BREAKING CHANGE (deprecations)
- Instead of `coreBootstrap`, create an `@AppModule` and use `bootstrapModule`.
- Instead of `coreLoadAndBootstarp`, create an `@AppModule` and use `bootstrapModuleFactory`.
- Instead of `bootstrapWorkerApp`, create an `@AppModule` that includes the `WorkerAppModule` and use `bootstrapModule` with the `workerAppPlatform()`.

- Introduces `CompilerFactory` which can be part of a `PlatformRef`.
- Introduces `WorkerAppModule`, `WorkerUiModule`, `ServerModule`
- Introduces `serverDynamicPlatform` for applications using runtime compilation
on the server.
- Changes browser bootstrap for runtime and offline compilation (see below for an example).

import {browserDynamicTestPlatform,
BrowserDynamicTestModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
initTestEnvironment(
BrowserDynamicTestModule,
browserDynamicTestPlatform());
```

BEFORE:
```
import {setBaseTestProviders} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {TEST_SERVER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_SERVER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS} from ‘@angular/platform-server/testing/server’;
setBaseTestProviders(TEST_SERVER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_SERVER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS);
```

```
@AppModule({
modules: [BrowserModule],
precompile: [MainComponent],
providers: […], // additional providers
directives: […], // additional platform directives
pipes: […] // additional platform pipes
})
class MyModule {
constructor(appRef: ApplicationRef) {
appRef.bootstrap(MainComponent);
}

```
Closes#9922
Part of #9726
Introduces the new `ANALYZE_FOR_PRECOMPILE` token. This token can be used to
create a virtual provider that will populate the `precompile` fields of
components and app modules based on its
`useValue`. All components that are referenced in the `useValue`
value (either directly or in a nested array or map) will be added
to the `precompile` property.

BREAKING CHANGE:
We have removed the deprecated form directives from the built-in platform directive list, so apps are not required to package forms with their app. This also makes forms friendly to offline compilation.
Instead, we have exposed three modules:
OLD API:
- `DeprecatedFormsModule`
NEW API:
- `FormsModule`
- `ReactiveFormsModule`
If you provide one of these modules, the default forms directives and providers from that module will be available to you app-wide. Note: You can provide both the `FormsModule` and the `ReactiveFormsModule` together if you like, but they are fully-functional separately.
**Before:**
```ts
import {disableDeprecatedForms, provideForms} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, [
disableDeprecatedForms(),
provideForms()
]);
```
**After:**
```ts
import {DeprecatedFormsModule} from @angular/common;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [DeprecatedFormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {FormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [FormsModule] });
```
-OR-
```ts
import {ReactiveFormsModule} from @angular/forms;
bootstrap(App, {modules: [ReactiveFormsModule] });
```
You can also choose not to provide any forms module and run your app without forms.
Or you can choose not to provide any forms module *and* provide form directives at will. This will allow you to use the deprecatedForms API for some components and not others.
```
import {FORM_DIRECTIVES, FORM_PROVIDERS} from @angular/forms;
@Component({
selector: some-comp,
directives: [FORM_DIRECTIVES],
providers: [FORM_PROVIDERS]
})
class SomeComp
```
Every test now has an implicit module. It can be configured via `configureModule` (from @angular/core/testing)
to add providers, directives, pipes, ...
The compiler now has to be configured separately via `configureCompiler` (from @angular/core/testing)
to add providers or define whether to use jit.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Application providers can no longer inject compiler internals (i.e. everything
from `@angular/compiler). Inject `Compiler` instead. This reflects the
changes to `bootstrap` for module support (3f55aa609f).
- Compiler providers can no longer be added via `addProviders` / `withProviders`.
Use the new method `configureCompiler` instead.
- Platform directives / pipes need to be provided via
`configureModule` and can no longer be provided via the
`PLATFORM_PIPES` / `PLATFORM_DIRECTIVES` tokens.
- `setBaseTestProviders()` was renamed into `initTestEnvironment` and
now takes a `PlatformRef` and a factory for a
`Compiler`.
- E.g. for the browser platform:
BEFORE:
```
import {setBaseTestProviders} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {TEST_BROWSER_DYNAMIC_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_BROWSER_DYNAMIC_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
setBaseTestProviders(TEST_BROWSER_DYNAMIC_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_BROWSER_DYNAMIC_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS);
```
AFTER:
```
import {setBaseTestProviders} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {browserTestCompiler, browserDynamicTestPlatform,
BrowserDynamicTestModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
initTestEnvironment(
browserTestCompiler,
browserDynamicTestPlatform(),
BrowserDynamicTestModule);
```
- E.g. for the server platform:
BEFORE:
```
import {setBaseTestProviders} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {TEST_SERVER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_SERVER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS} from ‘@angular/platform-server/testing/server’;
setBaseTestProviders(TEST_SERVER_PLATFORM_PROVIDERS,
TEST_SERVER_APPLICATION_PROVIDERS);
```
AFTER:
```
import {setBaseTestProviders} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {serverTestCompiler, serverTestPlatform,
ServerTestModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
initTestEnvironment(
serverTestCompiler,
serverTestPlatform(),
ServerTestModule);
```

This introduces the `BrowserModule` to be used for long form
bootstrap and offline compile bootstrap:
```
@AppModule({
modules: [BrowserModule],
precompile: [MainComponent],
providers: […], // additional providers
directives: […], // additional platform directives
pipes: […] // additional platform pipes
})
class MyModule {
constructor(appRef: ApplicationRef) {
appRef.bootstrap(MainComponent);
}
}
// offline compile
import {bootstrapModuleFactory} from ‘@angular/platform-browser’;
bootstrapModuleFactory(MyModuleNgFactory);
// runtime compile long form
import {bootstrapModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic’;
bootstrapModule(MyModule);
```
The short form, `bootstrap(...)`, can now creates a module on the fly,
given `directives`, `pipes, `providers`, `precompile` and `modules`
properties.
Related changes:
- make `SanitizationService`, `SecurityContext` public in `@angular/core` so that the offline compiler can resolve the token
- move `AnimationDriver` to `platform-browser` and make it
public so that the offline compiler can resolve the token
BREAKING CHANGES:
- short form bootstrap does no longer allow
to inject compiler internals (i.e. everything
from `@angular/compiler). Inject `Compiler` instead.
To provide custom providers for the compiler,
create a custom compiler via `browserCompiler({providers: [...]})`
and pass that into the `bootstrap` method.
This implements a new class, QueryEncoder, that provides
methods for encoding keys and values of query parameter.
The encoder encodes with encodeURIComponent, and then
decodes a whitelist of allowed characters back to their
unencoded form.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The changes to Http's URLSearchParams serialization now
prevent encoding of these characters inside query parameters
which were previously converted to percent-encoded values:
@ : $ , ; + ; ? /
The default encoding behavior can be overridden by extending
QueryEncoder, as documented in the URLSearchParams service.
Fixes#9348
Adds new abstraction `Compiler` with methods
`compileComponentAsync` and `compileComponentSync`.
This is in preparation of deprecating `ComponentResolver`.
`compileComponentSync` is able to compile components
synchronously given all components either have an inline
template or they have been compiled before.
Also changes `TestComponentBuilder.createSync` to
take a `Type` and use the new `compileComponentSync` method.
Also supports overriding the component metadata even if
the component has already been compiled.
Also fixes#7084 in a better way.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`TestComponentBuilder.createSync` now takes a component type
and throws if not all templates are either inlined
are compiled before via `createAsync`.
Closes#9594
- ts-api-guardian will now error if a new public symbol is added with a stability marker (`@stable`, `@experimental`, `@deprecated`)
- DomEventsPlugin and KeyEventsPlugin were removed from public api surface - these classes is an implementation detail
- deprecated BROWSER_PROVIDERS was removed completely
- `@angular/compiler` was removed from the ts-api-guardian check since this package shouldn't contain anything that users need to directly import
- the rest of the api surface was conservatively marked as stable or experimental
BREAKING CHANGES: DomEventsPlugin and KeyEventsPlugin previously exported from core are no longer public - these classes are implementation detail.
Previously deprecated BROWSER_PROVIDERS was completely removed from platform-browser.
Closes#9236Closes#9235
Ref #9234
Instead, the async function now determines whether it should return a promise
or instead call a done function parameter. Importing Jasmine functions
from `@angular/core/testing` is no longer necessary and is now deprecated.
Additionally, beforeEachProviders is also deprecated, as it is specific
to the testing framework. Instead, use the new addProviders method directly.
Before:
```js
import {beforeEachProviders, it, describe, inject} from 'angular2/testing/core';
describe('my code', () => {
beforeEachProviders(() => [MyService]);
it('does stuff', inject([MyService], (service) => {
// actual test
});
});
```
After:
```js
import {addProviders, inject} from 'angular2/testing/core';
describe('my code', () => {
beforeEach(() => {
addProviders([MyService]);
});
it('does stuff', inject([MyService], (service) => {
// actual test
});
});
```
TestComponentBuilder now lives in core/testing. compiler/testing contains a private
OverridingTestComponentBuilder implementation which handles the private behavior
we need to override templates. This is part of the effort to simplify the testing
imports and hide compiler APIs.
Closes#9585
BREAKING CHANGE:
`TestComponentBuilder` is now imported from `@angular/core/testing`. Imports
from `@angular/compiler/testing` are deprecated.
Before:
```
import {TestComponentBuilder, TestComponentRenderer, ComponentFixtureAutoDetect} from '@angular/compiler/testing';
```
After:
```
import {TestComponentBuilder, TestComponentRenderer, ComponentFixtureAutoDetect} from '@angular/core/testing';
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
MockLocationStrategy was intended to be internal only and is now removed
from the `@angular/common/testing` public api.
Use `SpyLocation` from `@angular/common/testing` for location testing.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`ComponentFixture` will be moving out of `@angular/compiler/testing` to `@angular/core/testing` in
this release. For now, it is deprecated from `@angular/compiler/testing`.
Previously, we were exporting internal mocks and helpers. Move these
to core/testing/testing_internal or remove them if they were
never used.
Remove deprecated items - injectAsync, clearPendingTimers.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Remove the following APIs from `@angular/core/testing`, which have been deprecated or were
never intended to be publicly exported:
```
injectAsync
clearPendingTimers
Log
MockAppliacationHref
MockNgZone
clearPendingTimers
getTypeOf
instantiateType
```
Instead of `injectAsync`, use `async(inject())`.
`clearPendingTimers` is no longer required.
Mostly, removing things that were never intended to be exported publicy.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The following are no longer publicly exported APIs. They were intended as internal
utilities and you should use your own util:
```
browserDetection,
dispatchEvent,
el,
normalizeCSS,
stringifyElement,
expect (and custom matchers for Jasmine)
