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
Remove test setup functions which were deprecated in rc5. See the
changelog for rc5 for how to update. In brief, instead of
`setBaseTestProviders`, use `TestBed.initTestEnvironment`.
This contains major changes to the compiler, bootstrap of the platforms
and test environment initialization.
Main part of #10043Closes#10164
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Semantics and name of `@AppModule` (now `@NgModule`) changed quite a bit.
This is actually not breaking as `@AppModules` were not part of rc.4.
We will have detailed docs on `@NgModule` separately.
- `coreLoadAndBootstrap` and `coreBootstrap` can't be used any more (without migration support).
Use `bootstrapModule` / `bootstrapModuleFactory` instead.
- All Components listed in routes have to be part of the `declarations` of an NgModule.
Either directly on the bootstrap module / lazy loaded module, or in an NgModule imported by them.
This change reverts the removal of setBaseTestProviders that was
introduced in 8d746e3f67.
Instead, setBaseTestProviders and the providers provided from
`@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing` and `@angular/server/testing`
will still work for the next release, but are deprecated.
See 8d746e3f67 for how to upgrade.
- 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).
* introduces `bootstrapModule` and `bootstrapModuleFactory` in `@angular/core`
* introduces new `browserDynamicPlatform` in `@angular/platform-browser-dynamic
- Changes `initTestEnvironment` (which used to be `setBaseTestProviders`) to not take a compiler factory any more (see below for an example).
BREAKING CHANGE:
## Migration from `setBaseTestProviders` to `initTestEnvironment`:
- 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 {initTestEnvironment} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {browserDynamicTestPlatform,
BrowserDynamicTestModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
initTestEnvironment(
BrowserDynamicTestModule,
browserDynamicTestPlatform());
```
- 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 {initTestEnvironment} from ‘@angular/core/testing’;
import {serverTestPlatform,
ServerTestModule} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic/testing’;
initTestEnvironment(
ServerTestModule,
serverTestPlatform());
```
## Bootstrap changes
```
@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 {browserPlatform} from ‘@angular/platform-browser’;
import {bootstrapModuleFactory} from ‘@angular/core’;
bootstrapModuleFactory(MyModuleNgFactory, browserPlatform());
// runtime compile long form
import {browserDynamicPlatform} from ‘@angular/platform-browser-dynamic’;
import {bootstrapModule} from ‘@angular/core’;
bootstrapModule(MyModule, browserDynamicPlatform());
```
Closes#9922
Part of #9726
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);
```
Related to #9726Closes#9846
- 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.
