Benchpress

Benchpress is a framework for e2e performance tests. See here for an example project.

The sources for this package are in the main Angular repo. Please file issues and pull requests against that repo.

Why?

There are so called "micro benchmarks" that essentially use a stop watch in the browser to measure time (e.g. via performance.now()). This approach is limited to time, and in some cases memory (Chrome with special flags), as metric. It does not allow to measure:

  • rendering time: e.g. the time the browser spends to layout or paint elements. This can e.g. used to test the performance impact of stylesheet changes.
  • garbage collection: e.g. how long the browser paused script execution, and how much memory was collected. This can be used to stabilize script execution time, as garbage collection times are usually very unpredictable. This data can also be used to measure and improve memory usage of applications, as the garbage collection amount directly affects garbage collection time.
  • distinguish script execution time from waiting: e.g. to measure the client side only time that is spent in a complex user interaction, ignoring backend calls.
  • measure fps to assert the smoothness of scrolling and animations.

This kind of data is already available in the DevTools of modern browsers. However, there is no standard way to use those tools in an automated way to measure web app performance, especially not across platforms.

Benchpress tries to fill this gap, i.e. allow to access all kinds of performance metrics in an automated way.

How it works

Benchpress uses webdriver to read out the so called "performance log" of browsers. This contains all kinds of interesting data, e.g. when a script started/ended executing, gc started/ended, the browser painted something to the screen, ...

As browsers are different, benchpress has plugins to normalizes these events.

Features

  • Provides a loop (so called "Sampler") that executes the benchmark multiple times
  • Automatically waits/detects until the browser is "warm"
  • Reporters provide a normalized way to store results:
    • console reporter
    • file reporter
    • Google Big Query reporter (coming soon)
  • Supports micro benchmarks as well via console.time() / console.timeEnd()
    • console.time() / console.timeEnd() mark the timeline in the DevTools, so it makes sense to use them in micro benchmark to visualize and understand them, with or without benchpress.
    • running micro benchmarks in benchpress leverages the already existing reporters, the sampler and the auto warmup feature of benchpress.

Supported browsers

  • Chrome on all platforms
  • Mobile Safari (iOS)
  • Firefox (work in progress)

How to write a benchmark

A benchmark in benchpress is made by an application under test and a benchmark driver. The application under test is the actual application consisting of html/css/js that should be tests. A benchmark driver is a webdriver test that interacts with the application under test.

A simple benchmark

Let's assume we want to measure the script execution time, as well as the render time that it takes to fill a container element with a complex html string.

The application under test could look like this:

index.html:

<button id="reset" onclick="reset()">Reset</button>
<button id="fill" onclick="fill()">fill innerHTML</button>
<div id="container"></div>
<script>
  var container = document.getElementById('container');
  var complexHtmlString = '...'; // TODO

  function reset() { container.innerHTML = ''; }

  function fill() {
    container.innerHTML = complexHtmlString;
  }
</script>

A benchmark driver could look like this:

// A runner contains the shared configuration
// and can be shared across multiple tests.
var runner = new Runner(...);

driver.get('http://myserver/index.html');

var resetBtn = driver.findElement(By.id('reset'));
var fillBtn = driver.findElement(By.id('fill'));

runner.sample({
  id: 'fillElement',
  // Prepare is optional...
  prepare: () {
    resetBtn.click();
  },
  execute: () {
    fillBtn.click();
    // Note: if fillBtn would use some asynchronous code,
    // we would need to wait here for its end.
  }
});

Measuring in the browser

If the application under test would like to, it can measure on its own. E.g.

index.html:

<button id="measure" onclick="measure()">Measure document.createElement</button>
<script>
  function measure() {
    console.time('createElement*10000');
    for (var i=0; i<10000; i++) {
      document.createElement('div');
    }
    console.timeEnd('createElement*10000');
  }
</script>

When the measure button is clicked, it marks the timeline and creates 10000 elements. It uses the special names createElement*10000 to tell benchpress that the time that was measured is for 10000 calls to createElement and that benchpress should take the average for it.

A test driver for this would look like this:

driver.get('.../index.html');

var measureBtn = driver.findElement(By.id('measure'));
runner.sample({
  id: 'createElement test',
  microMetrics: {
    'createElement': 'time to create an element (ms)'
  },
  execute: () {
    measureBtn.click();
  }
});

When looking into the DevTools Timeline, we see a marker as well: Marked Timeline

Custom Metrics Without Using console.time

It's also possible to measure any "user metric" within the browser by setting a numeric value on the window object. For example:

bootstrap(App)
  .then(() => {
    window.timeToBootstrap = Date.now() - performance.timing.navigationStart;
  });

A test driver for this user metric could be written as follows:


describe('home page load', function() {
  it('should log load time for a 2G connection', done => {
    runner.sample({
      execute: () => {
        browser.get(`http://localhost:8080`);
      },
      userMetrics: {
        timeToBootstrap: 'The time in milliseconds to bootstrap'
      },
      providers: [
        {provide: RegressionSlopeValidator.METRIC, useValue: 'timeToBootstrap'}
      ]
    }).then(done);
  });
});

Using this strategy, benchpress will wait until the specified property name, timeToBootstrap in this case, is defined as a number on the window object inside the application under test.

Smoothness Metrics

Benchpress can also measure the "smoothness" of scrolling and animations. In order to do that, the following set of metrics can be collected by benchpress:

  • frameTime.mean: mean frame time in ms (target: 16.6ms for 60fps)
  • frameTime.worst: worst frame time in ms
  • frameTime.best: best frame time in ms
  • frameTime.smooth: percentage of frames that hit 60fps

To collect these metrics, you need to execute console.time('frameCapture') and console.timeEnd('frameCapture') either in your benchmark application or in you benchmark driver via webdriver. The metrics mentioned above will only be collected between those two calls and it is recommended to wrap the time/timeEnd calls as closely as possible around the action you want to evaluate to get accurate measurements.

In addition to that, one extra provider needs to be passed to benchpress in tests that want to collect these metrics:

benchpress.sample(providers: [{provide: bp.Options.CAPTURE_FRAMES, useValue: true}], ... )

Requests Metrics

Benchpress can also record the number of requests sent and count the received "encoded" bytes since window.performance.timing.navigationStart:

  • receivedData: number of bytes received since the last navigation start
  • requestCount: number of requests sent since the last navigation start

To collect these metrics, you need the following corresponding extra providers:

benchpress.sample(providers: [
  {provide: bp.Options.RECEIVED_DATA, useValue: true},
  {provide: bp.Options.REQUEST_COUNT, useValue: true}
], ... )

Best practices

  • Use normalized environments

    • metrics that are dependent on the performance of the execution environment must be executed on a normalized machine
    • e.g. a real mobile device whose cpu frequency is set to a fixed value.
      • see our build script
      • this requires root access, e.g. via a userdebug build of Android on a Google Nexus device (see here and here)
    • e.g. a calibrated machine that does not run background jobs, has a fixed cpu frequency, ...
  • Use relative comparisons

    • relative comparisons are less likely to change over time and help to interpret the results of benchmarks
    • e.g. compare an example written using a ui framework against a hand coded example and track the ratio
  • Assert post-commit for commit ranges

    • running benchmarks can take some time. Running them before every commit is usually too slow.
    • when a regression is detected for a commit range, use bisection to find the problematic commit
  • Repeat benchmarks multiple times in a fresh window

    • run the same benchmark multiple times in a fresh window and then take the minimal average value of each benchmark run
  • Use force gc with care

    • forcing gc can skew the script execution time and gcTime numbers, but might be needed to get stable gc time / gc amount numbers
  • Open a new window for every test

    • browsers (e.g. chrome) might keep JIT statistics over page reloads and optimize pages differently depending on what has been loaded before

Detailed overview

Overview

Definitions:

  • valid sample: a sample that represents the world that should be measured in a good way.
  • complete sample: sample of all measure values collected so far

Components:

  • Runner

    • contains a default configuration
    • creates a new injector for every sample call, via which all other components are created
  • Sampler

    • gets data from the metrics
    • reports measure values immediately to the reporters
    • loops until the validator is able to extract a valid sample out of the complete sample (see below).
    • reports the valid sample and the complete sample to the reporters
  • Metric

    • gets measure values from the browser
    • e.g. reads out performance logs, DOM values, JavaScript values
  • Validator

    • extracts a valid sample out of the complete sample of all measure values.
    • e.g. wait until there are 10 samples and take them as valid sample (would include warmup time)
    • e.g. wait until the regression slope for the metric scriptTime through the last 10 measure values is >=0, i.e. the values for the scriptTime metric are no more decreasing
  • Reporter

    • reports measure values, the valid sample and the complete sample to backends
    • e.g. a reporter that prints to the console, a reporter that reports values into Google BigQuery, ...
  • WebDriverAdapter

    • abstraction over the used web driver client
    • one implementation for every webdriver client E.g. one for selenium-webdriver Node.js module, dart async webdriver, dart sync webdriver, ...
  • WebDriverExtension

    • implements additional methods that are standardized in the webdriver protocol using the WebDriverAdapter
    • provides functionality like force gc, read out performance logs in a normalized format
    • one implementation per browser, e.g. one for Chrome, one for mobile Safari, one for Firefox

Deprecations

  • The CachedResourceLoader and RESOURCE_CACHE_PROVIDER symbols were previously necessary in some cases to test AOT-compiled components with View Engine, but they are no longer needed since Ivy.

  • The ComponentFactory and ComponentFactoryResolver classes are deprecated. Since Ivy, there is no need to resolve Component factories. Please use other APIs where you Component classes can be used directly (without resolving their factories).

  • Since Ivy, the CompilerOptions.useJit and CompilerOptions.missingTranslation config options are unused, passing them has no effect.

13.0.0 (2021-11-03)

Blog post "Angular v13 is now available".

Breaking Changes

common

  • The behavior of the SpyLocation used by the RouterTestingModule has changed to match the behavior of browsers. It no longer emits a 'popstate' event when Location.go is called. In addition, simulateHashChange now triggers both a hashchange and a popstate event. Tests which use location.go and expect the changes to be picked up by the Router should likely change to simulateHashChange instead. Each test is different in what it attempts to assert so there is no single change that works for all tests. Each test using the SpyLocation to simulate browser URL changes should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

    core

  • TypeScript versions older than 4.4.2 are no longer supported.

  • NodeJS versions older than v12.20.0 are no longer supported due to the Angular packages using the NodeJS package exports feature with subpath patterns.

  • The WrappedValue class can no longer be imported from @angular/core, which may result in compile errors or failures at runtime if outdated libraries are used that are still using WrappedValue. The usage of WrappedValue should be removed as no replacement is available.

    forms

  • A new type called FormControlStatus has been introduced, which is a union of all possible status strings for form controls. AbstractControl.status has been narrowed from string to FormControlStatus, and statusChanges has been narrowed from Observable<any> to Observable<FormControlStatus>. Most applications should consume the new types seamlessly. Any breakage caused by this change is likely due to one of the following two problems: (1) the app is comparing AbstractControl.status against a string which is not a valid status; or, (2) the app is using statusChanges events as if they were something other than strings.

    router

  • The default url serializer would previously drop everything after and including a question mark in query parameters. That is, for a navigation to /path?q=hello?&other=123, the query params would be parsed to just {q: 'hello'}. This is incorrect because the URI spec allows for question mark characers in query data. This change will now correctly parse the params for the above example to be {v: 'hello?', other: '123'}.

  • Previously null and undefined inputs for routerLink were equivalent to empty string and there was no way to disable the link's navigation. In addition, the href is changed from a property HostBinding() to an attribute binding (HostBinding('attr.href')). The effect of this change is that DebugElement.properties['href'] will now return the href value returned by the native element which will be the full URL rather than the internal value of the RouterLink href property.

  • When storing and retrieving a DetachedRouteHandle, the Router traverses the Route children in order to correctly allow storing a parent route when there are several possible child Route configs that can be stored. This allows a RouteReuseStrategy to store a parent Route and a child, while preserving the ability to change the child route while restoring the parent. Some implementations of RouteReuseStrategy will need to be updated to correctly store and retrieve the DetachedRouteHandle of descendants as well as the stored parent ActivatedRouteSnapshot. Previously, the Router would only store the parent, making it impossible to change descendant paths when a stored parent was retrieved. See #20114.

  • The router will no longer replace the browser URL when a new navigation cancels an ongoing navigation. This often causes URL flicker and was only in place to support some AngularJS hybrid applications. Hybrid applications which rely on the navigationId being present on initial navigations that were handled by the Angular router should instead subscribe to NavigationCancel events and perform the location.replaceState themselves to add navigationId to the Router state. In addition, tests which assert urlChanges on the SpyLocation may need to be adjusted to account for the replaceState which is no longer triggered.

  • It is no longer possible to use Route.loadChildren using a string value. The following supporting classes were removed from @angular/core:

  • NgModuleFactoryLoader

  • SystemJsNgModuleFactoryLoader

The @angular/router package no longer exports these symbols:

  • SpyNgModuleFactoryLoader
  • DeprecatedLoadChildren

The signature of the setupTestingRouter function from @angular/core/testing has been changed to drop its NgModuleFactoryLoader parameter, as an argument for that parameter can no longer be created.

service-worker

  • The return type of SwUpdate#activateUpdate and SwUpdate#checkForUpdate changed to Promise<boolean>.

Although unlikely, it is possible that this change will cause TypeScript type-checking to fail in some cases. If necessary, update your types to account for the new return type.

Deprecations

core

  • Angular no longer requires component factories to dynamically create components. The factory-based signature of the ViewContainerRef.createComponent function is deprecated in favor of a different signature that allows passing component classes instead.

  • The getModuleFactory function is deprecated in favor of the getNgModuleById one. With Ivy it's possible to work with NgModule classes directly, without retrieving corresponding factories, so the getNgModuleById should be used instead.

  • Ivy made it possible to avoid the need to resolve Component and NgModule factories. Framework APIs allow to use Component and NgModule Types directly. As a result, the PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory and a factory-based signature of the ApplicationRef.bootstrap method are now obsolete and are now deprecated. The PlatformRef.bootstrapModuleFactory calls can be replaced with PlatformRef.bootstrapModule ones. The ApplicationRef.bootstrap method allows to provide Component Type, so this can be used a replacement for the factory-based calls.

  • In ViewEngine, JIT compilation required special providers (like Compiler, CompilerFactory, etc) to be injected in the app and corresponding methods to be invoked. With Ivy, JIT compilation takes place implicitly if the Component, NgModule, etc have not already been AOT compiled. Those special providers were made available in Ivy for backwards-compatibility with ViewEngine to make the transition to Ivy smoother. Since ViewEngine is deprecated and will soon be removed, those symbols are now deprecated as well:

  • ModuleWithComponentFactories

  • Compiler
  • CompilerFactory
  • JitCompilerFactory
  • NgModuleFactory

Important note: this deprecation doesn't affect JIT mode in Ivy (JIT remains available with Ivy).

  • In Ivy, AOT summary files are unused in TestBed. Passing AOT summary files in TestBed has no effect, so the aotSummaries usage in TestBed is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Angular.

    platform-server

  • The renderModuleFactory symbol in @angular/platform-server is no longer necessary as of Angular v13.

The renderModuleFactory calls can be replaced with renderModule.

service-worker

  • The SwUpdate#activated observable is deprecated.

The SwUpdate#activated observable only emits values as a direct response to calling SwUpdate#activateUpdate() and was only useful for determining whether the call resulted in an update or not. Now, the return value of SwUpdate#activateUpdate() can be used to determine the outcome of the operation and therefore using SwUpdate#activated does not offer any benefit.

  • The SwUpdate#availalbe observable is deprecated.

The new SwUpdate#versionUpdates observable provides the same information and more. Therefore, it is possible to rebuild the same behavior as SwUpdate#availalbe using the events emitted by SwUpdate#versionUpdates and filtering for VersionReadyEvent events. As a result, the SwUpdate#availalbe observable is now redundant.

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Minified UMD bundles are no longer included in the distributed NPM packages.
  • animations: DOM elements are now correctly removed when the root view is removed. If you are using SSR and use the app's HTML for rendering, you will need to ensure that you save the HTML to a variable before destorying the app. It is also possible that tests could be accidentally relying on the old behavior by trying to find an element that was not removed in a previous test. If this is the case, the failing tests should be updated to ensure they have proper setup code which initializes elements they rely on.
  • common: Methods of the PlatformLocation class, namely onPopState and onHashChange, used to return void. Now those methods return functions that can be called to remove event handlers.
  • common: The methods of the HttpParams class now accept string | number | boolean instead of string for the value of a parameter. If you extended this class in your application, you'll have to update the signatures of your methods to reflect these changes.
  • compiler-cli: Linked libraries no longer generate legacy i18n message ids. Any downstream application that provides translations for these messages, will need to migrate their message ids using the localize-migrate command line tool.
  • core: Angular no longer maintains support for node v10
  • core: Previously the ng.getDirectives function threw an error in case a given DOM node had no Angular context associated with it (for example if a function was called for a DOM element outside of an Angular app). This behavior was inconsistent with other debugging utilities under ng namespace, which handled this situation without raising an exception. Now calling the ng.getDirectives function for such DOM nodes would result in an empty array returned from that function.
  • core: Switching default of emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue which changes the default behavior and may cause some applications which rely on the incorrect behavior to fail.

emitDistinctChangesOnly flag has also been deprecated and will be removed in a future major release.

The previous implementation would fire changes QueryList.changes.subscribe whenever the QueryList was recomputed. This resulted in an artificially high number of change notifications, as it is possible that recomputing QueryList results in the same list. When the QueryList gets recomputed is an implementation detail, and it should not be the thing that determines how often change event should fire.

Unfortunately, fixing the behavior outright caused too many existing applications to fail. For this reason, Angular considers this fix a breaking fix and has introduced a flag in @ContentChildren and @ViewChildren, that controls the behavior.

export class QueryCompWithStrictChangeEmitParent {
  @ContentChildren('foo', {
    // This option is the new default with this change.
    emitDistinctChangesOnly: true,
  })
  foos!: QueryList<any>;
}

For backward compatibility before v12 emitDistinctChangesOnlyDefaultValue was set to false. This change changes the default to true.

  • core: The type of the APP_INITIALIZER token has been changed to more accurately reflect the types of return values that are handled by Angular. Previously, each initializer callback was typed to return any, this is now Promise<unknown> | Observable<unknown> | void. In the unlikely event that your application uses the Injector.get or TestBed.inject API to inject the APP_INITIALIZER token, you may need to update the code to account for the stricter type.

Additionally, TypeScript may report the TS2742 error if the APP_INITIALIZER token is used in an expression of which its inferred type has to be emitted into a .d.ts file. To workaround this, an explicit type annotation is needed, which would typically be Provider or Provider[].

  • core: Minimum supported zone.js version is 0.11.4
  • forms: The emitEvent option was added to the following FormArray and FormGroup methods:

  • FormGroup.addControl

  • FormGroup.removeControl
  • FormGroup.setControl
  • FormArray.push
  • FormArray.insert
  • FormArray.removeAt
  • FormArray.setControl
  • FormArray.clear

If your app has custom classes that extend FormArray or FormGroup classes and override the above-mentioned methods, you may need to update your implementation to take the new options into account and make sure that overrides are compatible from a types perspective.

  • forms: Previously min and max attributes defined on the <input type="number"> were ignored by Forms module. Now presence of these attributes would trigger min/max validation logic (in case formControl, formControlName or ngModel directives are also present on a given input) and corresponding form control status would reflect that.
  • platform-browser: XhrFactory has been moved from @angular/common/http to @angular/common.

Before

import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common/http';

After

import {XhrFactory} from '@angular/common';
  • router: Strict null checks will report on fragment potentially being null. Migration path: add null check.
  • router: The type of the RouterLinkActive.routerLinkActiveOptions input was expanded to allow more fine-tuned control. Code that previously read this property may need to be updated to account for the new type.

BREAKING CHANGES

  • common:
    • 6acea54: The locale data API has been marked as returning readonly arrays, rather than mutable arrays, since these arrays are shared across calls to the API. If you were mutating them (e.g. calling sort(), push(), splice(), etc.) then your code will no longer compile. If you need to mutate the array, you should now make a copy (e.g. by calling slice()) and mutate the copy.
    • 26f2820: When passing a date-time formatted string to the DatePipe in a format that contains fractions of a millisecond, the milliseconds will now always be rounded down rather than to the nearest millisecond. Most applications will not be affected by this change. If this is not the desired behaviour then consider pre-processing the string to round the millisecond part before passing it to the DatePipe.
    • 4744c22: The slice pipe now returns null for the undefined input value, which is consistent with the behavior of most pipes. If you rely on undefined being the result in that case, you now need to check for it explicitly.
    • 4dfe0fa: The typing of the keyvalue pipe has been fixed to report that for input objects that have number keys, the result will contain the string representation of the keys. This was already the case and the types have simply been updated to reflect this. Please update the consumers of the pipe output if they were relying on the incorrect types. Note that this does not affect use cases where the input values are Maps, so if you need to preserve numbers, this is an effective way.
    • 7b2aac9: The signatures of the number pipes now explicitly state which types are accepted. This should only cause issues in corner cases, as any other values would result in runtime exceptions.
    • daf8b7f: The signature of the date pipe now explicitly states which types are accepted. This should only cause issues in corner cases, as any other values would result in runtime exceptions.
    • 5f815c0: The async pipe no longer claims to return undefined for an input that was typed as undefined. Note that the code actually returned null on undefined inputs. In the unlikely case you were relying on this, please fix the typing of the consumers of the pipe output.
    • c7d5555: The case conversion pipes no longer let falsy values through. They now map both null and undefined to null and raise an exception on invalid input (0, false, NaN) just like most "common pipes". If your code required falsy values to pass through, you need to handle them explicitly.
  • compiler:
    • 736e064: TypeScript 3.9 is no longer supported, please upgrade to TypeScript 4.0.
  • compiler-cli:
    • 0a16e60: Expressions within ICUs are now type-checked again, fixing a regression in Ivy. This may cause compilation failures if errors are found in expressions that appear within an ICU. Please correct these expressions to resolve the type-check errors.
  • core:
    • fdea180: CollectionChangeRecord has been removed, use IterableChangeRecord instead.
    • c8f056b: If you call TestBed.overrideProvider after TestBed initialization, provider overrides are not applied. This behavior is consistent with other override methods (such as TestBed.overrideDirective, etc) but they throw an error to indicate that, when the check was missing in the TestBed.overrideProvider function. Now calling TestBed.overrideProvider after TestBed initialization also triggers an error, thus there is a chance that some tests (where TestBed.overrideProvider is called after TestBed initialization) will start to fail and require updates to move TestBed.overrideProvider calls before TestBed initialization is completed.
    • 4ca1c73: In v10, IE 9, 10, and IE mobile support was deprecated. In v11, Angular framework removes IE 9, 10, and IE mobile support completely. Supporting outdated browsers like these increases bundle size, code complexity, and test load, and also requires time and effort that could be spent on improvements to the framework. For example, fixing issues can be more difficult, as a straightforward fix for modern browsers could break old ones that have quirks due to not receiving updates from vendors.
    • 4a1c12c: ViewEncapsulation.Native has been removed. Use ViewEncapsulation.ShadowDom instead. Existing usages will be updated automatically by ng update.
  • forms:
    • d9fea85: Previously if FormControl, FormGroup and FormArray class instances had async validators defined at initialization time, the status change event was not emitted once async validators completed. After this change the status event is emitted into the statusChanges observable. If your code relies on the old behavior, you can filter/ignore this additional status change event.
    • 246de9a: Directives in the @angular/forms package used to have any[] as a type of validators and asyncValidators arguments in constructors. Now these arguments are properly typed, so if your code relies on directive constructor types it may require some updates to improve type safety.
    • f4f1bcc: Type of AbstractFormControl.parent now includes null. null is now included in the types of .parent. If you don't already have a check for this case, the TypeScript compiler might complain. A v11 migration exists which adds the non-null assertion operator where necessary. In an unlikely case your code was testing the parent against undefined with strict equality, you'll need to change this to === null instead, since the parent is now explicitly initialized with null instead of being left undefined.
  • platform-server:
    • b4e8399: If you use useAbsoluteUrl to setup platform-server, you now need to also specify baseUrl. We are intentionally making this a breaking change in a minor release, because if useAbsoluteUrl is set to true then the behavior of the application could be unpredictable, resulting in issues that are hard to discover but could be affecting production environments.
  • platform-webworker:
    • 93c3d8f: @angular/platform-webworker and @angular/platform-webworker-dynamic have been removed as they were deprecated in v8.
  • router:
    • 3817e5f: This change corrects the argument order when calling RouteReuseStrategy#shouldReuseRoute. Previously, when evaluating child routes, they would be called with the future and current arguments would be swapped. If your RouteReuseStrategy relies specifically on only the future or current snapshot state, you may need to update the shouldReuseRoute implementation's use of "future" and "current" ActivatedRouteSnapshots.
    • e4f4d18: While the new parameter types allow a variable of type NavigationExtras to be passed in, they will not allow object literals, as they may only specify known properties. They will also not accept types that do not have properties in common with the ones in the Pick. To fix this error, only specify properties from the NavigationExtras which are actually used in the respective function calls or use a type assertion on the object or variable: as NavigationExtras.
    • 837889f: This commit changes the default value of relativeLinkResolution from 'legacy' to 'default'. If your application previously used the default by not specifying a value in the ExtraOptions and uses relative links when navigating from children of empty path routes, you will need to update your RouterModule to specifically specify 'legacy' for relativeLinkResolution. See https://angular.io/api/router/ExtraOptions#relativeLinkResolution for more details.
    • c4becca: The initialNavigation property for the options in RouterModule.forRoot no longer supports legacy_disabled, legacy_enabled, true, or false as valid values. legacy_enabled (the old default) is instead enabledNonBlocking.
    • c4becca: enabled is deprecated as a valid value for the RouterModule.forRoot initialNavigation option. enabledBlocking has been introduced to replace it.
    • 783a5bd: preserveQueryParams has been removed, use queryParamsHandling: "preserve" instead.
    • b0b4953: If you were accessing the RouterLink values of queryParams, fragment or queryParamsHandling you might need to relax the typing to also accept undefined and null.

Dependency updates

@angular/compiler-cli now requires:

  • TypeScript 3.9

BREAKING CHANGES

  • TypeScript 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 are no longer supported, please update to TypeScript 3.9.
  • core: Angular npm packages no longer contain jsdoc comments to support Closure Compiler's advanced optimizations

The support for Closure Compiler in Angular packages has been experimental and broken for quite some time.

As of TS3.9, Closure is unusable with the JavaScript emit. Please follow https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/38374 for more information and updates.

If you used Closure Compiler with Angular in the past, you will likely be better off consuming Angular packages built from sources directly rather than consuming the version we publish on npm, which is primarily optimized for Webpack/Rollup + Terser build pipeline.

As a temporary workaround, you might consider using your current build pipeline with Closure flag --compilation_level=SIMPLE. This flag will ensure that your build pipeline produces buildable and runnable artifacts, at the cost of increased payload size due to advanced optimizations being disabled.

If you were affected by this change, please help us understand your needs by leaving a comment on https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/37234.

  • core: make generic mandatory for ModuleWithProviders

A generic type parameter has always been required for the ModuleWithProviders pattern to work with Ivy, but prior to this commit, View Engine allowed the generic type to be omitted (though support was officially deprecated). If you're using ModuleWithProviders without a generic type in your application code, a v10 migration will update your code for you.

However, if you are using View Engine and also depending on a library that omits the generic type, you will now get a build time error similar to:

error TS2314: Generic type 'ModuleWithProviders<T>' requires 1 type argument(s).

In this case, ngcc won't help you (because it's Ivy-only) and the migration only covers application code. You should contact the library author to fix their library to provide a type parameter when they use this class.

As a workaround, we suggest setting skipLibChecks to false in your tsconfig or updating your app to use Ivy.

  • forms: Number inputs no longer listen to the change event.

Tests which trigger change events need to be updated to trigger input events instead.

The change event was in place to support IE9, as we found that input events were not fired with backspace or cut actions. If you need to maintain IE9 support, you will need to add a change event listener to number inputs and call the onChange method of NumberValueAccessor manually.

Lastly, old versions of WebDriver would synthetically trigger the change event on WebElement.clear and WebElement.sendKeys. If you are using an old version of WebDriver, you may need to update tests to ensure input events are triggered. For example, you could use element.sendKeys(Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, "a"), Keys.BACK_SPACE); in place of element.clear().

  • forms: The minLength and maxLength validators now verify that the form control's value has a numeric length property, and only validate for length if that's the case.

Previously, falsey values without the length property (such as 0 or false values) were triggering validation errors. If your code relies on the old behavior, you can include other validators such as min or requiredTrue to the list of validators for a particular field.

  • bazel: esm5 and fesm5 format is no longer distributed in Angular's npm packages e.g. @angular/core

If you are not using Angular CLI to build your application or library, and you need to be able to build es5 artifacts, then you will need to downlevel the distributed Angular code to es5 on your own.

Angular CLI will automatically downlevel the code to es5 if differential loading is enabled in the Angular project, so no action is required from Angular CLI users.

  • core: Warnings about unknown elements are now logged as errors. This won't break your app, but it may trip up tools that expect nothing to be logged via console.error.
  • router: Any resolver which return EMPTY will cancel navigation. If you want to allow the navigation to continue, you will need to update the resolvers to emit some value, (i.e. defaultIfEmpty(...), of(...), etc).
  • service-worker: Previously, Vary headers would be taken into account when retrieving resources from the cache, completely preventing the retrieval of cached assets (due to ServiceWorker implementation details) and leading to unpredictable behavior due to inconsistent/buggy implementations in different browsers.

Now, Vary headers are ignored when retrieving resources from the ServiceWorker caches, which can result in resources being retrieved even when their headers are different. If your application needs to differentiate its responses based on request headers, please make sure the Angular ServiceWorker is configured to avoid caching the affected resources.

  • common: This change could result in ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenChecked errors that were not detected before. The error could previously have gone undetected because two WrappedValues are considered "equal" in all cases for the purposes of the check, even if their respective unwrapped values are not.

Additionally, [val]=(observable | async).someProperty will no longer trigger change detection if the value of someProperty is identical to the value in the previous emit. If you need to force change detection, either update the binding to use an object whose reference changes or subscribe to the observable and call markForCheck as needed.

  • common: format day-periods that cross midnight

    When formatting a time with the b or B format codes, the rendered string was not correctly handling day periods that spanned midnight. Instead the logic was falling back to the default case of AM.

    Now the logic has been updated so that it matches times that are within a day period that spans midnight, so it will now render the correct output, such as at night in the case of English.

    Applications that are using either formatDate() or DatePipe and any of the b or B format codes will be affected by this change.

  • router: UrlMatcher's type now reflects that it could always return null.

    If you implemented your own Router or Recognizer class, please update it to handle matcher returning null.

BREAKING CHANGES

  • i18n: The CLDR data has been updated to v36.0.0, which may cause some localized data strings to change. For example, the space separator used in numbers in the fr locales changed from \xa0 to \u202f (c1bd3bc)
  • bazel: @angular/bazel ng_setup_workspace() is no longer needed and has been removed. We assume you will fetch rules_nodejs in your WORKSPACE file, and no other dependencies remain here. Simply remove any calls to this function and the corresponding load statement.
  • typescript 3.4 and 3.5 are no longer supported, please update to typescript 3.6
  • We no longer directly have a direct depedency on tslib. Instead it is now listed a peerDependency.

Users not using the CLI will need to manually install tslib via;

  • forms: * <ngForm></ngForm> can no longer be used as a selector. Use <ng-form></ng-form> instead.
  • The NgFormSelectorWarning directive has been removed.
  • FormsModule.withConfig has been removed. Use the FormsModule directly.
  • core: The deprecated type Renderer has been removed. Use Renderer2 instead.
  • core: The deprecated type RenderComponentType has been removed. Use RendererType2 instead.
  • core: The deprecated type RootRenderer has been removed. Use RendererFactory2 instead.
  • service-worker: Remove deprecated option versionedFiles from service worker asset group configuration in ngsw-config.json

Before

"assetGroups": [
  {
    "name": "test",
    "resources": {
      "versionedFiles": [
        "/**/*.txt"
      ]

  • ivy: Translations (loaded via the loadTranslations() function) must now use MessageId for the translation key rather than the previous SourceMessage string.
  • ivy: To attach the $localize function to the global scope import from @angular/localize/init. Previously it was @angular/localize. To access the loadTranslations() and clearTranslations() functions, import from @angular/localize. Previously it was @angular/localize/run_time.
  • bazel: Angular bazel users using protractor_web_test_suite from @angular/bazel npm package should now switch to the @bazel/protractor npm package.

This should impact very few users and the user's that are impacted have a very easy upgrade path to switch to fetching the protractor_web_test_suite rule via the @bazel/protractor npm package.

  • ivy: This commit removes the public export of hasBeenProcessed().

This was exported to be available to the CLI integration but was never used. The change to the function signature is a breaking change in itself so we remove the function altogether to simplify and lower the public API surface going forward.

  • core: Injector.get now accepts abstract classes to return type-safe values. Previous implementation returned any through the deprecated implementation.
  • Angular now compiles with Ivy by default (#32219) (ec4381d).

If you aren't familiar with Ivy, read our blog post about the Ivy preview and see the list of changes here.

  • ivy: make Hammer support tree-shakable. Previously, in Ivy applications, Hammer providers were included by default. With this commit, apps that want Hammer support must import HammerModulein their root module. (#32203) (de8ebbd)

DEPRECATIONS

  • core: TestBed.get function is marked as deprecated, use TestBed.inject instead.

DEPRECATIONS

  • core: deprecate integration with the Web Tracing Framework (WTF) (#30642) (b408445)
  • platform-webworker: deprecate platform-webworker (#30642) (361f181) (which aren't supported) and abstract class tokens.

Before:

TestBed.configureTestingModule({
  providers: [{provide: "stringToken", useValue: new Service()}],
});

let service = TestBed.get("stringToken"); // type any

After:

const SERVICE_TOKEN = new InjectionToken<Service>("SERVICE_TOKEN");

TestBed.configureTestingModule({
  providers: [{provide: SERVICE_TOKEN, useValue: new Service()}],
});

let service = TestBed.get(SERVICE_TOKEN); // type Service

BREAKING CHANGES

  • bazel: @bazel/typescript is now a peerDependency of @angular/bazel so users of @angular/bazel must add @bazel/typescript to their package.json
  • bazel: ng_module now depends on a minimum of build_bazel_rules_nodejs 0.27.12
  • core: In Angular version 8, it's required that all @ViewChild and @ContentChild queries have a 'static' flag specifying whether the query is 'static' or 'dynamic'. The compiler previously sorted queries automatically, but in 8.0 developers are required to explicitly specify which behavior is wanted. This is a temporary requirement as part of a migration; see static query migration guide for more details.

    @ViewChildren and @ContentChildren queries are always dynamic, and so are unaffected.

  • TestBed.get() has two signatures, one which is typed and another which accepts and returns any. The signature for any is deprecated; all usage of TestBed.get() should go through the typed API. This mainly affects string tokens (which aren't supported) and abstract class tokens.

    Before:

    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      providers: [{provide: "stringToken", useValue: new Service()}],
    });
    
    let service = TestBed.get("stringToken"); // type any

    After:

    const SERVICE_TOKEN = new InjectionToken<Service>("SERVICE_TOKEN");
    
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      providers: [{provide: SERVICE_TOKEN, useValue: new Service()}],
    });
    
    let service = TestBed.get(SERVICE_TOKEN); // type Service
  • core: Certain elements (like <tr> or <col>) require parent elements to be of a certain type by the HTML specification (ex. <tr> can only be inside <tbody> / <thead>). Before this change Angular template parser was auto-correcting "invalid" HTML using the following rules:

    • <tr> would be wrapped in <tbody> if not inside <tbody>, <tfoot> or <thead>;
    • <col> would be wrapped in <colgroup> if not inside <colgroup>.

    This mechanism of automatic wrapping / auto-correcting was problematic for several reasons:

    • it is non-obvious and arbitrary (ex. there are more HTML elements that have rules for parent type);
    • it is incorrect for cases where <tr> / <col> are at the root of a component's content, ex.:
    <projecting-tr-inside-tbody>
      <tr>...</tr>
    </projecting-tr-inside-tbody>

    In the above example the <projecting-tr-inside-tbody> component could be "surprised" to see additional <tbody> elements inserted by Angular HTML parser.

  • http: The deprecated @angular/http package has been removed, the @angular/common/http package should be used instead. For details on how to migrate, please refer to the deprecations guide.

  • TypeScript 3.1 and 3.2 are no longer supported.

    Please update your TypeScript version to 3.4, as version 3.3 is also not supported.

Possible Breaking Changes

  • animations: When animation is triggered within a disabled zone, the associated event (which an instance of AnimationEvent) will no longer report the totalTime as 0 (it will emit the actual time of the animation).

    To detect if an animation event is reporting a disabled animation then the event.disabled property can be used instead.

  • compiler: The <template> tag was deprecated in Angular v4 to avoid collisions (i.e. when using Web Components).

    This change 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>
  • core: it is no longer possible to import animation-related functions from @angular/core. All animation symbols must now be imported from @angular/animations.

  • forms: - AbstractControl#statusChanges now emits an event of 'PENDING' when you call AbstractControl#markAsPending
    • Previously it did not emit an event when you called markAsPending
    • To migrate you would need to ensure that if you are filtering or checking events from statusChanges that you account for the new event when calling markAsPending
  • forms: ngModelChange is now emitted after the value/validity is updated on its control.

    Previously, ngModelChange was emitted before its underlying control was updated. This was fine if you passed through the value directly through the $event keyword, e.g.

    <input [(ngModel)]="name" (ngModelChange)="onChange($event)">
    
    onChange(value) {
       console.log(value);               // would log updated value
    }

    However, if you had a handler for the ngModelChange event that checked the value through the control, you would get the old value rather than the updated value. e.g:

    <input #modelDir="ngModel" [(ngModel)]="name" (ngModelChange)="onChange(modelDir)">
    
    onChange(ngModel: NgModel) {
      console.log(ngModel.value);        // would log old value, not updated value
    }

    Now the value and validity will be updated before the ngModelChange event is emitted, so the same setup will log the updated value.

    onChange(ngModel: NgModel) {
       console.log(ngModel.value);       // will log updated value
    }

    We think this order will be less confusing when the control is checked directly. You will only need to update your app if it has relied on this bug to keep track of the old control value. If that is the case, you should be able to track the old value directly by saving it on your component.

Note: Due to an animation fix back in 5.1.1 (c2b3792) which allows for nested :leave queries to work within animation sequences, all elements that are dynamically inserted (*ngIf, *ngFor, etc…) now contain the special CSS class: “ng-star-inserted”. This may cause failures within unit tests if there are any assertions that match against element.className directly. (An easy fix for this is to match using a regular expression instead of asserting the className string directly.)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • compiler: Angular now requires TypeScript 2.4.x.
  • compiler: split compiler and core. @angular/platform-server now additionally depends on @angular/platform-browser-dynamic as a peer dependency. (#18683) (0cc77b4)
  • platformXXXX() no longer accepts providers which depend on reflection. Specifically the method signature went from Provider[] to StaticProvider[].

Example: Before:

[
  MyClass,
  {provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA}
]

After:

[
  {provide: MyClass, deps: [Dep1,...]},
  {provide: ClassA, useClass: SubClassA, deps: [Dep1,...]}
]

NOTE: This only applies to platform creation and providers for the JIT compiler. It does not apply to @Component or @NgModule provides declarations.

Benchpress note: Previously Benchpress also supported reflective provides, which now require static providers.

I18n Changes (@angular/common)

Because of multiple bugs and browser inconsistencies, we have dropped the intl api in favor of data exported from the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR). Unfortunately we had to change the i18n pipes (date, number, currency, percent) and there are some breaking changes.

I18n pipes:
  • Breaking change:
    • By default Angular now only contains locale data for the language en-US, if you set the value of LOCALE_ID to another locale, you will have to import new locale data for this language because we don't use the intl API anymore.
  • Features:

    • you don't need to use the intl polyfill for Angular anymore.
    • all i18n pipes now have an additional last parameter locale which allows you to use a specific locale instead of the one defined in the token LOCALE_ID (whose default value is en-US).
    • the new locale data extracted from CLDR are now available to developers as well and can be used through an API (which should be especially useful for library authors).
    • you can still use the old pipes for now, but their names have been changed and they are no longer included in the CommonModule. To use them, you will have to import the DeprecatedI18NPipesModule after the CommonModule (the order is important):
    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
    import { CommonModule, DeprecatedI18NPipesModule } from '@angular/common';
    
    @NgModule({
      imports: [
        CommonModule,
        // import deprecated module after
        DeprecatedI18NPipesModule
      ]
    })
    export class AppModule { }

    Don't forget that you will still need to import the intl API polyfill if you want to use those deprecated pipes.

    Date pipe
  • Breaking changes:

    • the predefined formats (short, shortTime, shortDate, medium, ...) now use the patterns given by CLDR (like it was in AngularJS) instead of the ones from the intl API. You might notice some changes, e.g. shortDate will be 8/15/17 instead of 8/15/2017 for en-US.
    • the narrow version of eras is now GGGGG instead of G, the format G is now similar to GG and GGG.
    • the narrow version of months is now MMMMM instead of L, the format L is now the short standalone version of months.
    • the narrow version of the week day is now EEEEE instead of E, the format E is now similar to EE and EEE.
    • the timezone z will now fallback to O and output GMT+1 instead of the complete zone name (e.g. Pacific Standard Time), this is because the quantity of data required to have all the zone names in all of the existing locales is too big.
    • the timezone Z will now output the ISO8601 basic format, e.g. +0100, you should now use ZZZZ to get GMT+01:00.

    | Field type | Format | Example value | v4 | v5 | |------------|---------------|-----------------------|----|---------------| | Eras | Narrow | A for AD | G | GGGGG | | Months | Narrow | S for September | L | MMMMM | | Week day | Narrow | M for Monday | E | EEEEE | | Timezone | Long location | Pacific Standard Time | z | Not available | | Timezone | Long GMT | GMT+01:00 | Z | ZZZZ |

  • Features

    • new predefined formats long, full, longTime, fullTime.
    • the format yyy is now supported, e.g. the year 52 will be 052 and the year 2017 will be 2017.
    • standalone months are now supported with the formats L to LLLLL.
    • week of the year is now supported with the formats w and ww, e.g. weeks 5 and 05.
    • week of the month is now supported with the format W, e.g. week 3.
    • fractional seconds are now supported with the format S to SSS.
    • day periods for AM/PM now supports additional formats aa, aaa, aaaa and aaaaa. The formats a to aaa are similar, while aaaa is the wide version if available (e.g. ante meridiem for am), or equivalent to a otherwise, and aaaaa is the narrow version (e.g. a for am).
    • extra day periods are now supported with the formats b to bbbbb (and B to BBBBB for the standalone equivalents), e.g. morning, noon, afternoon, ....
    • the short non-localized timezones are now available with the format O to OOOO. The formats O to OOO will output GMT+1 while the format OOOO will be GMT+01:00.
    • the ISO8601 basic time zones are now available with the formats Z to ZZZZZ. The formats Z to ZZZ will output +0100, while the format ZZZZ will be GMT+01:00 and ZZZZZ will be +01:00.
  • Bug fixes

    • the date pipe will now work exactly the same across all browsers, which will fix a lot of bugs for safari and IE.
    • eras can now be used on their own without the date, e.g. the format GG will be AD instead of 8 15, 2017 AD.
    Currency pipe
  • Breaking change:

    • the default value for symbolDisplay is now symbol instead of code. This means that by default you will see $4.99 for en-US instead of USD4.99 previously.
  • Deprecation:

    • the second parameter of the currency pipe (symbolDisplay) is no longer a boolean, it now takes the values code, symbol or symbol-narrow. A boolean value is still valid for now, but it is deprecated and it will print a warning message in the console.
  • Features:

    • you can now choose between code, symbol or symbol-narrow which gives you access to more options for some currencies (e.g. the canadian dollar with the code CAD has the symbol CA$ and the symbol-narrow $).
    Percent pipe
  • Breaking change
    • if you don't specify the number of digits to round to, the local format will be used (and it usually rounds numbers to 0 digits, instead of not rounding previously), e.g. {{ 3.141592 | percent }} will output 314% for the locale en-US instead of 314.1592% previously.

  • upgrade: use ComponentFactory.inputs/outputs/ngContentSelectors (a3e32fb)
  • introduce source maps for templates (#15011) (cdc882b)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Previously, any provider that had an ngOnDestroy lifecycle hook would be created eagerly.

    Now, only classes that are annotated with @Component, @Directive, @Pipe, @NgModule are eager. Providers only become eager if they are either directly or transitively injected into one of the above.

    This also makes all useValue providers eager, which should have no observable impact other than code size.

    EXPECTED IMPACT: Making providers eager was an incorrect behavior and never documented. Also, providers that are used by a directive / pipe / ngModule stay eager. So the impact should be rather small.

  • DebugNode.source no longer returns the source location of a node.

    Closes 14013

  • core: (since v4 rc.1)

    • Renderer2.setStyle no longer takes booleans but rather a bit mask of flags.

4.0.0-rc.1 (2017-02-24)

We are excited to share 4.0.0-RC.1 with the community. This is a feature-complete pre-release of 4.0.0. Upgrade to get to know the new features to be released in 4.0.0, and to help us validate the release.

It’s important to note that this release has been tested extensively. All Angular applications within Google use the master branch of Angular, so every commit is tested and validated at scale prior to any release.

We Need Your Help

Please give this RC a try and test it with your projects! We have spent a significant amount of time working to ensure that this release is backwards compatible and will work with your existing code, but you may have use cases we haven’t anticipated. If you are broken by this release, let us know so that we can look into it right away. We are also looking for feedback related to the ergonomics of any newly added APIs.

What’s New

View Engine

We’ve made changes under the hood to what AOT generated code looks like. These changes should reduce the size of the generated code for your components by more than half in some cases. Read the Design Doc for the View Engine updates.

Enhanced *ngIf syntax

Our template binding syntax now supports a couple helpful changes. You can now use an if/else style syntax, and assign local variables such as when unrolling an observable.

<ng-template #loading>Loading...</ng-template>
<div *ngIf="userObservable | async; else loading; let user">
  {{ user.name }}
</div>

Animation Package

We have pulled Animations into their own package. This means that if you don’t use Animations, this extra code will not end up in your production bundles. This also allows you to more easily find documentation and to take better advantage of autocompletion. If you do need animations, libraries like Material will automatically import the module (once you install it via NPM), or you can add it yourself to your main NgModule.

TypeScript 2.1

We’ve updated Angular to a more recent version of TypeScript. This will improve the speed of ngc and you will get better type checking throughout your application.

StrictNullChecks

Angular is now compliant with TypeScript’s StrictNullChecks. This means that you can enable StrictNullChecks in your project, if desired.

Universal

Universal, the project that allows developers to run Angular on a server, is now up to date with Angular again, and has been adopted by the Angular team. This release now includes the results of the work from the Universal team over the last few months. The majority of the Universal code is now in platform-server. To learn more about this change, take a look the new renderModuleFactory method, or Rob Wormald’s Demo Repository. More documentation is forthcoming.

Flat ES Modules (Flat ESM / FESM)

We now ship flattened versions of our modules ("rolled up" version of our code in the EcmaScript Module format, see example file). This format should help tree-shaking, help reduce the size of your generated bundles, and speed up build, transpilation, and loading in the browser in certain scenarios.

ES2015 Builds

We now also ship our packages in the ES2015 Flat ESM format. This option is experimental and opt-in (configure your webpack to resolve "es2015" property in package.json over the regular "module" property).

Known Issues

The following is a list of known issues that will be fixed in the next rcs.

  • Source maps are missing in npm packages
  • Generated bundles will be larger temporarily while we validate new code paths and remove old ones
  • angular.io docs have not been updated to reflect API changes in 4.0
  • legacy UMD bundles don't have correct RxJS mappings when running in ES5 mode without a module system

Installing RC.1

We have two main ways to update. If you have an existing project, you should be able to run:

On Linux/Mac: npm install @angular/{common,compiler,compiler-cli,core,forms,http,platform-browser,platform-browser-dynamic,platform-server,router,animations}@next --save On Windows: npm install @angular/common@next @angular/compiler@next @angular/compiler-cli@next @angular/core@next @angular/forms@next @angular/http@next @angular/platform-browser@next @angular/platform-browser-dynamic@next @angular/platform-server@next @angular/router@next @angular/animations@next --save

Then run whatever ng serve or npm start command you normally use, and everything should work.

Please ensure that you are using Typescript v2.1.6 or higher.

If you rely on Animations you’ll also need to install the animations package @angular/animations and import the new BrowserAnimationsModule from @angular/platform-browser/animations in your root NgModule. Without this, your code will compile and run, but animations won’t activate. Imports from @angular/core were deprecated, use imports from the new package import { trigger, state, style, transition, animate } from '@angular/animations';.

What's next?

We have three more release candidates scheduled before our planned GA the week of March 22. In the meantime we'll be looking for your feedback, fixing bugs and working on docs.

BREAKING CHANGES

  • core: Because all lifecycle hooks are now interfaces the code that uses 'extends' keyword will no longer compile. Introduced by (ee747f7).

    To migrate the code follow the example below:

    Before:

    @Component()
    class SomeComponent extends OnInit {}

    After:

    @Component()
    class SomeComponent implements OnInit {}

    Based on our research we don't expect anyone to be affected by this change.

  • RootRenderer cannot be used any more, use RendererFactoryV2 instead. Introduced by (ccb636c).

    Note: Renderer can still be injected/used, but is deprecated.

Note: the 4.0.0-rc.0 release on npm accidentally omitted one bug fix, so we cut rc.1 instead. oops :-)

DEPRECATIONS

  • core: KeyValueDifferFactory and IterableDifferFactory no longer have ChangeDetectorRef as a parameter. It was not used and has been there for historical reasons. If you call DifferFactory.create(...) remove the ChangeDetectorRef argument. Introduced by (#14311).

BREAKING CHANGES

  • common: Classes that derive from AsyncPipe and override transform() might not compile correctly. The much more common use of async pipe in templates is unaffected. We expect no or little impact on apps from this change, file an issue if we break you. Introduced by (#14367) (4da7925).

    • Mitigation: Update derived classes of AsyncPipe that override transform() to include the type parameter overloads.

Features

Performance Improvements

  • use abstract keyword where possible to decrease file size. (#14112) (670b680)
  • core simplify ReflectiveInjector by removing code for Dart implementation (#14126) (670b680)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • common: A definition of Iterable<T> is now required to correctly compile Angular applications. Support for Iterable<T> is not required at runtime but a type definition Iterable<T> must be available.

NgFor, and now NgForOf<T>, already supports Iterable<T> at runtime. With this change the type definition is updated to reflect this support.

Migration:

  • add "es2015.iterable.ts" to your tsconfig.json "libs" fields.

Part of #12398

  • upgrade: Previously, upgrade/static/downgradeInjectable returned an array of the form:
['dep1', 'dep2', ..., function factory(dep1, dep2, ...) { ... }]

Now it returns a function with an $inject property:

factory.$inject = ['dep1', 'dep2', ...];
function factory(dep1, dep2, ...) { ... }

It shouldn't affect the behavior of apps, since both forms are equally suitable to be used for registering AngularJS injectable services, but it is possible that type-checking might fail or that current code breaks if it relies on the returned value being an array.

  • tsc-wrapped: Support of vinyl like config file was added (#13987) (0c7726d)
  • upgrade: Support ng-model in downgraded components (#10578) (e21e9c5)

DEPRECATIONS

  • OpaqueToken is now deprecated, use InjectionToken<T> instead.
  • Injector.get(token: any, notFoundValue?: any): any is now deprecated use the same method which is now overloaded as Injector.get<T>(token: Type<T>|InjectionToken<T>, notFoundValue?: T): T;

BREAKING CHANGES

  • core: - Because injector.get() is now parameterize it is possible that code which used to work no longer type checks. Example would be if one injects Foo but configures it as {provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}. The injection instance will be that of MockFoo but the type will be Foo instead of any as in the past. This means that it was possible to call a method on MockFoo in the past which now will fail type check. See this example:
class Foo {}
class MockFoo extends Foo {
  setupMock();
}

var PROVIDERS = [
  {provide: Foo, useClass: MockFoo}
];

...

function myTest(injector: Injector) {
  var foo = injector.get(Foo);
  // This line used to work since `foo` used to be `any` before this
  // change, it will now be `Foo`, and `Foo` does not have `setUpMock()`.
  // The fix is to downcast: `injector.get(Foo) as MockFoo`.
  foo.setUpMock();

Bug Fixes

Performance Improvements

  • animations: always run the animation queue outside of zones (e2622ad), closes #13440

Note

Due to regression in the 2.3.0 release that was fixed by #13464, components that have been compiled using 2.3.0 and published to npm will need to be recompiled and republished.

The >=2.3.1 compiler will issue is the following error if it encounters components compiled with 2.3.0: Unsupported metadata version 2 for module ${module}. This module should be compiled with a newer version of ngc.

We are adding more tests to our test suite to catch these kinds of problems before we cut a release.
