By pulling in `compiler` into `core` the `compiler` was not
100% tree-shakable and about 8KB of code was retained
when tree-shaken with closure.
PR Close#25531
A long time ago Angular used to support both those attribute notations:
- `*attr='binding'`
- `template=`attr: binding`
Because the last notation has been dropped we can refactor the binding parsing.
Source maps will benefit from that as no `attr:` prefix is added artificialy any
more.
PR Close#23460
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `<template>` tag was deprecated in Angular v4 to avoid collisions (i.e. when
using Web Components).
This commit removes support for `<template>`. `<ng-template>` should be used
instead.
BEFORE:
<!-- html template -->
<template>some template content</template>
# tsconfig.json
{
# ...
"angularCompilerOptions": {
# ...
# This option is no more supported and will have no effect
"enableLegacyTemplate": [true|false]
}
}
AFTER:
<!-- html template -->
<ng-template>some template content</ng-template>
PR Close#22783
This speeds up the compilation process significantly.
Also introduces a new option `fullTemplateTypeCheck` to do more checks in templates:
- check expressions inside of templatized content (e.g. inside of `<div *ngIf>`).
- check the arguments of calls to the `transform` function of pipes
- check references to directives that were exposed as variables via `exportAs`
PR Close#19152
After this, neither @angular/compiler nor @angular/comnpiler-cli depend
on @angular/core.
This add a duplication of some interfaces and enums which is stored
in @angular/compiler/src/core.ts
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `@angular/platform-server` now additionally depends on
`@angular/platform-browser-dynamic` as a peer dependency.
PR Close#18683
This change allows users to specify multiple exportAs names for a
directive by giving a comma-delimited list inside the string.
The primary motivation for this change is to allow these names to be
changed in a backwards compatible way.
The main use case for the generated source maps is to give
errors a meaningful context in terms of the original source
that the user wrote.
Related changes that are included in this commit:
* renamed virtual folders used for jit:
* ng://<module type>/module.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.ngfactory.js
* ng://<module type>/<comp type>.html (for inline templates)
* error logging:
* all errors that happen in templates are logged
from the place of the nearest element.
* instead of logging error messages and stacks separately,
we log the actual error. This is needed so that browsers apply
source maps to the stack correctly.
* error type and error is logged as one log entry.
Note that long-stack-trace zone has a bug that
disables source maps for stack traces,
see https://github.com/angular/zone.js/issues/661.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- DebugNode.source no more returns the source location of a node.
