Angular compiler options

When you use AoT compilation, you can control how your application is compiled by specifying template compiler options in the tsconfig.json TypeScript configuration file.

The template options object, angularCompilerOptions, is a sibling to the compilerOptions object that supplies standard options to the TypeScript compiler.

    {
      "compilerOptions": {
        "experimentalDecorators": true,
                  ...
      },
      "angularCompilerOptions": {
        "fullTemplateTypeCheck": true,
        "preserveWhitespaces": true,
                  ...
      }
  }

{@a tsconfig-extends}

Configuration inheritance with extends

Like the TypeScript compiler, The Angular AoT compiler also supports extends in the angularCompilerOptions section of the TypeScript configuration file, tsconfig.json. The extends property is at the top level, parallel to compilerOptions and angularCompilerOptions.

A TypeScript configuration can inherit settings from another file using the extends property. The configuration options from the base file are loaded first, then overridden by those in the inheriting tsconfig file.

For example:

{
  "extends": "../tsconfig.base.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    ...
  },
  "angularCompilerOptions": {
    "fullTemplateTypeCheck": true,
    "preserveWhitespaces": true,
    ...
  }
}

For more informaton, see the TypeScript Handbook.

Template options

The following options are available for configuring the AoT template compiler.

allowEmptyCodegenFiles

When true, generate all possible files even if they are empty. Default is false. Used by the Bazel build rules to simplify how Bazel rules track file dependencies. Do not use this option outside of the Bazel rules.

annotationsAs

Modifies how Angular-specific annotations are emitted to improve tree-shaking. Non-Angular annotations are not affected. One of static fields (the default) or decorators.

• By default, the compiler replaces decorators with a static field in the class, which allows advanced tree-shakers like Closure compiler to remove unused classes.

• The decorators value leaves the decorators in place, which makes compilation faster. TypeScript emits calls to the __decorate helper. Use --emitDecoratorMetadata for runtime reflection (but note that the resulting code will not properly tree-shake.

annotateForClosureCompiler

When true, use Tsickle to annotate the emitted JavaScript with JSDoc comments needed by the Closure Compiler. Default is false.

disableExpressionLowering

When true (the default), transforms code that is or could be used in an annotation, to allow it to be imported from template factory modules. See metadata rewriting for more information.

When false, disables this rewriting, requiring the rewriting to be done manually.

disableTypeScriptVersionCheck

When true, the compiler does not check the TypeScript version and does not report an error when an unsupported version of TypeScript is used. Not recommended, as unsupported versions of TypeScript might have undefined behavior. Default is false.

enableResourceInlining

When true, replaces the templateUrl and styleUrls property in all @Component decorators with inlined contents in template and styles properties.

When enabled, the .js output of ngc does not include any lazy-loaded template or style URLs.

{@a enablelegacytemplate}

enableLegacyTemplate

When true, enables use of the <template> element, which was deprecated in Angular 4.0, in favor of <ng-template> (to avoid colliding with the DOM's element of the same name). Default is false. Might be required by some third-party Angular libraries. |

flatModuleId

The module ID to use for importing a flat module (when flatModuleOutFile is true). References generated by the template compiler use this module name when importing symbols from the flat module. Ignored if flatModuleOutFile is false.

flatModuleOutFile

When true, generates a flat module index of the given file name and the corresponding flat module metadata. Use to create flat modules that are packaged similarly to @angular/core and @angular/common. When this option is used, the package.json for the library should refer to the generated flat module index instead of the library index file.

Produces only one .metadata.json file, which contains all the metadata necessary for symbols exported from the library index. In the generated .ngfactory.js files, the flat module index is used to import symbols that includes both the public API from the library index as well as shrowded internal symbols.

By default the .ts file supplied in the files field is assumed to be the library index. If more than one .ts file is specified, libraryIndex is used to select the file to use. If more than one .ts file is supplied without a libraryIndex, an error is produced.

A flat module index .d.ts and .js is created with the given flatModuleOutFile name in the same location as the library index .d.ts file.

For example, if a library uses the public_api.ts file as the library index of the module, the tsconfig.json files field would be ["public_api.ts"]. The flatModuleOutFile options could then be set to (for example) "index.js", which produces index.d.ts and index.metadata.json files. The module field of the library's package.json would be "index.js" and the typings field would be "index.d.ts".

fullTemplateTypeCheck

When true (recommended), enables the binding expression validation phase of the template compiler, which uses TypeScript to validate binding expressions.

Default is currently false.

generateCodeForLibraries

When true (the default), generates factory files (.ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js) for .d.ts files with a corresponding .metadata.json file.

When false, factory files are generated only for .ts files. Do this when using factory summaries.

preserveWhitespaces

When false (the default), removes blank text nodes from compiled templates, which results in smaller emitted template factory modules. Set to true to preserve blank text nodes.

skipMetadataEmit

When true, does not to produce .metadata.json files. Default is false.

The .metadata.json files contain information needed by the template compiler from a .ts file that is not included in the .d.ts file produced by the TypeScript compiler. This information includes, for example, the content of annotations (such as a component's template), which TypeScript emits to the .js file but not to the .d.ts file.

You can set to true when using factory summaries, because the factory summaries include a copy of the information that is in the .metadata.json file.

Set to true if you are using TypeScript's --outFile option, because the metadata files are not valid for this style of TypeScript output. However, we do not recommend using --outFile with Angular. Use a bundler, such as webpack, instead.

skipTemplateCodegen

When true, does not emit .ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js files. This turns off most of the template compiler and disables the reporting of template diagnostics.

Can be used to instruct the template compiler to produce .metadata.json files for distribution with an npm package while avoiding the production of .ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js files that cannot be distributed to npm.

strictMetadataEmit

When true, reports an error to the .metadata.json file if "skipMetadataEmit" is false. Default is false. Use only when "skipMetadataEmit" is false and "skipTemplateCodeGen" is true.

This option is intended to validate the .metadata.json files emitted for bundling with an npm package. The validation is strict and can emit errors for metadata that would never produce an error when used by the template compiler. You can choose to suppress the error emitted by this option for an exported symbol by including @dynamic in the comment documenting the symbol.

It is valid for .metadata.json files to contain errors. The template compiler reports these errors if the metadata is used to determine the contents of an annotation. The metadata collector cannot predict the symbols that are designed for use in an annotation, so it preemptively includes error nodes in the metadata for the exported symbols. The template compiler can then use the error nodes to report an error if these symbols are used.

If the client of a library intends to use a symbol in an annotation, the template compiler does not normally report this until the client uses the symbol. This option allows detection of these errors during the build phase of the library and is used, for example, in producing Angular libraries themselves.

strictInjectionParameters

When true (recommended), reports an error for a supplied parameter whose injection type cannot be determined. When false (currently the default), constructor parameters of classes marked with @Injectable whose type cannot be resolved produce a warning.

trace

When true, prints extra information while compiling templates. Default is false.
