This change adds a syntax for bootstrapping Angular on a page that allows more fine-grained control of the hierarchy created. platform() creates a platform injector (of which there can only be one). From the platform, .application() creates an Angular application including a Zone and all specified application bindings (e.g. for the DOM, HTTP, Compiler, Renderer, etc). At the application level, .bootstrap() will bootstrap the given component into that application.
Closes#3852
This change moves many APIs to the angular2/core export.
This change also automatically adds FORM_BINDINGS in
the application root injector.
BREAKING CHANGE:
Many dependencies that were previously exported from specific
APIs are now exported from angular2/core. Affected exports, which
should now be included from angular2/core include:
angular2/forms
angular2/di
angular2/directives
angular2/change_detection
angular2/bootstrap (except for dart users)
angular2/render
angular2/metadata
angular2/debug
angular2/pipes
Closes#3977
Instead of working with finer grained element injectors, queries now
iterate through the views as static units of modification of the
application structure. Views already contain element injectors in the
correct depth-first preorder.
This allows us to remove children linked lists on element injectors and a
lot of book keeping that is already present at the view level.
Queries are recalculated using the afterContentChecked and
afterViewChecked hooks, only during init and after a view container has
changed.
BREAKING CHANGE:
ViewQuery no longer supports the descendants flag. It queries the whole
component view by default.
Closes#3973
BREAKING CHANGE
Previously a content binding of a component was visible to the directives in its view with the host constraint. This is not the case any more. To access that binding, remove the constraint.
When running in Dartium without using transformers (i.e. with a normal
static web server), handle relative template URLs. This works by using
mirrors to get the URL of the library where the component class is
defined.
Closes#2771Closes#3743
Ensure that values passed to `DomRenderer#setElementAttribute` are
strings. Currently, booleans can be passed to this method, resulting in
failures when running in Dart checked mode.
Currently the transformer generates all getters and setters even when
creating pre-generated change detectors, which remove the need for them.
Generate getters and setters via the model provided by `ProtoViewDto`,
which contains enough information to allow omitting unnecessary getters
and setters from code output.
Allow generating getters, setters, and method names which are Dart
pseudo keywords.
Closes#3489
Changed 'foctary' to 'factory'.
I wanted to change `{@link AppViewManager#createViewInContainer}` to `{@link AppViewManager#createViewInContainer}#createViewInContainer` and `{@link AppViewManager#createRootHostView}` to `{@link AppViewManager#createRootHostView}#createRootHostView` for readibility (see https://angular.io/docs/js/latest/api/core/ProtoViewRef-class.html it shows `AppViewManager and AppViewManager`). But I'm not sure if that'll work so I'm just going with the typo.
Closes#3677
BREAKING CHANGE (maybe)
Well as long as our customers use public API this should not be a
breaking change, but we have changed import structure as well as
internal names, so it could be breaking.
import:
angular2/annotations => angular2/metadata
Classes:
*Annotations => *Metadata
renderer.DirectiveMetadata => renderer.RendererDirectiveMetadata
renderer.ElementBinder => renderer.RendererElementBinder
