This reverts commit 63cd873fef.
The change breaks existing tests of Google apps. The problem is that
while we tried to avoid adding #/ to window.location.href unnecessarily
we failed doing so. Likely because by setting $path, at some point
(during a digest) we try to check if $location changed and we mistake the
default '/' with an explicit settign of the path via the `path()` method.
This results in us writing the url with '#/' into $browser.url() which updates
the window.location by adding "#/" to the url - something we tried to avoid
in the first place.
I'll reopen PR #5712.
Before this change, on the root of the application, $location.path() would return
the empty string. Following this change, it will always return a root of '/'.
Closes#5650Closes#5712
Fixed inconsistency in $location.path() behaviour on the $locationChangeStart event when using
back/forward buttons in the browser or manually changing the url in the address bar.
$location.path() now returns the target url in these cases.

Before this fix, the xlink:href property of an SVG <a> element could not be parsed
on click, as the property is an SVGAnimatedString rather than a DOMString.
This patch parses the xlink:href's animVal into a DOMString in order to prevent
an `Object #<SVGAnimatedString> has no method 'indexOf'` exception from being thrown,
and also to update the location if necessary as expected.

The urlResolve method was fixed to automatically remove the
volume label from path names to fix issues with the file
protocol on windows where $location.path() was returning
paths where the first segment would be the volume name,
such as "/C:/mypath". See #4942 and #4928
However, the solution was specific to the $location non-
HTML5 mode, and was implemented at a lower level of
abstraction than it should have been. This refactor moves
the fix to inside of the LocationHashBangUrl $$parse method.
Closes#5041
Prior to this fix, the urlResolve method would automatically
strip the first segment of a path if the segment ends in a colon.
This was to correct undesired behavior in the $location service
using the file protocol on windows in multiple browsers (see #4680).
However, there could be cases where users intentionally
have first path segments that end in a colon
(although this conflicts with section 3.3 of rfc3986).
The solution to this problem is an extra check to make sure
the first path segment of the input url does not end with a colon,
to make sure we're only removing undesired path segments.
Fixes#4939
Chrome and other browsers on Windows often
append the drive name to the pathname,
as described in #4680. This would cause
the location service to browse to odd
URLs, such as /C:/myfile.html,
when opening apps using file://.
Fixes #4680
The location service, and other portions of the application,
were relying on a complicated regular expression to get parts of a URL.
But there is already a private urlUtils provider,
which relies on HTMLAnchorElement to provide this information,
and is suitable for most cases.
In order to make urlUtils more accessible in the absence of DI,
its methods were converted to standalone functions available globally.
The urlUtils.resolve method was renamed urlResolve,
and was refactored to only take 1 argument, url,
and not the 2nd "parse" boolean.
The method now always returns a parsed url.
All places in code which previously wanted a string instead of a parsed
url can now get the value from the href property of the returned object.
Tests were also added to ensure IPv6 addresses were handled correctly.

After a recent refactoring using $location in the default hashbang mode would result
in hash url being initialized unnecessarily in cases when the base url didn't end
with a slash.
for example http://localhost:8000/temp.html would get rewritten as
http://location:8000/temp.html#/temp.html by error.
parseKeyValue and toKeyValue can now handle duplicate values in the query.
```
?x=1&x=2 <-> {x:[1,2]}
```
The algorithm looks like:
1)parseKeyValue looks for presence of obj[key]
2)detects and replaces obj[key] with [obj[key],val]
3)then pushes more duplicates if necessary
4)toKeyValue decodes array correctly
5)(not changed)$location.search({param: 'key'}) still replaces if necessary
6)(not changed)$location.search({param: ['key1', 'key2']}) sets the url with duplicates
BREAKING CHANGE: Before this change:
- `parseKeyValue` only took the last key overwriting all the previous keys;
- `toKeyValue` joined the keys together in a comma delimited string.
This was deemed buggy behavior. If your server relied on this behavior
then either the server should be fixed or a simple serialization of
the array should be done on the client before passing it to $location.
With the recent refactoring of $location service we changed this behavior
resulting in a regression.
Previously we thought that html5 mode always required base[href]
to be set in order for urls to resolve properly. It turns out that
base[href] is problematic because it makes anchor urls (#foo) to
always resolve to the base url, which is almost always incorrect
and results in all anchors links and other anchor urls (e.g. svg
references) to be broken.
For this reason, we should now start recommending that people just
deploy to root context (/) and not set the base[href] when using
the html5 mode (push/pop history state).
If it's impossible to deploy to the root context then either all
urls in the app must be absolute or base[href] must be set with the
caveat that anchor urls in such app won't work.
Closes#2762
jQuery switched to a completely new event binding implementation as of
1.7.0, centering around on/off methods instead of previous bind/unbind.
This patch makes jqLite match this implementation while still supporting
previous bind/unbind methods.
$route, $routeParams and ngView have been pulled from core angular.js
to angular-route.js/ngRoute module.
This is was done to in order keep the core focused on most commonly
used functionality and allow community routers to be freely used
instead of $route service.
There is no need to panic, angular-route will keep on being supported
by the angular team.
Note: I'm intentionally not fixing tutorial links. Tutorial will need
bigger changes and those should be done when we update tutorial to
1.2.
BREAKING CHANGE: applications that use $route will now need to load
angular-route.js file and define dependency on ngRoute module.
Before:
```
...
<script src="angular.js"></script>
...
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['someOtherModule']);
...
```
After:
```
...
<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="angular-route.js"></script>
...
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'someOtherModule']);
...
```
Closes#2804
In situations where path() matched basepath and we needed to
convert from html5 url to hashbang url, the $location service
considered the url to be already rewritten, which resulted in
an error.
When user clicks a link, $location needs to intercept this event. The <a> doesn't have to be target element of the DOM event, so it needs to traverse the DOM, to find first <a> parent.
If the target element was removed from DOM, during the same event, it would throw an exception. This fixes the issue.
Closes#1058
This is a second fix for a regression that was introduced by 92a2e180.
The fix addresses scenarios when the $location service is configured with
a hash prefix.
Closes#1037
The url used for location parsing was quite strict and did not support
custom url schemes like "chrome-extension://". With this change the only
requirement for scheme is that it doesn't contain ":" character.
previously we were doing all kinds of checks to see if we should rewrite the url or not and we
were missing many scenarios. not any more.
with this change, we rewrite the url unless:
- the href is not set
- link has target attribute
- the absolute url of the link doesn't match the absolute prefix for all urls in our app
This also means that ng-ext-link attribute which we previously used to distinguish external
links from app links is not necessary any more. apps can just set target=_self to prevent
rewriting.
BREAKING CHANGE: ng-ext-link directive was removed because it's unnecessary
apps that relied on ng-ext-link should simply replace it with target=_self
