|
|
|
|
This document describes how to set up your development environment to build and test Angular.
|
|
It also explains the basic mechanics of using `git`, `node`, and `yarn`.

See the [contribution guidelines](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
|
|
if you'd like to contribute to Angular.
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite Software
|
|
|
|
Before you can build and test Angular, you must install and configure the
|
|
following products on your development machine:
|
|
|
|
* [Git](http://git-scm.com) and/or the **GitHub app** (for [Mac](http://mac.github.com) or
|
|
[Windows](http://windows.github.com)); [GitHub's Guide to Installing
|
|
Git](https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git) is a good source of information.
|
|
|
|
* [Node.js](http://nodejs.org), (version specified in the engines field of [`package.json`](../package.json)) which is used to run a development web server,
|
|
run tests, and generate distributable files.
|
|
|
|
* [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com) (version specified in the engines field of [`package.json`](../package.json)) which is used to install dependencies.
|
|
|
|
* [Java Development Kit](https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html) which is used
|
|
to execute the selenium standalone server for e2e testing.
|
|
|
|
## Getting the Sources
|
|
|
|
Fork and clone the Angular repository:
|
|
|
|
1. Login to your GitHub account or create one by following the instructions given
|
|
[here](https://github.com/signup/free).
|
|
2. [Fork](http://help.github.com/forking) the [main Angular
|
|
repository](https://github.com/angular/angular).
|
|
3. Clone your fork of the Angular repository and define an `upstream` remote pointing back to
|
|
the Angular repository that you forked in the first place.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Clone your GitHub repository:
|
|
git clone git@github.com:<github username>/angular.git
|
|
|
|
# Go to the Angular directory:
|
|
cd angular
|
|
|
|
# Add the main Angular repository as an upstream remote to your repository:
|
|
git remote add upstream https://github.com/angular/angular.git
|
|
```
|
|
## Installing NPM Modules
|
|
|
|
Next, install the JavaScript modules needed to build and test Angular:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Install Angular project dependencies (package.json)
|
|
yarn install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
To build Angular run:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
./scripts/build-packages-dist.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Results are put in the `dist/packages-dist` folder.
|
|
|
|
## Running Tests Locally
|
|
|
|
Bazel is used as the primary tool for building and testing Angular. Building and testing is
|
|
incremental with Bazel, and it's possible to only run tests for an individual package instead
|
|
of for all packages. Read more about this in the [BAZEL.md](./BAZEL.md) document.
|
|
|
|
You should execute all test suites before submitting a PR to GitHub:
|
|
- `yarn bazel test packages/...`
|
|
|
|
**Note**: The first test run will be much slower than future runs. This is because future runs will
|
|
benefit from Bazel's capability to do incremental builds.
|
|
|
|
All the tests are executed on our Continuous Integration infrastructure. PRs can only be
|
|
merged if the code is formatted properly and all tests are passing.
|
|
|
|
## <a name="clang-format"></a> Formatting your source code
|
|
|
|
Angular uses [clang-format](http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html) to format the source code.
|
|
If the source code is not properly formatted, the CI will fail and the PR cannot be merged.
|
|
|
|
You can automatically format your code by running:
|
|
- `yarn gulp format`: re-format only edited source code.
|
|
- `yarn gulp format:all`: format _all_ source code
|
|
|
|
A better way is to set up your IDE to format the changed file on each file save.
|
|
|
|
### VS Code
|
|
1. Install [Clang-Format](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=xaver.clang-format) extension for VS Code.
|
|
2. It will automatically pick up the settings from `.vscode/settings.json`.
|
|
If you haven't already, create a `settings.json` file by following the instructions [here](../.vscode/README.md).
|
|
|
|
### WebStorm / IntelliJ
|
|
1. Install the [ClangFormatIJ](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8396-clangformatij) plugin
|
|
1. Open `Preferences->Tools->clang-format`
|
|
1. Find the field named "PATH"
|
|
1. Add `<PATH_TO_YOUR_WORKSPACE>/angular/node_modules/clang-format/bin/<OS>/`
|
|
where the OS options are: `darwin_x64`, `linux_x64`, and `win32`.
|
|
|
|
### Vim
|
|
1. Install [Vim Clang-Format](https://github.com/rhysd/vim-clang-format).
|
|
2. Create a [project-specific `.vimrc`](https://andrew.stwrt.ca/posts/project-specific-vimrc/) in
|
|
your Angular directory containing
|
|
|
|
```vim
|
|
let g:clang_format#command = '$ANGULAR_PATH/node_modules/.bin/clang-format'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where `$ANGULAR_PATH` is an environment variable of the absolute path of your Angular directory.
|
|
|
|
## Linting/verifying your source code
|
|
|
|
You can check that your code is properly formatted and adheres to coding style by running:
|
|
|
|
``` shell
|
|
$ yarn gulp lint
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Publishing snapshot builds
|
|
|
|
When a build of any branch on the upstream fork angular/angular is green on CircleCI,
|
|
it automatically publishes build artifacts
|
|
to repositories in the Angular org, eg. the `@angular/core` package is published to
|
|
http://github.com/angular/core-builds.
|
|
|
|
You may find that your un-merged change needs some validation from external participants.
|
|
Rather than requiring them to pull your Pull Request and build Angular locally, you can
|
|
publish the `*-builds` snapshots just like our CircleCI build does.
|
|
|
|
First time, you need to create the GitHub repositories:
|
|
|
|
``` shell
|
|
$ export TOKEN=[get one from https://github.com/settings/tokens]
|
|
$ CREATE_REPOS=1 ./scripts/ci/publish-build-artifacts.sh [GitHub username]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For subsequent snapshots, just run
|
|
|
|
``` shell
|
|
$ ./scripts/ci/publish-build-artifacts.sh [GitHub username]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The script will publish the build snapshot to a branch with the same name as your current branch,
|
|
and create it if it doesn't exist.
|
|
|
|
## Bazel support
|
|
### VS Code
|
|
|
|
1. Install [Bazel](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DevonDCarew.bazel-code) extension for VS Code.
|
|
|
|
### WebStorm / IntelliJ
|
|
1. Install the [Bazel](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8609-bazel) plugin
|
|
1. You can find the settings under `Preferences->Other Settings->Bazel Settings`
|
|
|
|
It will automatically recognize `*.bazel` and `*.bzl` files.
