Karma is an optional peer dependency, but with the recent changes we broke this as we imported karma outside of the execution method, which made this package to be always imported even when the Karma builder was not invoked.
This is the ground work to be able to remove the `polyfills.ts` file which today is primarily used to add `zone.js`.
Usage examples:
```js
polyfills: ['zone.js'],
polyfills: ['zone.js', 'zone.js/testing', 'src/polyfills.ts'],
```
This commit removes the usages of `bundleDependencies` which does not correctly work as webpack will use `require` to import ESM module since we configure the server bundle to be outputted in CJS. Migrating fully to ESM is also currently not viable due to the lack of support from Domino.
Even if full ESM was possible, using this option would have resulted in a runtime overhead as Angular libraries would be linked during runtime instead of compile time.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The server builder `bundleDependencies` option has been removed. This option was used pre Ivy. Currently, using this option is unlikely to produce working server bundles.
The `externalDependencies` option can be used instead to exclude specific node_module packages from the final bundle.
Closes#23905
The use of the `@angular-devkit/core` `JsonObject` type is no longer needed to satisfy the type requirements of `@angular-devkit/architect` package builder creation functions.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The deprecated `showCircularDependencies` browser and server builder option has been removed. The recommended method to detect circular dependencies in project code is to use either a lint rule or other external tools.
In some cases unexpected files may be provided which can cause to unsupported or broken behaviour.
One such use-case is users can provide TypeScript files as `scripts` input, this would not be processed by the TypeScript compiler, see: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/17125 and would cause the build to fail with a an unhelpful error message during optimization as the JS optimizers cannot parse TypeScript input.
BREAKING CHANGE:
`browser` and `karma` builders `script` and `styles` options input files extensions are now validated.
Valid extensions for `scripts` are:
- `.js`
- `.cjs`
- `.mjs`
- `.jsx`
- `.cjsx`
- `.mjsx`
Valid extensions for `styles` are:
- `.css`
- `.less`
- `.sass`
- `.scss`
- `.styl`
BREAKING CHANGE: With this change a number of deprecated dev-server builder options which proxied to the browser builder have been removed. These options should be configured in the browser builder instead.
The removed options are:
- `aot`
- `sourceMap`
- `deployUrl`
- `baseHref`
- `vendorChunk`
- `commonChunk`
- `optimization`
- `progress`
With this change we deprecate deployUrl which in many case causes unexpected and undesired behaviour. Such as #12322, #21432 and #6666. This is because one of the drawbacks of deploy Url is that this url needs to be injected all over the bundles.
This option was previously introduced to handle application that only assets are hosted on a CDN. This setup is now mostly considered as legacy as it is recommended that the entire application is hosted on a CDN. That said, this legacy behaviour can still be achieved by setting the `baseHref` to the CDN address, while setting the `APP_BASE_HREF` to the application address.
Closes#12322 and closes#6666
BREAKING CHANGE:
With this change we removed several deprecated builder options
- `extractCss` has been removed from the browser builder. CSS is now always extracted.
- `servePathDefaultWarning` and `hmrWarning` have been removed from the dev-server builder. These options had no effect.
The dev-infra tooling now directly provides public API change testing capabilities that leverage the `api-extractor` utility. These new testing capabilities are shared with framework and components.
`ts-api-guardian` has been removed as a dependency as a result.
