This resolves Duplicate Identifier issues seen by many users,
at the expense of more typings installation required in some
cases.
Removes the quickstart hack of placing all needed dependencies
typings files in our distribution. Removes dependencies on
nodejs from angular2/core.
Fixes#5973Fixes#5807Fixes#6266
Angular now depends on es6-promise and es6-collections
(and a handful of manual typings) rather than all of es6-shim.
Fixes#5242
We previously had an undocumented breaking change, this is now
documented in this commit.
Fixes#6817
BREAKING CHANGE:
Transitive typings are no longer included in the distribution.
You may need to install typings in your project using
http://github.com/typings/typings
Users now must rely on getting typings from:
- one of the peerDependencies, such as rxjs, which exposes
typings via the moduleResolution=node mechanism.
(see https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Typings-for-npm-packages)
This happens automatically.
- Using --target ES5 now requires manual installation of
es6-promise and es6-collections typings.
- Using some angular APIs may introduce a dependency on eg. nodejs
or jasmine, and those typings need manual installation as well.
Closes#6267
Now, using `ng.probe(element)` in the browser console returns
a DebugElement when in dev mode.
`ComponentFixture#debugElement` also returns a new DebugElement.
Breaking Change:
This is a breaking change for unit tests. The API for the DebugElement
has changed. Now, there is a DebugElement or DebugNode for every node
in the DOM, not only nodes with an ElementRef. `componentViewChildren` is
removed, and `childNodes` is a list of ElementNodes corresponding to every
child in the DOM. `query` no longer takes a scope parameter, since
the entire rendered DOM is included in the `childNodes`.
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.componentViewChildren[0];
```
After
```
// Depending on the DOM structure of your component, the
// index may have changed or the first component child
// may be a sub-child.
componentFixture.debugElement.children[0];
```
Before:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'), Scope.all());
```
After:
```
debugElement.query(By.css('div'));
```
Before:
```
componentFixture.debugElement.elementRef;
```
After:
```
componentFixture.elementRef;
```
BEFORE:
The following would throw in the dev mode because `f` would return a new array when called by checkNoChanges.
@Component({
template: `
{{f()}}
`
})
class A {
f() { return [1]; }
}
AFTER:
The checkNoChanges function compares only primitives types for equality, and deeply compares iterables. Other objects cannot cause checkNoChanges to throw. This means that the dev mode would never fail given a legal program, but may allow some illegal programs.
This is needed to prevent memory leaks. The DOM
listeners don’t need to be removed for simple examples,
but a big internal app shows memory leaks because of them.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `Renderer.listen` now has to return a function that
removes the event listener.
Resolve all invalid field override errors, workaround current
reflection limitations in Dart Dev Compiler. todo, hello_world and
key_events samples now work with Dart Dev Compiler.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove TemplateRef.elementRef setter
Closes#6441
BREAKING CHANGE:
- Platform pipes can only contain types and arrays of types,
but no bindings any more.
- When using transformers, platform pipes need to be specified explicitly
in the pubspec.yaml via the new config option
`platform_pipes`.
- `Compiler.compileInHost` now returns a `HostViewFactoryRef`
- Component view is not yet created when component constructor is called.
-> use `onInit` lifecycle callback to access the view of a component
- `ViewRef#setLocal` has been moved to new type `EmbeddedViewRef`
- `internalView` is gone, use `EmbeddedViewRef.rootNodes` to access
the root nodes of an embedded view
- `renderer.setElementProperty`, `..setElementStyle`, `..setElementAttribute` now
take a native element instead of an ElementRef
- `Renderer` interface now operates on plain native nodes,
instead of `RenderElementRef`s or `RenderViewRef`s
Closes#5993
BREAKING CHANGE
Before
Previously Angular would run in dev prod mode by default, and you could enable the dev mode by calling enableDevMode.
After
Now, Angular runs in the dev mode by default, and you can enable the prod mode by calling enableProdMode.
This is used for setting property binding values as attributes
on elements when running in dev mode. This implementation will
also serialize binding information to template placeholder
comment nodes.
Closes#5227
Assets defined for `templateUrl` and `styleUrls` can now be loaded
in relative to where the component file is placed so long as the
`moduleId` is set within the component annotation.

Make `NoReflectionCapabilities` conform to the `PlatformReflectionCapbilities`
api, which prevents some confusing error messages.
Closes#5559Closes#5578
BREAKING CHANGE:
You can no longer bootstrap a WebWorker or Isolate using `bootstrap` or `bootstrapWebWorker`. Instead you have to do the following:
In TypeScript:
```TypeScript
// index.js
import {WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM, WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION, WORKER_SCRIPT} from "angular2/platforms/worker_render";
import {platform} from "angular2/platform";
platform([WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM])
.application([WORKER_RENDER_APPLICATION, new Provider(WORKER_SCRIPT, {useValue: "loader.js"});
```
```JavaScript
// loader.js
importScripts("https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/es6-shim/0.33.3/es6-shim.js", "https://jspm.io/system@0.16.js", "angular2/web_worker/worker.js");
System.import("app");
```
```TypeScript
// app.ts
import {Component, View} from "angular2/core";
import {WORKER_APP_PLATFORM, setupWebWorker} from "angular2/platforms/worker_app";
import {platform} from "angular2/platform";
@Component({
selector: "hello-world"
})
@View({
template: "<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>
})
export class HelloWorld {
name: string = "Jane";
}
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupWebWorker, optionalProviders?)
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
```
In Dart:
```Dart
// index.dart
import "angular2/platform.dart";
import "angular2/platforms/worker_render.dart";
main() {
platform([WORKER_RENDER_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(initIsolate("my_worker.dart"));
}
```
```Dart
// background_index.dart
import "angular2/platform.dart";
import "angular2/platforms/worker_app.dart";
import "package:angular2/src/core/reflection/reflection.dart";
import "package:angular2/src/core/reflection/reflection_capabilities.dart";
@Component(
selector: "hello-world"
)
@View(
template: "<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>"
)
class HelloWorld {
String name = "Jane";
}
main(List<String> args, SendPort replyTo) {
reflector.reflectionCapabilities = new ReflectionCapabilities();
platform([WORKER_APP_PLATFORM])
.asyncApplication(setupIsolate(replyTo))
.then((ref) => ref.bootstrap(RootComponent));
}
```
You should no longer import from the `angular2/web_worker/worker` and `angular2/web_worker/ui` paths. Instead you can now import directly from core, directives, etc..
The WebWorkerApplication class has been removed. If you want to use ServiceMessageBroker or ClientMessageBroker on the render thread, you must inject their factories via DI.
If you need to use the MessageBus on the render thread you must also obtain it through DI.

BREAKING CHANGE:
Previously, pipes that wanted to be notified when they were destroyed
would implement the PipeOnDestroy interface and name the callback
`onDestroy`. This change removes the PipeOnDestroy interface and
instead uses Angular's lifecycle interface `OnDestroy`, with the
`ngOnDestroy` method.
Before:
```
import {Pipe, PipeOnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
onDestroy() {}
}
```
After:
import {Pipe, OnDestroy} from 'angular2/angular2';
@Pipe({pure: false})
export class MyPipe implements PipeOnDestroy {
ngOnDestroy() {}
}
