How to update the CLI boilerplate

The boilerplate is updated by hand so you normally update it every minor version unless there is a major bug to fix.

Getting a new boilerplate

The first thing would be updating the CLI globally

npm i -g @angular/cli

Then create a new dummy project in a temporary folder outside angular

ng new dummy

Now you have a fresh application to get our new boilerplate files.

Updating files

From dummy you can replace the following files into aio/tools/examples/shared/boilerplate/cli:

• .editorconfig
• angular.json
• package.json
• tsconfig.json
• tslint.json
• e2e/src/app.po.ts
• e2e/protractor.conf.js
• e2e/tsconfig.e2e.json
• src/environments/environment.prod.ts
• src/environments/environment.ts
• src/browserslist
• src/favicon.ico
• src/karma.conf.js
• src/polyfills.js
• src/styles.css
• src/test.ts
• src/tsconfig.app.json
• src/tsconfig.spec.json
• src/tslint.json
• src/typings.d.ts

angular.json

Update the project > name to angular.io-example.

package.json

Update the name to angular.io-example.

src/tsconfig.app.json

This file is small enough and there are a few new excludes, update by hand.
