The `esModuleInterop` option is recommended to be enable by TypeScript and corrects several assumptions TypeScript would otherwise make when importing CommonJS files.
This option change helps ensure compatibility as packages move towards ESM.

This change removes the usage of the shell execution when spawning the latest CLI version when bootstrapping the update command. The absolute path of the node process is now spawned which removes the need for any shell path resolution. This also removes the need to quote and/or escape command arguments which can be error-prone. Node.js and the OS will now handle any quoting and escaping automatically and without any custom logic.
Prior to performing the initial updated package installation during the `ng update` process, the workspace node modules directory will be removed. This cleaning increases the guarantees that the package manager will hoist packages into the correct locations and avoid peer dependency inconsistencies.
With this change we change the package installation to async. This is needed as otherwise during `ng-add` the spinner gets stuck. With this change we also add the spinner in the installation methods.
All TypeScript files have been updated to pass the new eslint-based linting checks. eslint compatible disabling comments have also been added in place of the previous tslint comments.
Reading throw #16034 the angular config should be placed in the
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/angular/` directory, but if the environmental variable
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set the first check of `xdgConfigHome` function will
only put it in the `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` directory. Also renamed the config
file from `.angular-config.json` to `config.json` when it is in the
`~/.config/angular` directory since it doesn't need to be hidden.
With this change we automate the generation of `@angular/cli/lib/config/schema.json`. While on paper we could use quicktype for this. Quicktype doesn't handle `patternProperties` and `oneOf` that well.
How does this works?
Relative `$ref` will be resolved and inlined as part of the root schema definitions.
Example
```json
"@schematics/angular:enum": {
"$ref": "../../../../schematics/angular/enum/schema.json"
},
```
Will be parsed and transformed to
```json
"@schematics/angular:enum": {
"$ref": "#/definitions/SchematicsAngularEnumSchema"
},
"definitions: {
"SchematicsAngularEnumSchema": {
"title": "Angular Enum Options Schema",
"type": "object",
"description": "Generates a new, generic enum definition for the given or default project.",
"properties": {...}
}
}
```
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `ng add` command will now ask the user to confirm the package and version prior to installing and executing an uninstalled package.
This new behavior allows a user to abort the action if the version selected is not appropriate or if a typo occurred on the command line and an incorrect package would be installed.
A `--skip-confirmation` option has been added to skip the prompt and directly install and execute the package. This option is useful in CI and non-TTY scenarios such as automated scripts.
npm 7.5.6 contains several fixes that allow it to work successfully with the Angular CLI.
The minimum npm engine value is now set to support npm versions greater than 7.5.6 (npm 6 support remains unchanged).
A warning will be shown to users with npm 7 versions less than 7.5.6 when used with the new, add, or update commands.
This change will display an error message if using npm 7 (or versions earlier than 6). This is a temporarily change while npm 7 usability concerns are addressed.
Before only first line end was being replaced.
Also, the replace value was incorrectly escaped.
The CA read from cafile being corrupt resulted in broken updates
when using registry with self-signed certificate.
The workaround till this is merged is to use `ca` or `ca[]` properties in `.npmrc`.
With this change Pacote is updated to version 11.1.13.
This also requires normalization of options because Pacote now passes the options to `npm-registry-fetch` which requires some options to be camelCased.
Partially addresses #19624
Unlike `require.resolve`, the `resolve` package `paths` is only used as a fallback when the package is not resolved from the `basedir`,
Previously this resulted in the temporary version of CLI being resolved here which resulted in `ng update` incorrectly stating that there are no updates.
Previously, the workspace configuration file was found and loaded by individual commands potentially multiple times. This change moves the initial workspace location discovery and loading of the workspace to the CLI startup. It also provides the workspace to each command so that the commands can reuse the already loaded and parsed workspace configuration.
Third party libraries can attempt to write color codes to the output even though the CLI has already determined that color should not be used. The previously implemented color removal code is no longer functional since the update of ansi-colors to 4.1.0. While this appears to be a defect in the aforementioned package, the new CLI removal method not only bypasses the defect but also unneeded execution logic that the CLI does not need in this case.
Fixes: #17053
When an error occurs during ng update we currently discard the stack trace which in some cases made it hard to identify the cause of the error.
Now, we print the stack trace to a log file similarly to unhandled exceptions.
Example of CMD output;
```cmd

> Static flag migration.
Removes the `static` flag from dynamic queries.
As of Angular 9, the "static" flag defaults to false and is no longer required for your view and content queries.

Current change affects reading of global config from `.angular-config.json`. By default it will be created in user's home directory. If user moves it manually to `$HOME/.config/angular/.angular-config.json`, it will be subsequently read from new location.
With this change we now check if the current CLI version is the latest published version. If it is not, we install a temporary version to run the `ng update` with.
With this change the CLI offers a way for a package authors to specify if during `ng add` the package should be saved as a `dependencies`, `devDependencies` or not saved at all.
Such config needs to be specified in `package.json`
Example:
```json
"ng-add": {
"save": false
}
```
Possible values are;
- false - Don't add the package to `package.json`
- true - Add the package to the `dependencies`
- `dependencies` - Add the package to the `dependencies`
- `devDependencies` - Add the package to the `devDependencies`
