These async methods are a replacement for the Observable based `runSchematicAsync` and `runExternalSchematicAsync` methods.
DEPRECATED:
The Observable based `SchematicTestRunner.runSchematicAsync` and `SchematicTestRunner.runExternalSchematicAsync` method have been deprecated in favor of the Promise based `SchematicTestRunner.runSchematic` and `SchematicTestRunner.runExternalSchematic`.
This change updates the analytics collector collector to use GA4 instead of UA. The motivation behind this change is that UA will stop collecting data in 2023.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`analyticsSharing` option in the global angular configuration has been
removed without replacement. This option was used to configure the Angular CLI to access to your own users' CLI usage data.
If this option is used, it can be removed using `ng config --global cli.analyticsSharing undefined`.
With this change we change the how we handle `"format": "path"` schematic property option. We replace the formatter in favour of a `SmartDefaultProvider`, which ensures that nested schematics can access the `workingDirectory`.
With this change we removed several deprecated `@schematics/angular` deprecated options.
BREAKING CHANGE:
We removed several deprecated `@schematics/angular` deprecated options.
- `lintFix` have been removed from all schematics. `ng lint --fix` should be used instead.
- `legacyBrowsers` have been removed from the `application` schematics since IE 11 is no longer supported.
- `configuration` has been removed from the `web-worker` as it was unused.
- `target` has been removed from the `service-worker` as it was unused.
An internal schematics helper rule has been introduced for Angular schematics that only generate a set of project files from a set of templated files. Multiple current generation schematics contained essentially the same code which increased the sustainment burden and made refactoring and improvements more complicated.
It's confusing and redundant to use `When true` and `when false` in descriptions for a CLI arguments because specifying false/true is redundant in a command line argument flag and in most cases users will not do it.
Example:
`--foo=true` is the same as `--foo`
`--foo=false` is the same as `--no-foo`
Since will remove lintFix usage warnings when the option is set by a default of another schematic.
Example when executing
```
ng generate module customers --route customers --module app.module
```
The lintFix default of the module schematic will be passed down to the component schematic which would cause a warning to be shown.
Closes#19169
