Angular2 templates are now case sensitive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Where you used to write:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<my-cmp (some-event)="someAction()" [some-property]="expression" #some-var>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
in order to:
|
||||||
|
- bind to the `someEvent` event,
|
||||||
|
- bind to the `someProperty` property,
|
||||||
|
- create a `someVar` local variable
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should now write:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<my-cmp (someEvent)="someAction()" [someProperty]="expression" #someVar>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Notes:
|
||||||
|
- while tag name are case sensitive, the best practice is to use dash case for component elements so that the browser
|
||||||
|
interpret them as custom elements,
|
||||||
|
- `(some-event)` would now bind to the `some-event` event (i.e. there is no implicit dash to camel case conversion),
|
||||||
|
- `(some-property)` would now bind to the `some-property` property (i.e. there is no implicit dash to camel case conversion),
|
||||||
|
- `#some-var` is not allowed any more ("-" can not be used in variable names).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Migration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Templates
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Directives selectors, property bindings, event bindings, template variables and template element attributes should be changed to camel case:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Examples:
|
||||||
|
- `<p *ng-if="cond">` should be changed to `<p *ngIf="cond">`,
|
||||||
|
- `<my-cmp [my-prop]="exp">` should be changed to `<my-cmp [myProp]="exp">`,
|
||||||
|
- `<my-cmp (my-event)="action()">` should be changed to `<my-cmp (myEvent)="action()">`,
|
||||||
|
- `<my-cmp [(my-prop)]="prop">` should be changed to `<my-cmp [(myProp)]="prop">`,
|
||||||
|
- `<input #my-input>` should be changed to `<input #myInput>`,
|
||||||
|
- `<template ng-for #my-item [ng-for-of]=items #my-index="index">` should be changed to `<template ngFor="#my-item" [ngForOf]=items #myIndex="index">`,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note: while the tag names are now case sensitive the best practice is to keep them lower dash cased so that the browser
|
||||||
|
treat them as custom elements. This explains why the `<router-outlet>` component is left unchanged.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`on-`, `bindon-`, `bind-` and `var-` prefixes are still part of the canonical syntax and should remain unchanged (lower cased):
|
||||||
|
- `on-some-event` should be changed to `on-someEvent`,
|
||||||
|
- `bind-my-prop` should be changed to `bind-myProp`,
|
||||||
|
- `bindon-my-prop` should be changed to `bindon-myProp`,
|
||||||
|
- `var-my-var` should be changed to `var-myVar`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Update variable binding
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `<p #var1="a-b" var-var2="c-d">` should be changed to `<p #var1="aB" var-var2="cD">`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. The `template` attribute values should also be updated in the same way
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`<p template="ng-for #my-item of items #my-index = index">` should be changed to `<p template="ngFor #myItem of items #myIndex = index">`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that both angular directives and your own directives must be updated in the same way.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### Directives and Components
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Take the following steps to upgrade your directives and components:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Update the selector:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({selector: 'tag[attr][name=value]'})
|
||||||
|
@Component({selector: 'tag[attr][name=value]'})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Tag and attributes names are case sensitive:
|
||||||
|
- For tag names, the best practice is to keep them lower dash cased, do not update them,
|
||||||
|
- For attribute names, the best practice is to convert them from lower dash case to camel case.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Examples:
|
||||||
|
- `custom-tag` should stay `custom-tag` (do not update tag names),
|
||||||
|
- `[attr-name]` should be updated to `[attrName]`,
|
||||||
|
- `[attr-name=someValue]` should be updated to `[attrName=someValue]`,
|
||||||
|
- `custom-tag[attr-name=someValue]` should be updated to `custom-tag[attrName=someValue]`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note: attribute values and classes are still matched case insensitive.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Update the inputs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({inputs: ['myProp', 'myOtherProp: my-attr-name']})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As attribute names are now case sensitive, they should be converted from dash to camel case where they are specified.
|
||||||
|
The previous decorator becomes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({inputs: ['myProp', 'myOtherProp: myAttrName']})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Notes:
|
||||||
|
- only the long syntax (with ":") needs not be updated,
|
||||||
|
- `properties` is the legacy name for `inputs` and should be updated in the same way - it is a good idea to replace
|
||||||
|
`properties` with `inputs` at the same time as support for the former will be removed soon.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The same applies for the `@Input` decorator:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Input() myProp;
|
||||||
|
@Input('my-attr-name') myProp;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That is they only need to be updated when the attribute name is specified:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Input() myProp; // Nothing to update
|
||||||
|
@Input('myAttrName') myProp; // Convert the attribute name to camel case
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Update the outputs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Update the outputs in the same way the inputs are updated:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({outputs: ['myEvent', 'myOtherEvent: my-event-name']})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
should be updated to
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({outputs: ['myEvent', 'myOtherEvent: myEventName']})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you use `events` instead of `outputs` you should update in the same way and switch to `outputs` as `events` is deprecated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Output() myEvent;
|
||||||
|
@Output('my-event-name') myEvent;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
should be changed to
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Output() myEvent;
|
||||||
|
@Output('myEventName') myEvent;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Update the host bindings
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({
|
||||||
|
host: {
|
||||||
|
'[some-prop]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'[style.background-color]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'[class.some-class]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'(some-event)': 'action()',
|
||||||
|
'some-attr': 'value'
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
should be changed to:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({
|
||||||
|
host: {
|
||||||
|
'[someProp]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'[style.background-color]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'[class.some-class]': 'exp',
|
||||||
|
'(someEvent)': 'action()',
|
||||||
|
'some-attr': 'value'
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The property bindings (`[...]`) and event bindings (`(...)`) must be updated in the same way as they are updated in a
|
||||||
|
template (reminder: `[attr.]`, `[class.]` and `[style.]` should not be converted to camel case).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Update export name
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({
|
||||||
|
exportAs: 'some-name'
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
should be changed to
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@Directive({
|
||||||
|
exportAs: 'someName'
|
||||||
|
})
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
