootstrap (except for dart users)
angular2/render
angular2/metadata
angular2/debug
angular2/pipes
Closes#3977
Instead of working with finer grained element injectors, queries now
iterate through the views as static units of modification of the
application structure. Views already contain element injectors in the
correct depth-first preorder.
This allows us to remove children linked lists on element injectors and a
lot of book keeping that is already present at the view level.
Queries are recalculated using the afterContentChecked and
afterViewChecked hooks, only during init and after a view container has
changed.
BREAKING CHANGE:
ViewQuery no longer supports the descendants flag. It queries the whole
component view by default.
Closes#3973
BREAKING CHANGE
Previously a content binding of a component was visible to the directives in its view with the host constraint. This is not the case any more. To access that binding, remove the constraint.
When running in Dartium without using transformers (i.e. with a normal
static web server), handle relative template URLs. This works by using
mirrors to get the URL of the library where the component class is
defined.
Closes#2771Closes#3743
Ensure that values passed to `DomRenderer#setElementAttribute` are
strings. Currently, booleans can be passed to this method, resulting in
failures when running in Dart checked mode.
The ENUM_INDEX utility was added to return the index of an enum
consistently between Dart and TypeScript, so that the index
could be used to look up the name of the enum. Since dart is no
longer supported by Http, and since no other part of the framework
is using this function, it has been removed.
Closes#3843
BREAKING CHANGE:
This change moves the http module into angular2/, so its import
path is now angular2/http instead of http/http.
Many other modules have also been moved around inside of angular2,
but the public API paths have not changed as of this commit.
Currently the transformer generates all getters and setters even when
creating pre-generated change detectors, which remove the need for them.
Generate getters and setters via the model provided by `ProtoViewDto`,
which contains enough information to allow omitting unnecessary getters
and setters from code output.
Allow generating getters, setters, and method names which are Dart
pseudo keywords.
Closes#3489
Changed 'foctary' to 'factory'.
I wanted to change `{@link AppViewManager#createViewInContainer}` to `{@link AppViewManager#createViewInContainer}#createViewInContainer` and `{@link AppViewManager#createRootHostView}` to `{@link AppViewManager#createRootHostView}#createRootHostView` for readibility (see https://angular.io/docs/js/latest/api/core/ProtoViewRef-class.html it shows `AppViewManager and AppViewManager`). But I'm not sure if that'll work so I'm just going with the typo.
Closes#3677
BREAKING CHANGE (maybe)
Well as long as our customers use public API this should not be a
breaking change, but we have changed import structure as well as
internal names, so it could be breaking.
import:
angular2/annotations => angular2/metadata
Classes:
*Annotations => *Metadata
renderer.DirectiveMetadata => renderer.RendererDirectiveMetadata
renderer.ElementBinder => renderer.RendererElementBinder
impl.Directive => impl.DirectiveMetadata
impl.Component => impl.ComponentMetadata
impl.View => impl.ViewMetadata
Closes#3660
Find angular testability objects across different dart js contexts by
registering each application in a global array and interrogating each
for testabilities.
Closes#3611
Fixes a bug in view manager util where sibling injector is not correctly
calculated.
ViewQuery no longer includes the view's initiating component injector.
Includes some refactoring of view methods and a removal of a polymorphic
map call.
Closes#3033Closes#3439
BREAKING CHANGE:
Instead of configuring pipes via a Pipes object, now you can configure them by providing the pipes property to the View decorator.
@Pipe({
name: 'double'
})
class DoublePipe {
transform(value, args) { return value * 2; }
}
@View({
template: '{{ 10 | double}}'
pipes: [DoublePipe]
})
class CustomComponent {}
Closes#3572
This fixes the following type error that is thrown when calling getAllAngularTestability() while running Dartium in checked mode:
type 'MappedListIterable' is not a subtype of type 'List<PublicTestability>' of 'publicTestabilities'.
BREAKING CHANGE
- Pipe factories have been removed.
- PIpe names to pipe implementations are 1-to-1 instead of 1-to-*
Before:
class DateFormatter {
transform(date, args){}
}
class DateFormatterFactory {
supporst(obj) { return true; }
create(cdRef) { return new DateFormatter(); }
}
new Pipes({date: [new DateFormatterFactory()]})
After
class DateFormatter {
transform(date, args){}
}
new Pipes({date: DateFormatter})
This change also makes us compliant with 1.6.0-dev compiler,
so we can do some experiments with apps that use 1.6 features
and compile against Angular.
We should probably add a travis build for 1.6 so we stay compatible
with both versions.
Introduces the injectable `TemplateCloner` that can be configured via the new token `MAX_IN_MEMORY_ELEMENTS_PER_TEMPLATE_TOKEN`.
Also replaces `document.adoptNode` with `document.importNode` as otherwise
custom elements are not triggered in chrome 43.
Closes#3418Closes#3433
BREAKING CHANGE:
Replace @Ancestor() with @Host() @SkipSelf()
Replace @Unbounded() wwith @SkipSelf()
Replace @Ancestor({self:true}) with @Host()
Replace @Unbounded({self:true}) with nothing
Replace new AncestorMetadata() with [new HostMetadata(), new SkipSelfMetadata()]
Replace new UnboundedMetadata() with new SkipSelfMetadata()
Replace new Ancestor({self:true}) with new HostMetadata()
Move fields common to Dynamic, Jit, and Pregen change detectors into the
`AbstractChangeDetector` superclass to save on codegen size and reduce
code duplication.
Update to #3248, closes#3243
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `ShadowDomStrategy` was removed. To specify the encapsulation of a component use `@View(encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.NONE | ViewEncapsulation.EMULATED | ViewEncapsulation.NATIVE)`
- The default encapsulation strategy is now `ViewEncapsulation.EMULATED` if a component contains styles and `ViewEncapsulation.NONE` if it does not. Before this was always `NONE`.
- `ViewLoader` now returns the template as a string and the styles as a separate array
Previously, the compiler would detect cycles where there were none just because of other components that were compiled in parallel. Furthermore, the way ProtoView merging was triggered could result into early exits resulting in errors when trying to instantiate ProtoViews.
Fixes#3206Closes#3211
BREAKING CHANGE
Previously it was possible to pass a custom error reporter to bootstrap, which was used only during the construction of Injector. This had limited utility, so this capability has been removed.
BREAKING CHANGES:
Dart applications and TypeScript applications meant to transpile to Dart must now
import `package:angular2/bootstrap.dart` instead of `package:angular2/angular2.dart`
in their bootstrap code. `package:angular2/angular2.dart` no longer export the
bootstrap function. The transformer rewrites imports of `bootstrap.dart` and calls
to `bootstrap` to `bootstrap_static.dart` and `bootstrapStatic` respectively.
BREAKING CHANGE
The @Parent annotation has been removed. Use @Ancestor instead.
@Parent was used to enforce a particular DOM structure (e.g., a pane component is a direct child of the tabs component).
DI is not the right mechanism to do it. We should enforce it using schema instead.
BREAKING CHANGES:
`ViewManager.createView` / `ViewContainerRef.create` have been split into 2 methods:
- `createHostView` which takes dynamically created bindings
- `createEmbeddedView` which takes the newly introduced `TemplateRef`
The new type `TemplateRef` is the combination of a `ProtoViewRef` and and `ElementRef`
from the same place. Use `TemplateRef` when working with embedded views in
`ng-if`, `ng-for`, ... instead of `ProtoViewRef`.
Also, `ProtoViewRef` is no more injectable, but `TemplateRef` is.
First part of #1989 to clean up manual content projection.
Closes#3114
Closes#2529
BREAKING CHANGES:
- shadow dom emulation no longer
supports the `<content>` tag. Use the new `<ng-content>` instead
(works with all shadow dom strategies).
- removed `DomRenderer.setViewRootNodes` and `AppViewManager.getComponentView`
-> use `DomRenderer.getNativeElementSync(elementRef)` and change shadow dom directly
- the `Renderer` interface has changed:
* `createView` now also has to support sub views
* the notion of a container has been removed. Instead, the renderer has
to implement methods to attach views next to elements or other views.
* a RenderView now contains multiple RenderFragments. Fragments
are used to move DOM nodes around.
Internal changes / design changes:
- Introduce notion of view fragments on render side
- DomProtoViews and DomViews on render side are merged,
AppProtoViews are not merged, AppViews are partially merged
(they share arrays with the other merged AppViews but we keep
individual AppView instances for now).
- DomProtoViews always have a `<template>` element as root
* needed for storing subviews
* we have less chunks of DOM to clone now
- remove fake ElementBinder / Bound element for root text bindings
and model them explicitly. This removes a lot of special cases we had!
- AppView shares data with nested component views
- some methods in AppViewManager (create, hydrate, dehydrate) are iterative now
* now possible as we have all child AppViews / ElementRefs already in an array!
By binding the token `DOM_REFLECT_PROPERTIES_AS_ATTRIBUTES` provided by
the dom_renderer module to `true` in the root injector (i.e. bootstrap()),
all elements whose properties are set by angular will be reflected as
attributes with the prefix "ng-reflect-".
Fixes#2910
Relying on ASI (automatic semicolon insertion)
is allowed in TypeScript because JavaScript allows
it. However, when we run clang-format it doesn’t
understand that these statements are terminated
with a newline and changes the indentation, in bad
cases even breaking the code.
Fixes#817
This fixes several minor indentation issues (instanceof precendence,
type declaration specificity, template string length calculation).
This should also fix some flip-flop situations with template strings.
BREAKING CHANGE:
This change renames all instances of PipeRegistry to Pipes.
As part of this change, the former "defaultPipes" export is
now a Pipes instance, instead of a map. The map that was previously
called "defaultPipes" no longer exists, but may be accessed via
defaultPipes.config.
The properties of the annotation classes are not really the public API.
Users will interact with these via a decorator, and the decorator
takes a single arg, typed with the args class. Thus the comment is
more useful on the arg class.
This also fixes the problem of intellisense/autocomplete not showing
the important docs as you fill in the properties in a decorator
declaration.
We had the same symbol exported as the interface
for Component decorator as well as the class for
Component annotation, and dgeni only showed the
latter.
Rename the interfaces for decorators with an ‘I’
prefix so they are retained in the .d.ts output.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- rename `ElementRef.domElement` to `ElementRef.nativeElement`
- add `Renderer.getNativeElementSync` to make the app side
less dependent on the dom renderer.
- don’t use `ElementRef.nativeElement` in directives but
use the methods on `Renderer` directly.
- Removed `ElementRef.setAttribute`. Use `Renderer.setElementAttribute` instead.
Closes#2712
Last part of #2476Closes#2476
BREAKING CHANGES:
- Almost all methods in `Renderer` now take a `RenderElementRef` instead
of a `ViewRef` + `boundElementIndex`.
- These methods can be called with the `ElementRef` from the app side
directly.
Closes#2706
Related to #2476
BREAKING CHANGES:
- host actions don't take an expression as value any more but only a method name,
and assumes to get an array via the EventEmitter with the method arguments.
- Renderer.setElementProperty does not take `style.`/... prefixes any more.
Use the new methods `Renderer.setElementAttribute`, ... instead
Part of #2476Closes#2637
These wrappers are not natively understood by
ts2dart. Removing them will improve Dart2JS
compilation due to fewer megamorphic calls to List
functions.
It also makes Angular code more succinct and
improves type safety in Angular due to better type
inference of the Array component type.
This change exposed several bugs in Angular.
Closes#2472Closes#2339
BREAKING CHANGE
- `Compiler.compile` has been removed, the only way to compile
components dynamically is via `Compiler.compileInHost`
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoExistingLocation` has changed:
* renamed into `loadIntoLocation`
* will always create the host element as well
* requires an element with a variable inside of the host component view
next to which it will load new component.
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToExistingLocation` was renamed into
`DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToLocation`
- `DynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoNewLocation` is removed
* use `DynamicComponentLoader.loadNextToLocation` instead
and then move the view nodes
manually around via `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
- `AppViewManager.{create,destroy}Free{Host,Embedded}View` was removed
* use `AppViewManager.createViewInContainer` and then move the view nodes
manually around via `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
- `Renderer.detachFreeView` was removed. Use `DomRenderer.getRootNodes()`
to get the root nodes of a view and detach them manually.
Enable pregenerated (for Dart) and JIT (for Js) change detectors when
possible. Previously we would always use `DynamicChangeDetector`s, but
these cause megamorphic calls and are therefore much slower.
Closes#502
