Update the `TemplateCompile` step to use the full render `Compiler`.
Provide `DirectiveMetadata` for `ViewDefinition` objects and use it to
run the `DirectiveParser` step of the render compile pipeline.
The goal is to make implementing a renderer straight forward.
BREAKING_CHANGE:
- Renderer interface was redone / simplified.
- `DirectDomRenderer` was replaced by `DomRenderer`.
- `DirectDomRenderer.setImperativeComponentRootNodes` is replaced
by the following 2 steps:
1. `ViewManager.getComponentView(elementRef) -> ViewRef`
2. `DomRenderer.setComponentViewRootNodes(viewRef, rootNodes)`
- all `@View` annotations need to have a template, but the template
may be empty. Previously views that had a `renderer` property did
not have to have a `template`.
- `dynamicComponentLoader.loadIntoNewLocation` does no more allow
to pass an element, but requires a css selector.
Special syntax: `:document` can be used as prefix to search globally
on the document instead of in the provided parent view.
Part of #1675
Using string1 === string2 translates to identical(string1, string2) in
dart, which is incorrect as it is possilbe for dart strings to have
different reference.
Add a step that reads `DirectiveMetadata` object off annotated classes
into `.ng_meta.dart` files. These will be used by the `TemplateCompiler`
step as inputs to the Angular 2 render compiler.
Update one test to avoid unsupported functionality, format others.
In 'angular2/di' the symbol:
- Inject is a decorator
- InjectAnnotation is an annotation
Internally one an get a hold of annotations without *Annotations appened
(to make ts2dart work without workarounds) by importing from
'angular2/src/di/annotations_impl' instead of 'angular2/di'. This is
needed only for users that transpile through TS and through ts2dart.
This removes .es6 files which are pure duplicates of a
.ts file in the same folder.
Next we need to remove .js files as well, and remove karma preprocessors for dart.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, `Directive` was the abstract base class of several directives.
Now, `Directive` is the former `Decorator`, and `Component` inherits from it.
BREAKING_CHANGE:
- The special type of `Viewport` directives is removed
in favor of a more general `Decorator` directive
- `ViewContainerRef` now no more has a default `ProtoViewRef`
but requires an explicit one when creating views.
Closes#1536
Add utility methods to convert `render.dom.DirectiveMetadata` to and
from maps. This will allow saving and restoring `DirectiveMetadata` in
the Angular 2 Transformer.
We discussed adding this as a member on `DirectiveMetadata`. Since this
is not necessary for anything except the Transformer, we decided to put
it into a separate file to avoid shipping it with the Angular 2 core
code.
BREAKING CHANGES:
- `NgElement` merged into `ElementRef`
- `Compiler.compile…` returns `ProtoViewRef`
- `ViewContainer` uses `ProtoViewRef`s and `ViewRef`s.
- `ViewRef`/`ProtoViewRef` in renderer were renamed to
`RenderViewRef`/`RenderProtoViewRef`.
