# Angular.io
|
|
Angular.io is site for Angular 2 **documentation** .
|
|
|
|
This site also includes links to other helpful angular resources including
|
|
Angular 2, Angular 1, Angular Material, and AngularFire.
|
|
|
|
## Issues
|
|
|
|
Please file **Developer Guide, Cookbook, and code sample issues _only_** in this
|
|
[Angular.io](https://github.com/angular/angular.io/issues) github repo.
|
|
|
|
**Angular API issues, cheatsheet corrections, feature requests, defect reports, and technical questions** concerning Angular itself
|
|
belong in the [**angular source code**](https://github.com/angular/angular/issues) github repo.
|
|
We can't handle those topics here and will ask you to re-post them on the angular repo.
|
|
|
|
## How you can help
|
|
|
|
Filing issues is helpful but **pull requests** that improve the docs are even better!
|
|
|
|
Learn how to [contribute to Angular.io](https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).
|
|
|
|
## Development Setup
|
|
This site relies heavily on node and npm.
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure you are using the latest node and npm;
|
|
if not install [nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm) to get node going on your machine.
|
|
|
|
1. install these npm packages *globally*: `npm install -g harp gulp protractor`
|
|
|
|
1. clone this repo and the [angular source code repo](https://github.com/angular/angular) to the same parent directory.
|
|
The two cloned repo directories must be sibling.
|
|
|
|
1. cd into root directory `Angular.io/`
|
|
|
|
1. install local packages by running `npm install`
|
|
|
|
## Content Development
|
|
All documentation content is written in Jade which has [its own syntax](http://jade-lang.com/reference/).
|
|
Be aware of the strict demands imposed by this significant-whitespace language.
|
|
We strongly recommend running one of the gulp `serve-and-sync` commands [described below](#serve-and-sync)
|
|
while editing content so you can see the effect of your changes *as you type*.
|
|
|
|
The documentation relies on specific styles and mixins.
|
|
Learn about those in the [documentation styleguide](https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/styleguide.html).
|
|
|
|
The jade documentation files are language-specific directories under either `public/docs/`.
|
|
For example, all of the TypeScript docs are in `public/docs/ts/latest`, e.g.
|
|
- `public/docs/ts/latest/quickstart.jade`
|
|
- `public/docs/ts/latest/guide/architecture.jade`
|
|
- `public/docs/ts/latest/cookbook/component-communication.jade`
|
|
- `public/docs/ts/latest/tutorial/toh-pt5.jade`
|
|
|
|
### Local server with watches and browser reload
|
|
1. cd into root directory `Angular.io/`
|
|
1. run `gulp serve-and-sync`
|
|
1. browser will launch on localhost:3000 and stay refreshed automatically.
|
|
|
|
<a id="serve-and-sync"></a>
|
|
If you are only going to work on a specific part of the docs, such as the dev guide, then you can use one of the more specific gulp tasks to only watch those parts of the file system:
|
|
|
|
* `gulp serve-and-sync` : watch all the local Jade/Sass files, the API source and examples, and the dev guide files
|
|
* `gulp serve-and-sync-api-docs` : watch only the API source and example files
|
|
* `gulp serve-and-sync-devguide` : watch only the dev guide files
|
|
* `gulp build-and-serve` : watch only the local Jade/Sass files
|
|
|
|
## Code Sample Development
|
|
|
|
All documentation is supported by sample code and plunkers.
|
|
Such code resides in the `public/docs/_examples` directory, under chapter-specific directories, further divided by language track.
|
|
|
|
For example, the TypeScript QuickStart sample is in `public/docs/_examples/quickstart/ts`.
|
|
|
|
All samples are in a consistent directory structure using the same styles and the same npm packages, including the latest release of Angular 2.
|
|
This consistency is possible in part thanks to gulp-driven tooling.
|
|
To run the samples locally and confirm that they work properly,
|
|
take the following extra steps to prepare the environment:
|
|
|
|
1. cd to `public/docs/_examples`
|
|
|
|
1. install the canonical node packages for all samples by running `npm install`
|
|
|
|
1. cd back up to `Angular.io` root.
|
|
|
|
1. run `gulp add-example-boilerplate` (elevate to admin on windows)
|
|
to copy canonical files to the sample directories and create symlinks there for node_modules and typings.
|
|
|
|
Now cd into any particular sample's language directory (e.g., `public/docs/_examples/quickstart/ts`) and try:
|
|
- `npm start` to simultaneously compile-with-watch and serve-in-browser-with-watch
|
|
- `npm run tsc` to compile only
|
|
- `npm run lite` to serve-and-watch in browser
|
|
|
|
Look at the scripts in `package.json` for other options.
|
|
Also, open any `plunkr.no-link.html` to see the code execute in plunker
|
|
(you may have to run `gulp build-plunkers` first to create/update).
|
|
|
|
### Sample end-to-end tests
|
|
|
|
All samples should be covered to some degree by end-to-end tests.
|
|
|
|
Run them yourself: `gulp run-e2e-tests`.
|
|
|
