Tim Blasi e889ec8335 refactor(dart/transform): Use a protobufs representation during transform To simplify processing and testing in the future, use protobufs to represent of `.ng_deps.dart` files rather than always dealing directly in Dart code. This update does not actually use the protobuf representation, but this is a step towards moving all phases to parse and use protobufs rather than Dart code.		2015-09-15 08:39:07 -07:00

README.md

This directory contains pure Dart packages that use standard pub layout.

Working with an existing package

Run gulp build.dart
Open the package in any Dart IDE of your choice
Tada!

You do not need to rerun step 1 if you are only making changes in modules_dart. However, you do need to run it again after you make a change in modules. This is because these packages depend on code inside the dist directory via dependency_overrides. Code in modules need to be transpiled into dist before the IDE can "feel" your changes in modules.

Creating a new package

Create a new directory with its own pubspec.yaml and standard pub layout.
Add both a normal dependency on angular2 and a dependency_overrides, like this:

version: 0.0.0
dependencies:
  angular2: '0.0.0'
dependency_overrides:
  angular2:
    path: ../../dist/dart/angular2

The publishing script will automatically rewrite version numbers, so use 0.0.0 both for your package and angular2 version. Similarly, do not include authors and homepage, as they will be auto-populated. However, do provide description, name (prefixed with angular2_), dependencies, and dev_dependencies.
