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.
Remove mention of global controller functions
Convert larger examples to runnable demos
Remove mention of pre-1.0 controllers, in particular discussion of
controller inheritance.
TODO: Probably could do with updating to explain the "controller as" syntax
at some point.
Closes: #4373
Wording has been changed in two of the examples to read naturally.
For example:
From: 'Do not use controllers for to run stateless or stateful code
shared across controllers'
To: 'Do not use controllers for sharing stateless or stateful code
across controllers'
Closes#3454
$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
we now have two types of namespaces:
- true namespace: angular.* - used for all global apis
- virtual namespace: ng.*, ngMock.*, ... - used for all DI modules
the virual namespaces have services under the second namespace level (e.g. ng.)
and filters and directives prefixed with filter: and directive: respectively
(e.g. ng.filter:orderBy, ng.directive:ngRepeat)
this simplifies urls and makes them a lot shorter while still avoiding name collisions
