migrate aio to eslint as tslint has been deprecated, the migration is restricted to the aio app and its e2e tests and does not include the other tools, for such reason both tslint and codelyzer have not been removed (to be done in a next PR) some minor tweaks needed to be applied to the code so that it would adhere to the new ESLinting behaviour most TSLint rules have been substituted with their ESLint equivalent, with some exceptions: * [whitespace] does not have an ESLint equivalent (suggested to be handled by prettier) * [import-spacing] does not have an ESLint equivalent (suggested to be handled by prettier) * [ban] replaced with [no-restricted-syntax] as there is no (official/included) ESLint equivalent some rules have minor different behaviours compared to their TSLint counterparts: * @typescript-eslint/naming-convention: - typescript-eslint does not enforce uppercase for const only. * @typescript-eslint/no-unused-expressions: - The TSLint optional config "allow-new" is the default ESLint behavior and will no longer be ignored. * arrow-body-style: - ESLint will throw an error if the function body is multiline yet has a one-line return on it. * eqeqeq: - Option "smart" allows for comparing two literal values, evaluating the value of typeof and null comparisons. * no-console: - Custom console methods, if they exist, will no longer be allowed. * no-invalid-this: - Functions in methods will no longer be ignored. * no-underscore-dangle: - Leading and trailing underscores (_) on identifiers will now be ignored. * prefer-arrow/prefer-arrow-functions: - ESLint does not support allowing standalone function declarations. - ESLint does not support allowing named functions defined with the function keyword. * space-before-function-paren: - Option "constructor" is not supported by ESLint. - Option "method" is not supported by ESLint. additional notes: * the current typescript version used by the aio app is 4.3.5, which is not supported by typescript-eslint (the supported versions are >=3.3.1 and <4.3.0). this causes a warning message to appear during linting, this issue should likely/hopefully disappear in the future as typescript-eslint catches up * The new "no-console" rule is not completely equivalent to what we had prior the migration, this is because TSLint's "no-console" rule let you specify the methods you did not want to allow, whilst ESLint's "no-console" lets you specify the methods that you do want to allow, so and in order not to have a very long list of methods in the ESLint rule it's been decided for the time being to simply only allow the "log", "warn" and "error" methods * 4 dependencies have been added as they have been considered necessary (see: https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/42820#discussion_r669978232) extra: * the migration has been performed by following: https://github.com/angular-eslint/angular-eslint#migrating-an-angular-cli-project-from-codelyzer-and-tslin * more on typescript-eslint at: https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint PR Close #42820 |

Angular documentation project (https://angular.io)
Everything in this folder is part of the documentation project. This includes
- the web site for displaying the documentation
- the dgeni configuration for converting source files to rendered files that can be viewed in the web site.
- the tooling for setting up examples for development; and generating live-example and zip files from the examples.
Developer tasks
We use Yarn to manage the dependencies and to run build tasks.
You should run all these tasks from the angular/aio
folder.
Here are the most important tasks you might need to use:
-
yarn
- install all the dependencies. -
yarn setup
- install all the dependencies, boilerplate, stackblitz, zips and run dgeni on the docs. -
yarn setup-local
- same assetup
, but build the Angular packages from the source code and use these locally built versions (instead of the ones fetched from npm) for aio and docs examples boilerplate. -
yarn build
- create a production build of the application (after installing dependencies, boilerplate, etc). -
yarn build-local
- same asbuild
, but usesetup-local
instead ofsetup
. -
yarn start
- run a development web server that watches the files; then builds the doc-viewer and reloads the page, as necessary. -
yarn serve-and-sync
- run both thedocs-watch
andstart
in the same console. -
yarn lint
- check that the doc-viewer code follows our style rules. -
yarn test
- watch all the source files, for the doc-viewer, and run all the unit tests when any change. -
yarn test --watch=false
- run all the unit tests once. -
yarn e2e
- run all the e2e tests for the doc-viewer. -
yarn docs
- generate all the docs from the source files. -
yarn docs-watch
- watch the Angular source and the docs files and run a short-circuited doc-gen for the docs that changed. -
yarn docs-lint
- check that the doc gen code follows our style rules. -
yarn docs-test
- run the unit tests for the doc generation code. -
yarn boilerplate:add
- generate all the boilerplate code for the examples, so that they can be run locally. -
yarn boilerplate:remove
- remove all the boilerplate code that was added viayarn boilerplate:add
. -
yarn create-example
- create a new example directory containing initial source files. -
yarn generate-stackblitz
- generate the stackblitz files that are used by thelive-example
tags in the docs. -
yarn generate-zips
- generate the zip files from the examples. Zip available via thelive-example
tags in the docs. -
yarn example-e2e
- run all e2e tests for examples. Available options:--setup
: generate boilerplate, force webdriver update & other setup, then run tests.--local
: run e2e tests with the local version of Angular contained in the "dist" folder. Requires--setup
in order to take effect.--filter=foo
: limit e2e tests to those containing the word "foo".
Note for Windows users
Setting up the examples involves creating some symbolic links (see here for details). On Windows, this requires to either have Developer Mode enabled (supported on Windows 10 or newer) or run the setup commands as administrator.
The affected commands are:
yarn setup
/yarn setup-*
yarn build
/yarn build-*
yarn boilerplate:add
yarn example-e2e --setup
Using ServiceWorker locally
Running yarn start
(even when explicitly targeting production mode) does not set up the
ServiceWorker. If you want to test the ServiceWorker locally, you can use yarn build
and then
serve the files in dist/
with yarn http-server dist -p 4200
.
Guide to authoring
There are two types of content in the documentation:
-
API docs: descriptions of the modules, classes, interfaces, decorators, etc that make up the Angular platform. API docs are generated directly from the source code. The source code is contained in TypeScript files, located in the
angular/packages
folder. Each API item may have a preceding comment, which contains JSDoc style tags and content. The content is written in markdown. -
Other content: guides, tutorials, and other marketing material. All other content is written using markdown in text files, located in the
angular/aio/content
folder. More specifically, there are sub-folders that contain particular types of content: guides, tutorial and marketing. -
Code examples: code examples need to be testable to ensure their accuracy. Also, our examples have a specific look and feel and allow the user to copy the source code. For larger examples they are rendered in a tabbed interface (e.g. template, HTML, and TypeScript on separate tabs). Additionally, some are live examples, which provide links where the code can be edited, executed, and/or downloaded. For details on working with code examples, please read the Code snippets, Source code markup, and Live examples pages of the Authors Style Guide.
We use the dgeni tool to convert these files into docs that can be viewed in the doc-viewer.
The Authors Style Guide prescribes guidelines for writing guide pages, explains how to use the documentation classes and components, and how to markup sample source code to produce code snippets.
Generating the complete docs
The main task for generating the docs is yarn docs
. This will process all the source files (API and other),
extracting the documentation and generating JSON files that can be consumed by the doc-viewer.
Partial doc generation for editors
Full doc generation can take up to one minute. That's too slow for efficient document creation and editing.
You can make small changes in a smart editor that displays formatted markdown:
In VS Code, Cmd-K, V opens markdown preview in side pane; Cmd-B toggles left sidebar
You also want to see those changes displayed properly in the doc viewer with a quick, edit/view cycle time.
For this purpose, use the yarn docs-watch
task, which watches for changes to source files and only
re-processes the files necessary to generate the docs that are related to the file that has changed.
Since this task takes shortcuts, it is much faster (often less than 1 second) but it won't produce full
fidelity content. For example, links to other docs and code examples may not render correctly. This is
most particularly noticed in links to other docs and in the embedded examples, which may not always render
correctly.
The general setup is as follows:
- Open a terminal, ensure the dependencies are installed; run an initial doc generation; then start the doc-viewer:
yarn setup
yarn start
- Open a second terminal and start watching the docs
yarn docs-watch
Alternatively, try the consolidated
serve-and-sync
command that builds, watches and serves in the same terminal window
yarn serve-and-sync
-
Open a browser at https://localhost:4200/ and navigate to the document on which you want to work. You can automatically open the browser by using
yarn start -o
in the first terminal. -
Make changes to the page's associated doc or example files. Every time a file is saved, the doc will be regenerated, the app will rebuild and the page will reload.
-
If you get a build error complaining about examples or any other odd behavior, be sure to consult the Authors Style Guide.
