Secondary entry points (testing, static, etc) are rolled up into a
single ESM/ES2015 file, then downleveled to ESM/ES2015. This downleveling
was not working and was producing ESM/ES2015. Also, the @angular/core
package's .babelrc file was missing reference to Rx Observable which
broke the UMD bundle.
Fixes#14730
After the introduction of the view engine, we can drop a lot of code that is not used any more.
This should reduce the size of the app bundles because a lot of this code was not being properly tree-shaken by today's tools even though it was dead code.
E.g. for no view encapsulation, the delegate will always be the same.
Nevertheless, we still need to create a new `AnimationRenderer` per
component.
Attention: This change will conflict with a local mod in G3.
- Don’t use the animation renderer if a component
used style encapsulation but no animations.
- The `AnimationRenderer` should be cached in the same
lifecycle as its delegate.
- Trigger names need to be namespaced per component type.
When the `enableLegacyTemplate` is set to `false`, `<template>` tags and the
`template` attribute are no more used to define angular templates but are
treated as regular tag and attribute.
The default value is `true`.
In order to define a template, you have to use the `<ng-template>` tag.
This option applies to your application and all the libraries it uses. That is
you should make sure none of them rely on the legacy way to defined templates
when this option is turned off (`false`).
The rationale of this change is to improve the inter-operability with web
components that might make use of the `<template>` tag.
DEPRECATION
The template tags and template attribute are deprecated:
<template ngFor [ngFor]=items let-item><li>...</li></template>
<li template="ngFor: let item of items">...</li>
should be rewritten as:
<ng-template ngFor [ngFor]=items let-item><li>...</li></ng-template>
Note that they still be supported in 4.x with a deprecartion warning in
development mode.
MIGRATION
- `template` tags (or elements with a `template` attribute) should be rewritten
as a `ng-template` tag,
- `ng-content` selectors should be updated to referto a `ng-template` where they
use to refer to a template: `<ng-content selector="template[attr]">` should be
rewritten as `<ng-content selector="ng-template[attr]">`
- if you consume a component relying on your templates being actual `template`
elements (that is they include a `<ng-content selector="template[attr]">`). You
should still migrate to `ng-template` and make use of `ngProjectAs` to override
the way `ng-content` sees the template:
`<ng-template projectAs="template[attr]">`
- while `template` elements are deprecated in 4.x they continue to work.
BREAKING CHANGE: Because all lifecycle hooks are now interfaces
the code that uses 'extends' keyword will no longer compile.
To migrate the code follow the example below:
Before:
```
@Component()
class SomeComponent extends OnInit {}
```
After:
```
@Component()
class SomeComponent implements OnInit {}
```
we don't expect anyone to be affected by this change.
Closes#10083
Use `RendererV2` instead of `Renderer` now. `Renderer` can still be injected
and delegates to `RendererV2`.
Use `RendererFactoryV2` instead of `RootRenderer`. `RootRenderer` cannot be used
anymore.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `RootRenderer` cannot be used any more, use `RendererFactoryV2` instead.
Note: `Renderer` can still be injected/used, but is deprecated.
Currently styles are rendered to the root component element, which ensures they're cleaned up automatically
when the client application is bootstrapped. This is less than ideal as progressive rendering can cause HTML
to be rendered before the CSS is loaded, causing flicker.
This change returns to rendering <style> elements in the <head>, and introduces a mechanism for removing
them on client bootstrap. This relies on associating the server and client bootstrap. Another way to think
of this is that the client, when bootstrapping an app, needs to know whether to expect a server rendered
application exists on the page, and to identify the <style> elements that are part of that app in order
to remove them.
This is accomplished by providing a string TRANSITION_ID on both server and client. For most applications,
this will be achieved by writing a client app module that imports BrowserModule.withServerTransition({appId: <id>}).
The server app module will import this client app module and therefore inherit the provider for
TRANSITION_ID. renderModule[Factory] on the server will validate that a TRANSITION_ID has been provided.
TypeScript compiler will now build to ES2015 code and modules. Babili is used to minify ES2015
code, providing an initial optimization that we couldn't previously get just from Uglify. Uses
Babel to convert ES2015 to UMD/ES5 code, and Uglify to minimize the output.
Some versions of TypeScript are super slow to compile functions that
contain a lot of `if` conditions in them. Splitting the handle event
expressions per element is similar to what we did in the old codegen.
Allow to style components that don’t use shadow dom inside of components that do.
This reverts 53cf2ec573
and adds a test for this case.

Note that this does not yet include enabling the view engine
by default.
Included refactoring:
- view engine: split namespace of elements / attributes already
when creating the `NodeDef`
- view engine: when injecting the old `Renderer`, use an implementation
that is based on `RendererV2`
- view engine: store view queries in the component view, not
on the host element
Included refactoring:
- splits the `RendererV2` into a `RendererFactoryV2` and a `RendererV2`
- makes the `DebugRendererV2` a private class in `@angular/core`
- remove `setBindingDebugInfo` from `RendererV2`, but rename `RendererV2.setText` to
`RendererV2.setValue` and allow it on comments and text nodes.

This change installs HttpModule with ServerModule, and overrides bindings to
service Http requests made from the server with the 'xhr2' NPM package.
Outgoing requests are wrapped in a Zone macro-task, so they will be tracked
within the Angular zone and cause the isStable API to show 'false' until they
return. This is essential for Universal support of server-side HTTP.
This ensures when the tree is serialized to the client and the app is later bootstrapped,
the <style> tags created during server-side rendering are destroyed.
Aspects: di, query, content projection
Included refactoring:
- use a number as query id
- use a bloom filter for aggregating matched queries of nested elements
- separate static vs dynamic queries

- PlatformState provides an interface to serialize the current Platform State as a string or Document.
- renderModule and renderModuleFactory are convenience methods to wait for Angular Application to stabilize and then render the state to a string.
- refactor code to remove defaultDoc from DomAdapter and inject DOCUMENT where it's needed.
Included refactoring:
- make ViewData.parentIndex point to component provider index
- split NodeType.Provider into Provider / Directive / Pipe
- make purePipe take the real pipe as argument to detect changes
- order change detection:
1) directive props
2) renderer props

BREAKING CHANGE:
- `KeyValueDifferFactory` and `IterableDifferFactory` no longer have `ChangeDetectorRef` as
a parameter. It was not used and has been there for historical reasons. If you call
`DifferFactory.create(...)` remove the `ChangeDetectorRef` argument.
- Make sure `NodeDef`s don’t fall into dictionary mode.
- Use strategy pattern to add debug information / checks, instead of constantly checking for `isDevMode`.
- introduce a very light weight `RendererV2` interface to not have duplicate
code paths for direct and non direct rendering
The strategy pattern is implemented via the new `Services` object.

Note that the duplication in tsconfig.json files will be fixed in a followup CL now that we have tsconfig inheritance
BREAKING CHANGE: Angular 4 will support only TypeScript 2.1, so we no longer provide backwards compatibility to TS 1.8.
Subclassing errors is problematic since Error returns a
new instance. All of the patching which we do than prevent
proper application of source maps.

Previously, the `previousValue` and `currentValue` arguments passed to the
`SimpleChange` constructor were swapped for interpolation bindings.
This commit also refactors the code, so that interpolation bindings and property
bindings share the same implementation, and fixes some broken tests (that hide
failures by allowing the `$exceptionHandler` to swallow thrown exceptions).

Note, this affects the underlying class and should not affect usage.
DEPRECATION:
- the `NgFor` class is now deprecated. Use `NgForOf<T>` instead.
IMPORTANT: Only the `NgFor` class is deprecated, not the `ngFor`
directive. The `*ngFor` and related directives are unaffected by
this change as references to the `NgFor` class generated from
templates will be automatically converted to references to
`NgForOf<T>` without requiring any template modifications.
- `TrackByFn` is now deprecated. Use `TrackByFunction<T>` instead.
Migration:
- Replace direct references to the `NgFor` class to `NgForOf<any>`.
- Replace references to `TrackByFn` to `TrackByFunction<any>`.
BREAKING CHANGE:
A definition of `Iterable<T>` is now required to correctly compile
Angular applications. Support for `Iterable<T>` is not required at
runtime but a type definition `Iterable<T>` must be available.
`NgFor`, and now `NgForOf<T>`, already supports `Iterable<T>` at
runtime. With this change the type definition is updated to reflect
this support.
Migration:
- add "es2015.iterable.ts" to your tsconfig.json "libs" fields.

Correctly wire up hierarchical injectors for downgraded components in
`upgrade/static`: Downgraded components inherit the injector of the first
downgraded component up the DOM tree.
This is similar to (part of) d91a86a, but for `upgrade/static`.
POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE:
In order to enable more control over the wiring of downgraded components and
their content (which eventually allows better control over features like
injector setup and content projection), it was necessary to change the
implementation of the directives generated for downgraed components.
The directives are now terminal and manually take care of projecting and
compiling their contents in the post-linking function. This is similar to how
the dynamic version of `upgrade` does it.
This is not expected to affect apps, since the relative order of individual
operations is preserved. Still, it is difficult to predict how every possible
usecase may be affected.
This affects the dynamic version of `upgrade` and makes it more consistent with
the static version, while removing an artificial limitation.
This commit also refactors the file layout and code, in order to share code wrt
to dowgrading components between the dynamic and static versions.
This makes it more consistent with the dynamic version of `upgrade` and makes it
possible to share code between the dynamic and static versions.
This commit also refactors the file layout, moving common and dynamic-specific
files to `common/` and `dynamic/` directories respectively and renaming `aot/`
to `static/`.
Some private keys, used as AngularJS DI tokens, have also been renamed, but this
should not affect apps, since these keys are undocumented and not supposed to
be used externally.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, `upgrade/static/downgradeInjectable` returned an array of the form:
```js
['dep1', 'dep2', ..., function factory(dep1, dep2, ...) { ... }]
```
Now it returns a function with an `$inject` property:
```js
factory.$inject = ['dep1', 'dep2', ...];
function factory(dep1, dep2, ...) { ... }
```
It shouldn't affect the behavior of apps, since both forms are equally suitable
to be used for registering AngularJS injectable services, but it is possible
that type-checking might fail or that current code breaks if it relies on the
returned value being an array.
`params` has been introduced in 4.0.0-beta.0

Make sure that context (`this`) that is passed to functions generated by test helpers is passed through to the callback functions. Enables usage of Jasmine's variable sharing system to prevent accidental memory leaks during test runs.
ReflectiveInjector previously used two strategies for resolving dependencies. These
were to support the Dart implementation, but are no longer needed. A result of this
PR is there is no longer a 20 dependency limit and the generated code is smaller.
