The Buzz Client example on the ngResource
doc was causing parse errors.
While the root cause is being investigated,
the example has been removed, and should be
replaced by a more relevant example anyhow.
Additional API (backwards compatible)
- Injects `$transclude` (see directive controllers) as 5th argument to directive link functions.
- `$transclude` takes an optional scope as first parameter that overrides the
bound scope.
Deprecations:
- `transclude` parameter of directive compile functions (use the new parameter for link functions instead).
Refactorings:
- Don't use comment node to temporarily store controllers
- `ngIf`, `ngRepeat`, ... now all use `$transclude`

This significantly increases the size of the loader:

Hiding `_*` properties was a feature primarily for developers using Closure compiler and Google JS

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
params and paramDefaults support looking up the parameter value from the
data object. The syntax for that is `@nested.property.name`.
Currently, $resource uses $parse to do this. This is too liberal
(you can use values like `@a=b` or `@a | filter` and have it work -
which doesn't really make sense). It also puts up a dependency on
$parse which is has restrictions to secure expressions used in
templates. The value here, though a string, is specified in Javascript
code and shouldn't have those restrictions.
The way that enabling of animations was set up, made it impossible to inject a
module into the bootstrap to disable animations for things like end 2 end tests.
Now animations are temporarily blocked by setting the animation state to RUNNING
during bootstrap, which allows the developer to permanently disable at any point
by calling $animate.enabled(false).

BREAKING CHANGE: jqLite#scope() does not return the isolate scope on the element
that triggered directive with isolate scope. Use jqLite#isolateScope() instead.
When an isolate scope directive is also a "replace" directive and at the root of its template
it has other directives, we need to keep track remember to use isolate scope when linking
these.
This commit fixes the leakage of this state when this directive is used again later inside
or outside of the isolate directive template.
Fixes an issue when we didn't share the isolate scope with the controller
of the directive from the isolate directive's template when this directive
was replaced onto the isolate directive element.
I had to fix one unit test, as it assumed the broken behavior, where application template gets the
isolate scope of other (isolate) directive, rather than the regular scope.
BREAKING CHANGE: Child elements that are defined either in the application template or in some other
directives template do not get the isolate scope. In theory, nobody should rely on this behavior, as
it is very rare - in most cases the isolate directive has a template.
Fixes issue with isolate scope leaking all over the place into other directives on the same element.
Isolate scope is now available only to the isolate directive that requested it and its template.
A non-isolate directive should not get the isolate scope of an isolate directive on the same element,
instead they will receive the original scope (which is the parent scope of the newly created isolate scope).
Paired with Tobias.
BREAKING CHANGE: Directives without isolate scope do not get the isolate scope from an isolate directive on the same element. If your code depends on this behavior (non-isolate directive needs to access state from within the isolate scope), change the isolate directive to use scope locals to pass these explicitly.
// before
<input ng-model="$parent.value" ng-isolate>

return {
scope: {},
template: '{{value}}'
};

.directive('ngIsolate', function() {
return {
scope: {value: '=ngModel'},
template: '{{value}}

This refactors the filter guide docs into a single file.
Also removes out of date references to the fact that Angular used to enhance Arrays while evaluating expressions.
Before, there we multiple overview docs:
- guide/overview
- guide/introduction
- guide/dev_guide.mvc
- guide/dev_guide.mvc.understanding_model
- guide/dev_guide.mvc.understanding_view
- guide/concepts
Now we have:
- guide/introduction: High level description of Angular with the key benefits but without code or any concrete concepts
- guide/concepts: explains all important concepts with a simple example and contains deep links to the other parts of the guide.
All the old information was moved into existing documents or deleted when they were duplicates.
We need to wait until animations have added the content to the document before
trying to `autoscroll` to anchors that may have been inserted.
Fixes#4723
BREAKING CHANGE
ngAnimate addClass / removeClass animations are now applied right away. This means
that as soon as the animation starts the class will be added (addClass) or removed
(removeClass) to the element being animated instead of after the -add-active /
-remove-active animations are completed. This allows for animations outside of
ngAnimate to not conflict with $animate.
This commit introduces beforeAddClass and beforeRemoveClass animation event functions and
executes any addClass and removeClass event functions AFTER the class has been added or
removed (this is opposite functionality of how ngAnimate used to work when performing
JS-enabled animations addClass / removeClass animations). If your animation code relies on
any animations being performed prior to the class change then simply use the new
beforeAddClass and beforeRemoveClass animation event functions.
Finally, when animating show and hide animations using CSS transitions or keyframe animations,
ng-hide-remove doesn't require `display:block!important` for ng-hide-add anymore.
The msie variable is a global variable used within the ng core which contains the
version number for the current Internet Explorer browser that is rendering the
application. Other modules outside of the ng core could make use of this variable
instead of having to rollout duplicate detection code. This code makes it easy to
reuse this simple property within the $sniffer service.
Due to animations, DOM might get destroyed much later than scope and so the element $destroy event
might get fired outside of $digest, which causes changes to the validation model go unobserved
until the next digest. By deregistering on scope event, the deregistration always happens
in $digest and the form validation model changes will be observed.
Closes#4226Closes#4779
BREAKING CHANGE:
This commit introduces the notion of "private" properties (properties
whose names begin and/or end with an underscore) on the scope chain.
These properties will not be available to Angular expressions (i.e. {{
}} interpolation in templates and strings passed to `$parse`) They are
freely available to JavaScript code (as before).
Motivation
----------
Angular expressions execute in a limited context. They do not have
direct access to the global scope, Window, Document or the Function
constructor. However, they have direct access to names/properties on
the scope chain. It has been a long standing best practice to keep
sensitive APIs outside of the scope chain (in a closure or your
controller.) That's easier said that done for two reasons: (1)
JavaScript does not have a notion of private properties so if you need
someone on the scope chain for JavaScript use, you also expose it to
Angular expressions, and (2) the new "controller as" syntax that's now
in increased usage exposes the entire controller on the scope chain
greatly increaing the exposed surface. Though Angular expressions are
written and controlled by the developer, they (1) typically deal with
user input and (2) don't get the kind of test coverage that JavaScript
code would. This commit provides a way, via a naming convention, to
allow publishing/restricting properties from controllers/scopes to
Angular expressions enabling one to only expose those properties that
are actually needed by the expressions.
When using ngIf with ngInclude on the same element, ngIf previously did not remove
elements added by ngInclude. Similarly, when using ngIfStart/End, ngIf will miss
elements added between the start/end markers added after ngIf is linked.
This commit changes the behavior of ngIf to add a comment node at the end of its
elements such that elements between the starting comment and this ending comment
are removed when ngIf's predicate does not hold.
The name of the example module is `ngView`, which might cause needless confusion.
Changed name to `ngViewExample`, which should make it clearer.
Closes#4702
Annotation allows the angular-mocks to be minified, which sometimes happens with frameworks that
automatically process files before running tests.
Also, some developers have been using this library in code for their applications.
This is not recommended as the library is only designed to support testing and not production
applications. If you are likely to want to use the code here in production you would be best
forking and maintaining your own version of the code as we will not guarantee that we won't
break the annotation of the code in the future.
Closes#4448
Recently we changed the priority of attribute interpolation directive to -100
to ensure that it executes early in the post linking phase. This causes issues
with when terminal directives are placed on elements with attribute bindings
because the terminal directive will usually have 0 or higher priority which
results in attr interpolation directive not being applied to the element.
To fix this issue I'm switching the priority back to 100 and making moving the
binding setup into the pre-linking function.
This means that:
- terminal directives with priority lower than 100 will not affect the attribute
binding
- if a directive wants to add or alter bindings it can do so in the pre-linking
phase, as long as the priority of this directive is more than 100
- all post-linking functions will execute after the attribute binding has been
set up
- all pre-linking functions with directive priority lower than 100 will execute
after the attribute bindings have been setup
BREAKING CHANGE: the attribute interpolation (binding) executes as a directive
with priority 100 and the binding is set up in the pre-linking phase. It used
to be that the priority was -100 in rc.2 (100 before rc.2) and that the binding
was setup in the post-linking phase.

When we refactored , we broke the csp mode because the previous implementation
relied on the fact that it was ok to lazy initialize the .csp property, this

stylesheet when csp is active, so I refactored the code to fix both issues.

Issue an error and abort compilation when two directives that ask for transclusion are found
on a single element. This configuration is not supported and we previously failed to issue
the error because in the case of element transclusion the compilation is re-started and this
caused the compilation context to be lost.
The ngRepeat directive has been special-cased to bypass this warning because it knows how to
handle this scenario internally.
This is not an ideal solution to the problem of multiple transclusions per element, we are
hoping to have this configuration supported by the compiler in the future. See #4357.

BREAKING CHANGE: the priority of ngRepeat, ngSwitchWhen, ngIf,
ngInclude and ngView has changed. This could affect directives that
explicitly specify their priority.
In order to make ngRepeat, ngSwitchWhen, ngIf, ngInclude and ngView
work together in all common scenarios their directives are being
adjusted to achieve the following precendence:
Directive | Old Priority | New Priority
=============================================
ngRepeat | 1000 | 1000
---------------------------------------------
ngSwitchWhen | 500 | 800
---------------------------------------------
ngIf | 1000 | 600
---------------------------------------------
ngInclude/ngView | 1000 | 400
Array.prototype.sort is speced out to be as potentionally unstable sort,
which is how it's implemented in FF and IE. This has caused the order
of directives with the same priority to vary between browsers.
For consistency sake, we now consider directive name and registration,
order when determining the order of directives with the same priority.
Note: it is still possible to get into a situation when the directive
order is underministic - when source files are loaded asynchronously
in non-deterministic order and there are are directives registered
with the same name and priority, the order in which they will be applied
will depend on the file load order.
The routeUtils.js file was declaring a number of functions that were

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.

Issue: multi-elements ng-repeat (ng-repeat-start, ng-repeat-end) can contain elements with a trancluding directive. This directive changes content of the row (template) and ng-repeat does not work correctly (when removing/moving rows), because ng-repeat works with the original template (elements).
This changes ng-repeat behavior to traverse the DOM to find current elements everytime we are moving/removing rows (if the template has multiple elements).
Closes#3104
Since c785267e jqLite uses setAttribute (rather than className property) in order to change classes. Some elements (eg. Comment) do not have this method which blows up.
jQuery silently ignores these method calls (because it uses className), so to get the same behavior as jQuery, we check for setAttribute method first.
This reverts commit 3a65822023.
The change cased regressions in third party components that require
promises from getter functions not to be unwrapped.
Since we have deprecated the promise unwrapping support in $parse it
doesn't make much sense to fix this issue and deal with regressions in
third party code.
Closes#4158
This commit disables promise unwrapping and adds
$parseProvider.unwrapPromises() getter/setter api that allows developers
to turn the feature back on if needed. Promise unwrapping support will
be removed from Angular in the future and this setting only allows for
enabling it during transitional period.
If the unwrapping is enabled, Angular will log a warning about each
expression that unwraps a promise (to reduce the noise, each expression
is logged only onces). To disable this logging use
`$parseProvider.logPromiseWarnings(false)`.
Previously promises found anywhere in the expression during expression
evaluation would evaluate to undefined while unresolved and to the
fulfillment value if fulfilled.
This is a feature that didn't prove to be wildly useful or popular,
primarily because of the dichotomy between data access in templates
(accessed as raw values) and controller code (accessed as promises).
In most code we ended up resolving promises manually in controllers
or automatically via routing and unifying the model access in this way.
Other downsides of automatic promise unwrapping:
- when building components it's often desirable to receive the
raw promises
- adds complexity and slows down expression evaluation
- makes expression code pre-generation unattractive due to the
amount of code that needs to be generated
- makes IDE auto-completion and tool support hard
- adds too much magic
BREAKING CHANGE: $parse and templates in general will no longer
automatically unwrap promises. This feature has been deprecated and
if absolutely needed, it can be reenabled during transitional period
via `$parseProvider.unwrapPromises(true)` api.

`checkboxInputType` and `ngList` directives need to have special logic for whether
they are empty or not. Previously this had been hard coded into their
own directives or the `ngRequired` directive. This made it difficult to handle
these special cases.
This change factors out the question of whether an input is empty into a method
`$isEmpty` on the `ngModelController`. The `ngRequired` directive now uses this
method when testing for validity and directives, such as `checkbox` or `ngList`
can override it to apply logic specific to their needs.
Closes#3490, #3658, #2594
The $interval service simplifies creating and testing recurring tasks.
This service does not increment $browser's outstanding request count,
which means that scenario tests and Protractor tests will not timeout
when a site uses a polling function registered by $interval. Provides
a workaround for #2402.
For unit tests, repeated tasks can be controlled using ngMock$interval's
tick(), tickNext(), and tickAll() functions.
This reverts commit 281feba4ca.
Since Lexer and Parser objects are stateful it is not safe
to reuse them for parsing of multiple expressions.
After recent refactoring into prototypical style, the instantiation
of these objects is so cheap that it's not a huge win to use
singletons here.
Objects received from outside AngularJS may have had their `hasOwnProperty`
method overridden with something else. In cases where we can do this without
incurring a performance penalty we call directly on Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty
to ensure that we use the correct method.
Also, we have some internal hash objects, where the keys for the map are provided
from outside AngularJS. In such cases we either prevent `hasOwnProperty` from
being used as a key or provide some other way of preventing our objects from
having their `hasOwnProperty` overridden.
BREAKING CHANGE: Inputs with name equal to "hasOwnProperty" are not allowed inside
form or ngForm directives.
Before, inputs whose name was "hasOwnProperty" were quietly ignored and not added
to the scope. Now a badname exception is thrown.
Using "hasOwnProperty" for an input name would be very unusual and bad practice.
Either do not include such an input in a `form` or `ngForm` directive or change
the name of the input.

This reduces memory consumption of parsed angular expressions and

This JSPerf case demonstrates the performance boost:
http://jsperf.com/closure-vs-prototype-ngparser

IE: 4x boost

previously the compile/link fns executed in this order controlled via priority:
- CompilePriorityHigh, CompilePriorityMedium, CompilePriorityLow
- PreLinkPriorityHigh, PreLinkPriorityMedium, PreLinkPriorityLow
- link children
- PostLinkPriorityHigh, PostLinkPriorityMedium, PostLinkPriorityLow
This was changed to:
- CompilePriorityHigh, CompilePriorityMedium, CompilePriorityLow
- PreLinkPriorityHigh, PreLinkPriorityMedium, PreLinkPriorityLow
- link children
- PostLinkPriorityLow, PostLinkPriorityMedium , PostLinkPriorityHigh
Using this order the child transclusion directive that gets replaced
onto the current element get executed correctly (see issue #3558),
and more generally, the order of execution of post linking function
makes more sense. The incorrect order was an oversight that has
gone unnoticed for many suns and moons.
(FYI: postLink functions are the default linking functions)
BREAKING CHANGE: the order of postLink fn is now mirror opposite of
the order in which corresponding preLinking and compile functions
execute.
Very few directives in practice rely on order of postLinking function
(unlike on the order of compile functions), so in the rare case
of this change affecting an existing directive, it might be necessary
to convert it to a preLinking function or give it negative priority
(look at the diff of this commit to see how an internal attribute
interpolation directive was adjusted).
Closes#3558
Previously we would stop the compilation for both regular and element
transclusion directives which was wrong. Only element transclusion directives
should be terminal.
The `angular.bind` function reflects the definition of "partial application", which
reduces a function's arity rather than transforming a function with n args into a
chain of n functions, each having a single arg.

partial application : f(x,y,z) -> f(x)(y,z)

The current comment of Attributes.$observe doesn't state correctly the behavior when the attribute contains no interpolation. Specifically, it states that the observer function will never be invoked if the attribute contains no interpolation. However, the actual behavior in this case is that the observer will be invoked once during the next digest loop.
Fix wrong behaviour that didn't allow 'data-on' and 'on' element attributes
to be interpolated by $compile. The regex now accepts any string beginning
with 'on' and with at least one more English letter.
This is a breaking change. To migrate to the new behavior,
delete or set headers to `undefined` to avoid having them sent.
To restore the old behavior, override `$httpBackendProvider`
with the old implementation.
Closes#2984

How did compiling a templateUrl (async) directive with `replace:true` work before this commit?
1/ apply all directives with higher priority than the templateUrl directive
2/ partially apply the templateUrl directive (create `beforeTemplateNodeLinkFn`)
3/ fetch the template
4/ apply second part of the templateUrl directive on the fetched template
(`afterTemplateNodeLinkFn`)
That is, the templateUrl directive is basically split into two parts (two `nodeLinkFn` functions),
which has to be both applied.
Normally we compose linking functions (`nodeLinkFn`) using continuation - calling the linking
function of a parent element, passing the linking function of the child elements as an argument. The
parent linking function then does:
1/ execute its pre-link functions
2/ call the child elements linking function (traverse)
3/ execute its post-link functions
Now, we have two linking functions for the same DOM element level (because the templateUrl directive
has been split).
There has been multiple issues because of the order of these two linking functions (creating
controller before setting up scope locals, running linking functions before instantiating
controller, etc.). It is easy to fix one use case, but it breaks some other use case. It is hard to
decide what is the "correct" order of these two linking functions as they are essentially on the
same level.
Running them side-by-side screws up pre/post linking functions for the high priority directives
(those executed before the templateUrl directive). It runs post-linking functions before traversing:
```js
beforeTemplateNodeLinkFn(null); // do not travers
afterTemplateNodeLinkFn(afterTemplateChildLinkFn);
```
Composing them (in any order) screws up the order of post-linking functions. We could fix this by
having post-linking functions to execute in reverse order (from the lowest priority to the highest)
which might actually make a sense.
**My solution is to remove this splitting.** This commit removes the `beforeTemplateNodeLinkFn`. The
first run (before we have the template) only schedules fetching the template. The rest (creating
scope locals, instantiating a controller, linking functions, etc) is done when processing the
directive again (in the context of the already fetched template; this is the cloned
`derivedSyncDirective`).
We still need to pass-through the linking functions of the higher priority directives (those
executed before the templateUrl directive), that's why I added `preLinkFns` and `postLinkFns`
arguments to `applyDirectivesToNode`.
This also changes the "$compile transclude should make the result of a transclusion available to the
parent directive in post- linking phase (templateUrl)" unit test. It was testing that a parent
directive can see the content of transclusion in its pre-link function. That is IMHO wrong (as the
`ngTransclude` directive inserts the translusion in its linking function). This test was only passing because of
c173ca4128, which changed the behavior of the compiler to traverse
before executing the parent linking function. That was wrong and also caused the #3792 issue, which
this change fixes.

In the Android browser, the BFCache maintains
the state of JavaScript applications even when
navigating to another app, so that going

Unfortunately, this can have undesired side
effects. In this instance, the location
