Forcing TypeScript to output commonjs modules instead of es2015 modules drastically improves rebuild speeds, especially for AOT.
This PR forces this option on the following modes:
- `ng build --watch --target=development`
- `ng serve --target=development`
- `ng test --code-coverage=false`
Please note that `--target=development` and `--code-coverage=false` are the defaults.
See https://github.com/webpack/webpack/issues/5863 for the webpack issue.
We feel build `--build-optimizer` is stable enough to not be experimental anymore.
This PR defaults `build-optimizer` when using Angular 5+ on a production build with `--aot`.
It can still be turned off with `--no-build-optimizer` (or `--build-optimizer=false`).
Fix#8050
Group all Angular packages that have the same version as @angular/core, and
also show information for schematics, devkit and others that might not be
in the package.json but still installed. Those versions are important.
We made too many shortcuts for passing data in and custom schematics could not
work properly.
This is temporary as we will likely move some more logic into schematics tooling
to be able to pass only the raw args and the CLI config, but for now this is
enough to unblock AngularMix.
when ng e2e --serve=true is run and the build is not successful e2e task
should not be run
previously the e2e task was run even if build was a failure which will
obviously result in failure of test cases
now if errors are detected in build the e2e task will not be run
update docs as well to reflect this behaviour
Closes#7567
This flag allows people who know what theyre doing to bundle the
server build together with all dependencies. It should only be
used when the whole rendering process is part of the main.ts
or one of its dependencies.
Fixes#7903.
This adds the new parameter `missingTranslation` for AoT that was added in angular/angular/pull/15987 and that lets you define the MissingTranslationStrategy
When calling ng help -s / --short one gets a shorter output; basically only ng + command, followed by the command's description.
No breaking change, as it introduces a new flag.
This PR doesn't change new projects to use 2.4 since I have seen some reports of possible problems in `@angular/*`.
Instead, it:
- removes the dependency restrictions on <2.3
- bumps related dependencies to the minimum that supports 2.4 (`rxjs@^5.4.2`, `ts-node@~3.2.0`)
- builds the CLI itself using 2.4
So if you want to install ts 2.4 in your new project, the CLI itself won't stop you.
Fix#6827
- change the URL for the API search
- use google search when --search option is true, since angular.io doesn't have a search page anymore
- improve the help and doc of the doc command

Allow controlling chunk naming via the `--named-chunks` flag, which can be set on `.angular-cli.json` as well.
Defaults to true in development, false in production.
Adds the new flag `--build-optimizer` (`--bo`), usable only with `--aot` (or `--prod` since it auto enables `--aot`).
This feature is experimental, and may not work correctly on your project. Should it work, total bundle size should go down. Savings are heavily dependent on the project.
See https://github.com/angular/devkit/tree/master/packages/angular_devkit/build_optimizer for details about all the optimizations applied.
Usage: `ng build --prod --build-optimizer`. Disabling the vendor chunk has been shown to improve total savings, and is done automatically when `--bo` is specified unless `--vendor-chunk` has a value.
Please let us know if using `--build-optimizer` breaks your project so we can improve it further. Repos are very welcome.
Adds following defaults to `.angular-cli.json` under `defaults`: `sourcemaps`, `baseHref`, `progress`, `poll`, `deleteOutputPath`, `preserveSymlinks`, `showCircularDependencies`.
They can be set via `ng set defaults.build.KEY = VALUE`.
Also removes `apps.0.showCircularDependencies`. This is not a breaking chance since it was only added in 1.3.0-beta.0.
