Support for using the `ngModel` input property and `ngModelChange`
event with reactive form directives has been deprecated in
Angular v6 and will be removed in Angular v7.
Now deprecated:
```html
<input [formControl]="control" [(ngModel)]="value">
```
```ts
this.value = 'some value';
```
This has been deprecated for a few reasons. First, developers have
found this pattern confusing. It seems like the actual `ngModel`
directive is being used, but in fact it's an input/output property
named `ngModel` on the reactive form directive that simply approximates
(some of) its behavior. Specifically, it allows getting/setting the
value and intercepting value events. However, some of `ngModel`'s other
features - like delaying updates with`ngModelOptions` or exporting the
directive - simply don't work, which has understandably caused some
confusion.
In addition, this pattern mixes template-driven and reactive forms
strategies, which we generally don't recommend because it doesn't take
advantage of the full benefits of either strategy. Setting the value in
the template violates the template-agnostic principles behind reactive
forms, whereas adding a FormControl/FormGroup layer in the class removes
the convenience of defining forms in the template.
To update your code before v7, you'll want to decide whether to stick
with reactive form directives (and get/set values using reactive forms
patterns) or switch over to template-driven directives.
After (choice 1 - use reactive forms):
```html
<input [formControl]="control">
```
```ts
this.control.setValue('some value');
```
After (choice 2 - use template-driven forms):
```html
<input [(ngModel)]="value">
```
```ts
this.value = 'some value';
```
You can also choose to silence this warning by providing a config for
`ReactiveFormsModule` at import time:
```ts
imports: [
ReactiveFormsModule.withConfig({warnOnNgModelWithFormControl: 'never'});
]
```
Alternatively, you can choose to surface a separate warning for each
instance of this pattern with a config value of `"always"`. This may
help to track down where in the code the pattern is being used as the
code is being updated.
Note: `warnOnNgModelWithFormControl` is set up as deprecated so that it
can be removed in v7 when it is no longer needed. This will not display
properly in API docs yet because dgeni doesn't yet support deprecating
properties in object literals, but we have an open issue to resolve the
discrepancy here: https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/22640.

InjectionToken can be created with an ngInjectableDef, and previously
this allowed the full expressiveness of @Injectable. However, this
requires a runtime reflection system in order to generate factories
from expressed provider declarations.
Instead, this change requires scoped InjectionTokens to provide the
factory directly (likely using inject() for the arguments), bypassing
the need for a reflection system.

@Injectable() supports a scope parameter which specifies the target module.
However, it's still difficult to specify that a particular service belongs
in the root injector. A developer attempting to ensure that must either
also provide a module intended for placement in the root injector or target
a module known to already be in the root injector (e.g. BrowserModule).
Both of these strategies are cumbersome and brittle.
Instead, this commit adds a token APP_ROOT_SCOPE which provides a
straightforward way of targeting the root injector directly, without
requiring special knowledge of modules within it.

This commit bundles 3 important changes, with the goal of enabling tree-shaking
of services which are never injected. Ordinarily, this tree-shaking is prevented
by the existence of a hard dependency on the service by the module in which it
is declared.
Firstly, @Injectable() is modified to accept a 'scope' parameter, which points
to an @NgModule(). This reverses the dependency edge, permitting the module to
not depend on the service which it "provides".
Secondly, the runtime is modified to understand the new relationship created
above. When a module receives a request to inject a token, and cannot find that
token in its list of providers, it will then look at the token for a special
ngInjectableDef field which indicates which module the token is scoped to. If
that module happens to be in the injector, it will behave as if the token
itself was in the injector to begin with.
Thirdly, the compiler is modified to read the @Injectable() metadata and to
generate the special ngInjectableDef field as part of TS compilation, using the
PartialModules system.
Additionally, this commit adds several unit and integration tests of various
flavors to test this change.

Structural directives can now specify a type guard that describes
what types can be inferred for an input expression inside the
directive's template.
NgIf was modified to declare an input guard on ngIf.
After this change, `fullTemplateTypeCheck` will infer that
usage of `ngIf` expression inside it's template is truthy.
For example, if a component has a property `person?: Person`
and a template of `<div *ngIf="person"> {{person.name}} </div>`
the compiler will no longer report that `person` might be null or
undefined.
The template compiler will generate code similar to,
```
if (NgIf.ngIfTypeGuard(instance.person)) {
instance.person.name
}
```
to validate the template's use of the interpolation expression.
Calling the type guard in this fashion allows TypeScript to infer
that `person` is non-null.

Currently a bug exists where attempting to inject SwPush crashes the
application if Service Workers are unsupported. This happens because
SwPush doesn't properly detect that navigator.serviceWorker isn't
set.
This change ensures that all passive observation of SwPush and
SwUpdate doesn't cause crashes, and that calling methods to perform
actions on them results in rejected Promises. It's up to applications
to detect when those services are not available, and refrain from
attempting to use them.
To that end, this change also adds an `isSupported` getter to both
services, so users don't have to rely on feature detection directly
with browser APIs. Currently this simply detects whether the SW API
is present, but in the future it will be expanded to detect whether
a particular browser supports specific APIs (such as push
notifications, for example).
Currently, the way to not use the SW is to not install its module.
However, this means that you can't inject any of its services.
This change adds a ServiceWorkerModule.disabled() MWP, that still
registers all of the right providers but acts as if the browser does
not support Service Workers.

appropriate.
* ngsw: prefix was missing from data groups, is now added.
* Occasionally servers will return a redirected response for an asset, and caching it could
cause errors for navigation requests. The SW now handles this by detecting such responses
and following the redirect manually, to avoid caching a redirected response.
* The request for known assets is now created from scratch from the URL before fetching from
the network, in order to sanitize it and avoid carrying any special modes or headers that
might result in opaque responses.
* Debugging log for troubleshooting.
* Avoid creating errors by returning 504 responses on error.

Uses Domino - https://github.com/fgnass/domino and removes dependency on
Parse5.
The DOCUMENT and nativeElement were never typed earlier and were
different on the browser(DOM nodes) and the server(Parse5 nodes). With
this change, platform-server also exposes a DOCUMENT and nativeElement
that is closer to the client. If you were relying on nativeElement on
the server, you would have to change your code to use the DOM API now
instead of Parse5 AST API.
Removes the need to add services for each and every Document
manipulation like Title/Meta etc.
This does *not* provide a global variable 'document' or 'window' on the
server. You still have to inject DOCUMENT to get the document backing
the current platform server instance.
Today, constructing a new GET request with headers looks like:

http.get('/url', {headers: {'My-Header': 'header value'}}).subscribe(...);
This commit allows that new syntax, both for HttpHeaders and HttpParams.

BREAKING CHANGE: Because of multiple bugs and browser inconsistencies, we have dropped the intl api in favor of data exported from the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR).
Unfortunately we had to change the i18n pipes (date, number, currency, percent) and there are some breaking changes.
1. I18n pipes
* Breaking change:
- By default Angular now only contains locale data for the language `en-US`, if you set the value of `LOCALE_ID` to another locale, you will have to import new locale data for this language because we don't use the intl API anymore.
* Features:
- you don't need to use the intl polyfill for Angular anymore.
- all i18n pipes now have an additional last parameter `locale` which allows you to use a specific locale instead of the one defined in the token `LOCALE_ID` (whose value is `en-US` by default).
- the new locale data extracted from CLDR are now available to developers as well and can be used through an API (which should be especially useful for library authors).
- you can still use the old pipes for now, but their names have been changed and they are no longer included in the `CommonModule`. To use them, you will have to import the `DeprecatedI18NPipesModule` after the `CommonModule` (the order is important):
```ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { CommonModule, DeprecatedI18NPipesModule } from '@angular/common';
@NgModule({
imports: [
CommonModule,
// import deprecated module after
DeprecatedI18NPipesModule
]
})
export class AppModule { }
```
Dont forget that you will still need to import the intl API polyfill if you want to use those deprecated pipes.
2. Date pipe
* Breaking changes:
- the predefined formats (`short`, `shortTime`, `shortDate`, `medium`, ...) now use the patterns given by CLDR (like it was in AngularJS) instead of the ones from the intl API. You might notice some changes, e.g. `shortDate` will be `8/15/17` instead of `8/15/2017` for `en-US`.
- the narrow version of eras is now `GGGGG` instead of `G`, the format `G` is now similar to `GG` and `GGG`.
- the narrow version of months is now `MMMMM` instead of `L`, the format `L` is now the short standalone version of months.
- the narrow version of the week day is now `EEEEE` instead of `E`, the format `E` is now similar to `EE` and `EEE`.
- the timezone `z` will now fallback to `O` and output `GMT+1` instead of the complete zone name (e.g. `Pacific Standard Time`), this is because the quantity of data required to have all the zone names in all of the existing locales is too big.
- the timezone `Z` will now output the ISO8601 basic format, e.g. `+0100`, you should now use `ZZZZ` to get `GMT+01:00`.
| Field type | Format | Example value | v4 | v5 |
|------------|---------------|-----------------------|----|---------------|
| Eras | Narrow | A for AD | G | GGGGG |
| Months | Narrow | S for September | L | MMMMM |
| Week day | Narrow | M for Monday | E | EEEEE |
| Timezone | Long location | Pacific Standard Time | z | Not available |
| Timezone | Long GMT | GMT+01:00 | Z | ZZZZ |
* Features
- new predefined formats `long`, `full`, `longTime`, `fullTime`.
- the format `yyy` is now supported, e.g. the year `52` will be `052` and the year `2017` will be `2017`.
- standalone months are now supported with the formats `L` to `LLLLL`.
- week of the year is now supported with the formats `w` and `ww`, e.g. weeks `5` and `05`.
- week of the month is now supported with the format `W`, e.g. week `3`.
- fractional seconds are now supported with the format `S` to `SSS`.
- day periods for AM/PM now supports additional formats `aa`, `aaa`, `aaaa` and `aaaaa`. The formats `a` to `aaa` are similar, while `aaaa` is the wide version if available (e.g. `ante meridiem` for `am`), or equivalent to `a` otherwise, and `aaaaa` is the narrow version (e.g. `a` for `am`).
- extra day periods are now supported with the formats `b` to `bbbbb` (and `B` to `BBBBB` for the standalone equivalents), e.g. `morning`, `noon`, `afternoon`, ....
- the short non-localized timezones are now available with the format `O` to `OOOO`. The formats `O` to `OOO` will output `GMT+1` while the format `OOOO` will be `GMT+01:00`.
- the ISO8601 basic time zones are now available with the formats `Z` to `ZZZZZ`. The formats `Z` to `ZZZ` will output `+0100`, while the format `ZZZZ` will be `GMT+01:00` and `ZZZZZ` will be `+01:00`.
* Bug fixes
- the date pipe will now work exactly the same across all browsers, which will fix a lot of bugs for safari and IE.
- eras can now be used on their own without the date, e.g. the format `GG` will be `AD` instead of `8 15, 2017 AD`.
3. Currency pipe
* Breaking change:
- the default value for `symbolDisplay` is now `symbol` instead of `code`. This means that by default you will see `$4.99` for `en-US` instead of `USD4.99` previously.
* Deprecation:
- the second parameter of the currency pipe (`symbolDisplay`) is no longer a boolean, it now takes the values `code`, `symbol` or `symbol-narrow`. A boolean value is still valid for now, but it is deprecated and it will print a warning message in the console.
* Features:
- you can now choose between `code`, `symbol` or `symbol-narrow` which gives you access to more options for some currencies (e.g. the canadian dollar with the code `CAD` has the symbol `CA$` and the symbol-narrow `$`).
4. Percent pipe
* Breaking change
- if you don't specify the number of digits to round to, the local format will be used (and it usually rounds numbers to 0 digits, instead of not rounding previously), e.g. `{{ 3.141592 | percent }}` will output `314%` for the locale `en-US` instead of `314.1592%` previously.

This commit introduces a new Input property called
`ngFormOptions` to the `NgForm` directive. You can use it
to set default `updateOn` values for all the form's child
controls. This default will be used unless the child has
already explicitly set its own `updateOn` value in
`ngModelOptions`.
Potential values: `change` | `blur` | `submit`
```html
<form [ngFormOptions]="{updateOn: blur}">
<input name="one" ngModel> <!-- will update on blur-->
</form>
```
For more context, see [#18577](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/18577).
toString() from DefaultIterableDiffer is only used in tests and should not
be part of the production code. toString() methods from differs add
~ 0.3KB (min+gzip) to the production bundle size.
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

results in prohibitively large bundles. We are removing this API
because we are trying to ensure that everyone is on the fast path by

DSL. The replacement is to use TypeScript and `@Decorator` format.

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 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.

FormControls, FormGroups, and FormArrays now optionally accept an options
object as their second argument. Validators and async validators can be
passed in as part of this options object (though they can still be passed
in as the second and third arg as before).
```ts
const c = new FormControl(, {
validators: [Validators.required],
asyncValidators: [myAsyncValidator]
});
```
This commit also adds support for passing arrays of validators and async
validators to FormGroups and FormArrays, which formerly only accepted
individual functions.
```ts
const g = new FormGroup({
one: new FormControl()
}, [myPasswordValidator, myOtherValidator]);
```
This change paves the way for adding more options to AbstractControls,
such as more fine-grained control of validation timing.
Angular can make many assumptions about its event handlers. As a result
the bookkeeping for native addEventListener is significantly cheaper
than Zone's addEventLister which can't make such assumptions.
This change bypasses the Zone's addEventListener if present and always
uses the native addEventHandler. As a result registering event listeners
is about 3 times faster.

HttpClient is an evolution of the existing Angular HTTP API, which exists
alongside of it in a separate package, @angular/common/http. This structure
ensures that existing codebases can slowly migrate to the new API.
The new API improves significantly on the ergonomics and features of the legacy
API. A partial list of new features includes:
* Typed, synchronous response body access, including support for JSON body types
* JSON is an assumed default and no longer needs to be explicitly parsed
* Interceptors allow middleware logic to be inserted into the pipeline
* Immutable request/response objects
* Progress events for both request upload and response download
* Post-request verification & flush based testing framework
Destructuring of the form:
function foo({a, b}: {a?, b?} = {})
breaks strictNullChecks, due to the TypeScript bug https://github.com/microsoft/typescript/issues/10078.
This change eliminates usage of destructuring in function argument lists in cases where it would leak
into the public API .d.ts.
With 4.2, we introduced the min and max validator directives. This was actually a breaking change because their selectors could include custom value accessors using the min/max properties for their own purposes.
For now, we are rolling back the change by removing the exports. At the least, we should wait to add them until a major version. In the meantime, we will have further discussion about what the best solution is going forward for all validator directives.
Closes#17491.

This puts the behavior introduced in 573b8611bc behind the new flag
`alwaysCompileGeneratedCode` to not break users that might have relied
on this behavior.
Previously the RequestOptions/ResponseOptions classes had constructors
with a destructured argument hash (represented by the
{Request,Response}OptionsArgs type). This type consists entirely of
optional members.
This produces a .d.ts file which includes the constructor declaration:
constructor({param, otherParam}?: OptionsArgs);
However, this declaration doesn't type-check properly. TypeScript
determines the actual type of the hash parameter to be OptionsArgs | undefined,
which it then concludes does not have a `param` or `otherParam` member.
This is a bug in TypeScript ( https://github.com/microsoft/typescript/issues/10078 ).
As a workaround, destructuring is moved inside the method, where it does not produce
broken artifacts in the .d.ts.
Fixes#16663.
Motivation: `yarn outdated`, for exmaple, shows the homepage URL on the command line. If copy-pasting or clicking on the URL, it's nice to see the repo's page instead of a 404.
Now converts shorthand imports for every TypeScript target. Tsickle is able to expand index shorthand imports for every TypeScript target and module possibility.
Expanding shorthand imports for CommonJS modules is also helpful when testing in the browser. Module loaders like SystemJS are not able to understand directory imports (or index shorthand imports)
`flush()` can now be used from within fakeAsync tests to simulate moving
time forward until all macrotask events have been cleared from the
event queue.

Added an "origins" section to the flat module `.metadata.json` files
that records where the original symbols was declared. This allows
correctly calculating relative path references recorded in metadata.
This commit fixes a regression where `ngModel` no longer syncs
letter by letter on Android devices, and instead syncs at the
end of every word. This broke when we introduced buffering of
IME events so IMEs like Pinyin keyboards or Katakana keyboards
wouldn't display composition strings. Unfortunately, iOS devices
and Android devices have opposite event behavior. Whereas iOS
devices fire composition events for IME keyboards only, Android
fires composition events for Latin-language keyboards. For
this reason, languages like English don't work as expected on
Android if we always buffer. So to support both platforms,
composition string buffering will only be turned on by default
for non-Android devices.
However, we have also added a `COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE` token
to make this configurable by the application. In some cases, apps
might might still want to receive intermediate values. For example,
some inputs begin searching based on Latin letters before a
character selection is made.
As a provider, this is fairly flexible. If you want to turn
composition buffering off, simply provide the token at the top
level:
```ts
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useValue: false}
]
```
Or, if you want to change the mode based on locale or platform,
you can use a factory:
```ts
import {shouldUseBuffering} from 'my/lib';
....
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useFactory: shouldUseBuffering}
]
```
Closes#15079.
PR Close#15256
This is needed to support the corner cases:
- usage of a `ComponentFactory` that was created on the fly via `Compiler`
- overwriting of the `NgModuleRef` that is associated to a
`ComponentFactory` by the `ComponentFactoryResolver` from
which it was read.
Fixes#15241
The Router use the type `Params` for all of:
- position parameters,
- matrix parameters,
- query parameters.
`Params` is defined as follow `type Params = {[key: string]: any}`
Because parameters can either have single or multiple values, the type should
actually be `type Params = {[key: string]: string | string[]}`.
The client code often assumes that parameters have single values, as in the
following exemple:
```
class MyComponent {
sessionId: Observable<string>;
constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.sessionId = this.route
.queryParams
.map(params => params['session_id'] || 'None');
}
}
```
The problem here is that `params['session_id']` could be `string` or `string[]`
but the error is not caught at build time because of the `any` type.
Fixing the type as describe above would break the build because `sessionId`
would becomes an `Observable<string | string[]>`.
However the client code knows if it expects a single or multiple values. By
using the new `ParamMap` interface the user code can decide when it needs a
single value (calling `ParamMap.get(): string`) or multiple values (calling
`ParamMap.getAll(): string[]`).
The above exemple should be rewritten as:
```
class MyComponent {
sessionId: Observable<string>;
constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) {}
ngOnInit() {
this.sessionId = this.route
.queryParamMap
.map(paramMap => paramMap.get('session_id') || 'None');
}
}
```
Added APIs:
- `interface ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRoute.paramMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRoute.queryParamMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRouteSnapshot.paramMap: ParamMap`,
- `ActivatedRouteSnapshot.queryParamMap: ParamMap`,
- `UrlSegment.parameterMap: ParamMap`
DEPRECATION:
- the arguments `inputs` / `outputs` / `ngContentSelectors` of `downgradeComponent`
are no longer used as Angular calculates these automatically now.
- Compiler.getNgContentSelectors is deprecated. Use
ComponentFactory.ngContentSelectors instead.
ErrorHandler can not throw errors because it will unsubscribe itself from
the error stream.
Zones captures errors and feed it into NgZone, which than has a Rx Observable
to feed it into ErrorHandler. If the ErroHandler throws, then Rx will teardown
the observable which in essence causes the ErrorHandler to be removed from the
error handling. This implies that the ErrorHandler can never throw errors.
Closes#14949Closes#15182Closes#14316
Update tsickle to version 0.21.6 which fixes a bug where input source maps which specified filenames differently than the names supplied to tsc didn't get composed with tsc's source maps. Also adds a test that the bug was fixed.
Observable subscriptions from previous validation runs should be canceled
before a new subscription is created for the next validation run.
Currently the subscription that sets the errors is canceled properly,
but the source observable created by the validator is not. While this
does not affect validation status or error setting, the source
observables will incorrectly continue through the pipeline until they
complete. This change ensures that the whole stream is canceled.
AsyncValidatorFn previously had an "any" return type, but now it more
explicitly requires a Promise or Observable return type. We don't
anticipate this causing problems given that any other return type
would have caused a runtime error already.
DEPRECATION:
- the arguments `inputs` / `outputs` / `ngContentSelectors` of `downgradeComponent`
are no longer used as Angular calculates these automatically now.
- Compiler.getNgContentSelectors is deprecated. Use
ComponentFactory.ngContentSelectors instead.
In order for tsickle's new support for input source maps to work, the tsickleCompilerHost must be used for the initial load of source files, since that's when the inline source maps are read and stripped.
