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
