Updates to rules_nodejs 2.2.0. This is the first major release in 7 months and includes a number of features as well
as breaking changes.
Release notes: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/releases/tag/2.0.0
Features of note for angular/angular:
* stdout/stderr/exit code capture; this could be potentially be useful
* TypeScript (ts_project); a simpler tsc rule that ts_library that can be used in the repo where ts_library is too
heavy weight
Breaking changes of note for angular/angular:
* loading custom rules from npm packages: `ts_library` is no longer loaded from `@npm_bazel_typescript//:index.bzl`
(which no longer exists) but is now loaded from `@npm//@bazel/typescript:index.bzl`
* with the loading changes above, `load("@npm//:install_bazel_dependencies.bzl", "install_bazel_dependencies")` is
no longer needed in the WORKSPACE which also means that yarn_install does not need to run unless building/testing
a target that depends on @npm. In angular/angular this is a minor improvement as almost everything depends on @npm.
* @angular/bazel package is also updated in this PR to support the new load location; Angular + Bazel users that
require it for ng_package (ng_module is no longer needed in OSS with Angular 10) will need to load from
`@npm//@angular/bazel:index.bzl`. I investigated if it was possible to maintain backward compatability for the old
load location `@npm_angular_bazel` but it is not since the package itself needs to be updated to load from
`@npm//@bazel/typescript:index.bzl` instead of `@npm_bazel_typescript//:index.bzl` as it depends on ts_library
internals for ng_module.
* runfiles.resolve will now throw instead of returning undefined to match behavior of node require
Other changes in angular/angular:
* integration/bazel has been updated to use both ng_module and ts_libary with use_angular_plugin=true.
The latter is the recommended way for rules_nodejs users to compile Angular 10 with Ivy. Bazel + Angular ViewEngine is
supported with @angular/bazel <= 9.0.5 and Angular <= 8. There is still Angular ViewEngine example on rules_nodejs
https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/tree/stable/examples/angular_view_engine on these older versions but users
that want to update to Angular 10 and are on Bazel must switch to Ivy and at that point ts_library with
use_angular_plugin=true is more performant that ng_module. Angular example in rules_nodejs is configured this way
as well: https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/tree/stable/examples/angular. As an aside, we also have an
example of building Angular 10 with architect() rule directly instead of using ts_library with angular plugin:
https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_nodejs/tree/stable/examples/angular_bazel_architect.
NB: ng_module is still required for angular/angular repository as it still builds ViewEngine & @angular/bazel
also provides the ng_package rule. ng_module can be removed in the future if ViewEngine is no longer needed in
angular repo.
* JSModuleInfo provider added to ng_module. this is for forward compat for future rules_nodejs versions.
@josephperrott, this touches `packages/bazel/src/external.bzl` which will make the sync to g3 non-trivial.
PR Close#37727
Adds an ng-dev formatter option to format all of the staged files. This will can
be used to format only the staged files during the pre-commit hook.
PR Close#38402
Migrate the formatting tool in ng-dev to use new logging system rather
than directly calling console.* to create a better experience
for users.
PR Close#37232
Introduces infrastructure to validate configuration of the ng-dev
command at run time. Allowing for errors to be returned to the
user running the command.
PR Close#37049
As per our discussion in the dev-infra sync meeting, we don't want
to have all dependencies show up as peer dependencies. Instead, we
only want to have larger dependencies such as `typescript` or buildifier
as peer dependencies. Tslib is also included for the sake of it being
generally a peer dependency of all Angular framework packages.
The rationale is that Yarn is smart enough to collapse packages
if all satisfy a given range. This means that we don't necessarily
need to have all dependencies as peer dependencies. The initial
idea was to keep all dependencies as peer dependencies so that
we have control over duplication of packages as downloading multiple
packages w/ different versions impacts local dev, CI and caches.
At the same time though, we don't want to bother with setting
up peer dependencies all the time. Not every consumer of the
shared dev-infra package would like to manually specify `yaml`
or `multimatch` etc. in the project `package.json`. Hence we
decided to go with a hybrid approach where only more impactful
dependencies are peer dependencies, and other smaller ones can
be standard depdencies that are usually collapsed by Yarn anyway.
Also this commit removes tslib from build targets that don't
rely on it.
PR Close#36980
Migrates away from inline searching for files and running buildifier
directly, instead using ng-dev for formatting. Additionally, provides
a deprecation message for any usages of the previous commands.
PR Close#36842
In an effort to centralize formatting and linting enforcement into one
location, buildifier is being added as a formatter for ng-dev's format
command. Allowing for format enforcement for all .bzl, .bazel, WORKSPACE
and BUILD files.
PR Close#36842
Previously we used gulp to run our formatter, currently clang-format,
across our repository. This new tool within ng-dev allows us to
migrate away from our gulp based solution as our gulp solution had
issue with memory pressure and would cause OOM errors with too large
of change sets.
