Angular fetches template HTML files outside of the browser's normal parsing flow. As a result, URLs in template files are interpreted relative to the root application, when the components defined by the template files are inserted into the DOM. This change enables a template author to prefix URLs with the string $baseUrl, which will be replaced with the relative base path of the template file.
So for an example template loaded from /component/foo/template.html:
<img src="$baseUrl/logo.png" />
becomes:
<img src="/component/foo/logo.png" />
Addresses #2384.
Closes#2529
BREAKING CHANGES:
- shadow dom emulation no longer
supports the `<content>` tag. Use the new `<ng-content>` instead
(works with all shadow dom strategies).
- removed `DomRenderer.setViewRootNodes` and `AppViewManager.getComponentView`
-> use `DomRenderer.getNativeElementSync(elementRef)` and change shadow dom directly
- the `Renderer` interface has changed:
* `createView` now also has to support sub views
* the notion of a container has been removed. Instead, the renderer has
to implement methods to attach views next to elements or other views.
* a RenderView now contains multiple RenderFragments. Fragments
are used to move DOM nodes around.
Internal changes / design changes:
- Introduce notion of view fragments on render side
- DomProtoViews and DomViews on render side are merged,
AppProtoViews are not merged, AppViews are partially merged
(they share arrays with the other merged AppViews but we keep
individual AppView instances for now).
- DomProtoViews always have a `<template>` element as root
* needed for storing subviews
* we have less chunks of DOM to clone now
- remove fake ElementBinder / Bound element for root text bindings
and model them explicitly. This removes a lot of special cases we had!
- AppView shares data with nested component views
- some methods in AppViewManager (create, hydrate, dehydrate) are iterative now
* now possible as we have all child AppViews / ElementRefs already in an array!
BREAKING CHANGES:
- host actions don't take an expression as value any more but only a method name,
and assumes to get an array via the EventEmitter with the method arguments.
- Renderer.setElementProperty does not take `style.`/... prefixes any more.
Use the new methods `Renderer.setElementAttribute`, ... instead
Part of #2476Closes#2637
Allows to add or remove previous siblings of text
interpolations (e.g. by added `<script>` tags for
content reproduction, or by removed `<style>` tags).
Also calculates correctly whether an element is
empty.
Fixes#2591
These wrappers are not natively understood by
ts2dart. Removing them will improve Dart2JS
compilation due to fewer megamorphic calls to List
functions.
It also makes Angular code more succinct and
improves type safety in Angular due to better type
inference of the Array component type.
This change exposed several bugs in Angular.
clang-format 1.0.17 substantially improves formatting for fat arrow functions
and array literal detection. It also fixes a number of minor formatting issues.
