This commit introduces a new option to template-driven forms that
improves performance by delaying form control updates until the
"blur" or "submit" event. To use it, set the `updateOn` property
in `ngModelOptions`.
```html
<input ngModel [ngModelOptions]="{updateOn: blur}">
```
Like in AngularJS, setting `updateOn` to `blur` or `submit` will
delay the update of the value as well as the validation status.
Updating value and validity together keeps the system easy to reason
about, as the two will always be in sync. It's also worth noting
that the value/validation pipeline does still run when the form is
initialized (in order to support initial values).
Upcoming PRs will address:
* Support for setting group-level `updateOn` in template-driven forms
* Option for skipping initial validation run or more global error
display configuration
* Better support of reactive validation strategies
See more context in #18408, #18514, and the [design doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dlJjRXYeuHRygryK0XoFrZNqW86jH4wobftCFyYa1PA/edit#heading=h.r6gn0i8f19wz).
BREAKING CHANGE
It is no longer possible to declare classes in this format.
```
Component({...}).
Class({
constructor: function() {...}
})
```
This format would only work with JIT and with ES5. This mode doesn’t
allow build tools like Webpack to process and optimize the code, which
results in prohibitively large bundles. We are removing this API
because we are trying to ensure that everyone is on the fast path by
default, and it is not possible to get on the fast path using the ES5
DSL. The replacement is to use TypeScript and `@Decorator` format.
```
@Component({...})
class {
constructor() {...}
}
```
The source map does not currently work with the transformer pipeline.
It will be re-enabled after TypeScript 2.4 is made the min version.
To revert to the former compiler, use the `disableTransformerPipeline` in
tsconfig.json:
```
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"disableTransformerPipeline": true
}
}
```
This commit adds support for setting default `updateOn` values
in `FormGroups` and `FormArrays`. If you set `updateOn` to
’blur’` at the group level, all child controls will default to `’blur’`,
unless the child has explicitly specified a different `updateOn` value.
```
const c = new FormGroup({
one: new FormControl()
}, {updateOn: blur});
```
It's worth noting that parent groups will always update their value and
validity immediately upon value/validity updates from children. In other
words, if a group is set to update on blur and its children are individually
set to update on change, the group will still update on change with its
children; its default value will simply not be used.
This commit also updates the version of `@angular/cli` used for docs examples.
The previous (transient) dependency `@ngtools/webpack` was not compatible with
`@angular/compiler-cli@>=5` and was breaking when running against the local
builds (currently at 5.0.0-beta.2). The version of `@ngtools/webpack` used by
the latest `@angular/cli` version is compatible with `@angular/compiler-cli@5`.
This change allows ReflectiveInjector to be tree shaken resulting
in not needed Reflect polyfil and smaller bundles.
Code savings for HelloWorld using Closure:
Reflective: bundle.js: 105,864(34,190 gzip)
Static: bundle.js: 154,889(33,555 gzip)
645( 2%)
BREAKING CHANGE:
`platformXXXX()` no longer accepts providers which depend on reflection.
Specifically the method signature when from `Provider[]` to
`StaticProvider[]`.
Example:
Before:
```
[
MyClass,
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA}
]
```
After:
```
[
{provide: MyClass, deps: [Dep1,...]},
{provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA, deps: [Dep1,...]}
]
```
NOTE: This only applies to platform creation and providers for the JIT
compiler. It does not apply to `@Compotent` or `@NgModule` provides
declarations.
Benchpress note: Previously Benchpress also supported reflective
provides, which now require static providers.
DEPRECATION:
- `ReflectiveInjector` is now deprecated as it will be remove. Use
`Injector.create` as a replacement.
closes#18496
Problem description: when using ngTemplateOutlet with context as
an object literal in a template and binding to the context's property
the embedded view would get re-created even if context object remains
essentially the same (the same shape, just update to one properties).
This happens since currently change detection will re-create object
references when an object literal is used and one of its properties
gets updated through a binding.
Solution: this commit changes ngTemplateOutlet logic so we take
context object shape into account before deciding if we should
re-create view or just update existing context.
Fixes#13407
There are now 3 modes for deployment: next, stable, archive.
We compute which mode (and other deployment properties)
from the `TRAVIS_BRANCH` and the `STABLE_BRANCH`.
If the TRAVIS_BRANCH is master we deploy as "next".
If the `TRAVIS_BRANCH` matches the `STABLE_BRANCH` we deploy as "stable".
Otherwise if the branch has a major version lower than the stable version
and its minor version is highest of similar branches we deploy as "archive".
For "archive" deployments we compute the firebase project and deployment
url based on the major version of the `TRAVIS_BRANCH`.
As well as choosing where to deploy the build, we also use this
to select the environment file for the AIO Angular app.
This will enable the app to change its rendering and behaviour
based on its mode.
