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
With the coming bootstrapping changes, a single application (and thus Router) can have multiple root components. One of these needs to be identified as the "primary" component from which the Router will load its configuration. This is now done by providing a ROUTER_PRIMARY_COMPONENT binding to the primary component type.
Previosly, recognition ended when a parent captured all the parsed URL segments.
This caused routes that delegated from a parent to a child with an empty segment
to never be recognized.
Closes#4178
Previously, `router.navigate` took a string representing the URL.
Now, it accepts an array that mirrors the link DSL.
Closes#4040
BREAKING CHANGE
The old method has been renamed to `router.navigateByUrl`.
Either change your navigation calls to use the DSL (preferred) or
call `router.navigateByUrl` instead.
Closes#4074
Previously, async routes generated from links would not load the configs of
their resolved components, which led to broken links in the children of the
async instruction's component.
This commit fixes the bookkeeping in the Router to correctly load the configs.
Fixes internal b/23791558
Closes#4146
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
