2.0.0-rc.0 (2016-09-28)

RC0 requires changes to the structure of your app. To get started updating your app see the Steps to Upgrade below.

  • Ionic 2 API finalized for 2.0.0 release
  • Angular 2.0.0 final!
  • ionViewCanEnter / ionViewCanLeave lifecycle events
  • Floating Action Button (FAB) lists
  • Ahead of Time (AoT) compiler ready
  • Components can now individually set a mode, which means an app can mix and match iOS / Material Design / Windows Platform modes if that’s desired
  • Typescript 2.0
  • @types support for third-party libraries
  • Move away from gulp (ionic-gulp-tasks) to npm scripts (ionic-app-scripts)
  • Use Rollup for bundling instead of browserify or webpack

BREAKING CHANGES

  • Angular upgrade to 2.0.0
  • Renamed Lifecycle events.
  • Storage has been removed from ionic-angular and placed into a separate module, @ionic/storage. Starters have been updated to add this, make sure to add it to your package.json if you’re using the storage system. See more details here.
  • Nav transitions are queued. For more info on what this means for you see this section.
  • Removed Tabs preloadTabs ability. This is no longer needed with the Ahead of Time (AoT) compiler.
  • Icons in buttons require an attribute on the parent button in order to style them.
  • Platform and mode CSS classes have been moved from the <body> element to the <ion-app> element.
  • Select’s alertOptions input has been renamed to selectOptions. See more details here.
  • Colors should be passed in the color input on components, not added individually as an attribute on the component. See more details here.
  • buttons: <button> becomes <button ion-button>. See more details here and here.
  • Head link tags for CSS files are no longer dynamically updated, but one CSS file is imported. (Future build processes will narrow down the CSS file further to only include what’s used). See more details here.
  • The <scroll-content> element, which is internal to <ion-content>, has been renamed to <div class="scroll-content"> since it was neither a directive nor a web component.
  • <ion-fixed> has been removed, use <div ion-fixed> instead.
  • Sass: Changes to how Sass is imported. See more details here.
  • Typings: We have stopped using the typings tool and have migrated to npm @types. See more details here.
  • Components no longer get a CSS class added based on the component class name. This should be added using the Component selector. See the Steps to Upgrade for more information on this change.

Lifecycle Events Renamed

  • Renamed ionViewLoaded to ionViewDidLoad
  • Removed ionViewDidUnload
  • Removed fireOtherLifecycles from ViewController

Nav Transitions

Nav transitions are now queued. Meaning if you run:

navCtrl.push(Page1);
navCtrl.push(Page2);

Page1 will transition in, then immediately Page2 will transition in. There can never be two transitions happening at the same time.

Page transition promises can now possibly reject the returned promises. Used mainly for ionViewCanEnter and ionViewCanLeave.

Component Colors

Colors are no longer added directly to a component, they should instead be passed in the color attribute.

For example:

<ion-tabs primary>

Becomes

<ion-tabs color="primary">

Or to bind an expression to color:

<ion-navbar [color]="barColor">
   ...
</ion-navbar>

@Component({
  templateUrl: 'build/pages/about/about.html'
})
export class AboutPage {
  barColor: string;

  constructor(private nav: NavController, platform: Platform) {
    this.barColor = platform.is('android') ? 'primary' : 'light';
  }
}

Components with this property:

  • Badge
  • Button
  • Checkbox
  • Chip
  • FAB
  • Icon
  • Item (Item, Item Divider, List Header)
  • Label
  • Navbar
  • Radio
  • Searchbar
  • Segment
  • Spinner
  • Tabs
  • Toggle
  • Toolbar
  • Typography (headers, paragraphs, spans, etc.)

Reason for this change:

  • It was difficult to dynamically add colors to components, especially if the name of the color attribute was unknown in the template.
  • This change keeps the css flat since we aren’t chaining color attributes on components and instead we assign a class to the component which includes the color’s name.
  • This allows you to easily toggle a component between multiple colors.
  • Speeds up performance because we are no longer reading through all of the attributes to grab the color ones.

Select Changes

Select’s alertOptions input has been renamed to selectOptions. It now allows you to pass options for either the alert or action-sheet interface. Refer to their documentation for the options each of them accept.

New Behavior of Button

  • <button> becomes <button ion-button>
  • <a button> becomes <a ion-button>
  • <button ion-item> does not get the ion-button attribute
  • Buttons inside of <ion-item-options> do get the ion-button attribute
  • Removed the category attribute, this should be passed in ion-button instead.

Reason for this change:

  • It was difficult to have custom buttons since buttons automatically received the Ionic styles. The user can now take advantage of adding their own styling to a button if they want it to behave differently than the Ionic button. Keeping the <a> and <button> element and adding ion-button as an attribute gives us the ability to take advantage of the native functionality and built-in accessibility of native elements. If Ionic provided an <ion-button> we’d have to copy over all the possible attributes and events to the real nested button/link (type=submit, formnovalidate, value, autofocus, href, target, focus/blur, download, nofollow, ping, etc). Additionally, Angular 2 does not have the "replace" directive where <ion-button> could be turned into <a ion-button>.
  • Since button was already being used as an attribute to the <a> element, this is more consistent between the two.
  • If a navPush or navPop directive is on an <a ion-button>, Ionic can automatically add the href attribute.
  • A few reasons why we didn’t create <ion-button>

New Behavior of Icons in Buttons

  1. Icon only buttons
<button>
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
</button>

becomes

<button ion-button icon-only>
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
</button>
  1. Icon left of text in a button
<button>
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
  Rainy
</button>

becomes

<button ion-button icon-left>
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
  Rainy
</button>
  1. Icon right of text in a button
<button>
  Rainy
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
</button>

becomes

<button ion-button icon-right>
  Rainy
  <ion-icon name="rainy"></ion-icon>
</button>
  1. Item option buttons - the icon-left attribute should still be added to the <ion-item-options> container and not the button itself.
  2. menuToggle buttons should not get the icon-only attribute

Reason for this change: There was a noticeable performance decrease from us reading in each button to determine where icons were placed and how to style them. This change improves performance. This adds styling so that the buttons and icons will be padded a certain amount, but the user is free to leave these attributes off and style the components themselves.

Update CSS Link Tags

Ionic stylesheets are no longer dynamically loaded per platform. Instead there will be one CSS file to import. Note that future build processes will slim down the CSS file even further to only include component CSS actually used.

In the head of your index.html file, replace:

<!-- ionic dynamically decides which stylesheet to load -->
<link ios-href="build/css/app.ios.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link md-href="build/css/app.md.css" rel="stylesheet">
<link wp-href="build/css/app.wp.css" rel="stylesheet">

With:

<link href="build/main.css" rel="stylesheet">

Sass Import

The default configuration will be updated, but if your existing app is using Sass and importing Ionic Sass files directly you’ll need to update the includePaths of Node Sass.

node_modules/ionic-angular/themes

Next, to include Ionic into your custom Sass file you’ll need to update the Ionic import to this:

@import "ionic.theme.default";

Typings

Any type definitions for third party libraries that are included via the typings tool and are included in the the typings.json file should be updated to use npm @types. An example of how this looks is:

npm install @types/lodash --save-dev --save-exact

Delete the typings.json file, and the typings directory.

Storage

The storage utilities have been moved outside of the framework to a separate library called @ionic/storage.

This library can be installed by executing the following command:

npm install @ionic/storage --save --save-exact

It must be included in the app's NgModule list of providers:

import { Storage } from '@ionic/storage';

...

@NgModule({
  ...
  providers: [Storage]
})

It can then be injected into any class that needs access to it:

import { Storage } from '@ionic/storage';

...

export class MyAwesomePage {
  constructor(public storage: Storage) {
  }

  ionViewDidEnter() {

    this.storage.get('myKey').then( (value:any) => {
      console.log('My value is:', value);
    });
  }
}

Deployment Changes

ionic-angular package includes es5 code with es2015 module import/exports, umd modules, and pure es2015 code. The package.json is set up using the main and module options to make this work seamlessly.

Steps to Upgrade to RC0

We are providing 2 ways to update your app with this release: Copying your Project to a New Project and Modifying your Existing Project. The first way will guide you through creating a new Ionic 2 project and copying your project files to it. This is the easiest way to update your app in our opinion. The second way will step through how to update your existing project. There are a lot of steps involved with this way, and we recommend viewing our conference app for any clarification if you choose this way. This is it! We don’t plan on making any more major API changes after this version.

Note: For details on NgModules you can read the Angular docs on them here

Copying your Project to a New Project

  1. Ensure that you're using npm version 3.x by running:
npm --version

If you are not running 3.x, the easiest way to update is to install the latest version of Node.js.

You can also update npm by following these instructions.

  1. Install the latest Ionic CLI:

Important: if you have installed the beta cli you should run npm uninstall -g ionic first. You need version 2.1.0 for this release. Check your cli version by running ionic -v in the command line.

npm install -g ionic
  1. Create a new Ionic 2 RC0 app:
ionic start --v2 myApp

  1. Copy/paste all of your pages from app/pages/ of your beta.11 app to src/pages/, providers from app/providers to src/providers, pipes from app/pipes to src/pipes and any custom components to src/components in the new RC0 app.

  2. Modify all templateUrl's to be relative to the .ts file. For example in app.component.ts the url should change from build/app.html to app.html and in a page referencing about.html from build/pages/about/about.html to about.html.

  3. Import and add each of your pages to the declarations array and the entryComponents array in src/app/app.module.ts.

  4. Import and add each of your custom components and pipes to the declarations array in src/app/app.module.ts.

  5. Import and add each of your providers to the providers array in src/app/app.module.ts.

  6. Remove any use of the providers, pipes and directives arrays in @Component.

  7. Change any uses of the private TypeScript keyword to public ONLY for component variables that are needed in the associated template.

Note: For details as to why this change has to be made, there is a discussion about it here.

  1. Change <button> to <button ion-button> according to these instructions.

  2. Pass colors to the color attribute : <button primary> changes to <button color="primary">. See component colors above.

  3. Move any Ionic config to the IonicModule.forRoot in app.module.ts. For example, the config should go where it says configObject here: IonicModule.forRoot(MyApp, {configObject}).

  4. Move any variables from the mode specific sass files in your beta.11 app into the theme/variables.scss file under each comment section for the specific mode in the new RC0 app: ios section, md section, wp section.

  5. Add selectors to each of your components that you would like to add custom styling for. These element selectors will be used for scoped sass. Previously a CSS class was dynamically added with the component class name, this is now the proper way to scope your sass for an individual page. For example, adding the page-about selector:

In your component's stylesheet:

page-about {
  #title {
    color: blue;
  }
}

In your component:

@Component({
  selector: 'page-about',
  templateUrl: 'about.html'
})

Modifying your Existing Project

  1. Ensure that you're using npm version 3.x by running:
npm --version

If you are not running 3.x, the easiest way to update is to install the latest version of Node.js.

You can also update npm by following these instructions.

  1. Install the latest Ionic CLI:

Important: if you have installed the beta cli you should run npm uninstall -g ionic first. You need version 2.1.0 for this release. Check your cli version by running ionic -v in the command line.

npm install -g ionic

  1. Update package.json dependencies and devDependencies to match the ionic2-app-base package.json, and then run npm install in your project folder.

  2. Copy the npm scripts from the ionic2-app-base package.json to your package.json.

  3. Delete the gulpfile.js.

  4. Rename the app folder to src.

  5. Create a new directory called app inside of src.

  6. Move the app.html and app.ts files inside of src/app.

  7. Rename app.ts to app.component.ts.

  8. Add an app.module.ts file and copy content from ionic2-starter-blank.

  9. Move any providers from ionicBootstrap in your app.component.ts file to the providers in app.module.ts. Make sure to copy imports, too.

  10. Import and add any of your custom components to the declarations array in src/app/app.module.ts.

  11. Move any Ionic config to the IonicModule.forRoot in app.module.ts. For example, the config should go where it says configObject here: IonicModule.forRoot(MyApp, {configObject}).

  12. Remove the ionicBootstrap code from app.component.ts.

  13. Export the main app class in app.component.ts and then rename all uses of MyApp in app.module.ts to your main app class (or rename the export to MyApp in app.component.ts).

  14. Fix any imports in app.component.ts to use the correct path. For example, ./pages becomes ../pages.

  15. Modify app.module.ts to import your page specific classes. See HomePage, for example. All pages should be included here.

  16. Fix any import paths in app.module.ts. For example, ./providers becomes ../providers.

  17. Add main.dev.ts and main.prod.ts files from ionic2-app-base to app/.

  18. Move www/index.html to src/index.html and modify it to look like ionic2-app-base, make sure to keep any external scripts you have added.

  19. Move www/assets to src/assets.

  20. Move www/img to src/assets/img.

  21. Move any other resources you have in www/ to src/assets/.

  22. Modify all templateUrl's to be relative to the .ts file. For example in app.component.ts the url should change from build/app.html to app.html and in a page referencing about.html from build/pages/about/about.html to about.html.

  23. Update .gitignore to match ionic2-app-base.

  24. Delete the typings/ folder and typings.json file.

  25. Update tsconfig.json to match ionic2-app-base.

  26. Rename and relocate app/theme/app.variables.scss to src/theme/variables.scss.

  27. Move app Sass rule files from app/theme to src/app. This includes app.core.scss, app.ios.scss, etc.

  28. Move any variables from the mode specific sass files in your beta.11 app into the theme/variables.scss file under each comment section for the specific mode in the new RC0 app: ios section, md section, wp section.

  29. Fix any paths to images in your app. For example, before the path may look like <img src="img/myImg.png"> and now it should be <img src="assets/img/myImg.png">.

  30. Change any uses of the private TypeScript keyword to public ONLY for component variables that are needed in the associated template.

Note: For details as to why this change has to be made, there is a discussion about it here.

  1. Change any Ionic buttons from <button> to <button ion-button>. See New Behavior of Button.

  2. Pass colors to the color attribute: <button primary> changes to <button color="primary">.

  3. Add appropriate icon attributes, if the icon is on the left of the text in a button it should get icon-left, if the icon is on the right add icon-right, and if the button only has an icon in it, add the icon-only attribute to the button. See New Behavior of Icons in Buttons.

  4. Add selectors to each of your components that you would like to add custom styling for. These element selectors will be used for scoped sass. Previously a CSS class was dynamically added with the component class name, this is now the proper way to scope your sass for an individual page. For example, adding the page-about selector:

In your component's stylesheet:

page-about {
  #title {
    color: blue;
  }
}

In your component:

@Component({
  selector: 'page-about',
  templateUrl: 'about.html'
})
  1. Remove any use of the providers, pipes and directives arrays in @Component.

2.0.0-beta.11 (2016-08-05)

BREAKING CHANGES

Overlays

  • Overlay components, such as Alert or Modals, should now be created using its injected provider.

  • Overlays now have the present() method on the overlay’s instance, rather than using nav.present(overlayInstance).

  • All overlays now present on top of all app content, to include menus.

  • Below is an example of the change to Alert, but the pattern is the same for all overlays: ActionSheet, Loading, Modal, Picker, Popover, Toast

    WAS:

    import { NavController, Alert } from ‘ionic-angular’;

constructor(public nav: NavController) {
}

doAlert() {
  let alert = Alert.create({
     title: 'Alert',
  });
  this.nav.present(alert);
}

    NOW:

    import { AlertController } from ‘ionic-angular’;

constructor(public alertCtrl: AlertController) {
}

doAlert() {
  let alert = this.alertCtrl.create({
    title: 'Alert'
  });
  alert.present();
}

Select / Option #7334

The Option component’s checked attribute has been renamed to selected in order to make an option selected. This follows the MDN spec for a select option: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/option

If a ngModel is added to the Select component the value of the ngModel will take precedence over the selected attribute.

See the Select and Option documentation for usage examples.

Tab Input/Config #7143

Tab input/config options have been renamed. The following options were renamed:

  • tabbarHighlight -> tabsHighlight
  • tabbarLayout -> tabsLayout
  • tabSubPages -> tabsHideOnSubPages
  • tabbarPlacement -> tabsPlacement

The previous names have been deprecated. They will still work in the current release but will be removed in the future so please update to the new names.

Material Design Tabs #7455

Material Design mode defaults have changed to the following:

tabsHighlight: false,
tabsPlacement: 'bottom',
tabsHideOnSubPages: false

tabsHighlight can now be passed as an attribute on the ion-tabs element, this allows for tabs to be added in multiple places inside of an app and enable the highlight on some of them.

Styling of the Material Design tabs reflects the spec for bottom navigation: https://material.google.com/components/bottom-navigation.html

To get the old style of tabs, override the config in your bootstrap, for example:

ionicBootstrap(ConferenceApp, [ConferenceData, UserData], {
  platforms: {
    android: {
      tabsPlacement: 'top',
      tabsHideOnSubPages: true,
      tabsHighlight: true
    }
  }
});

And optionally override any of the Sass variables for md mode in theme/app.md.scss:

$tabs-md-tab-text-capitalization: uppercase;
$tabs-md-tab-font-weight: 500;
$tabs-md-tab-text-transform: scale(1);

For a searchable list of all of the Sass variables, see the theming documentation: http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/theming/overriding-ionic-variables/

Input Highlight #6449

Fixed typos in the input highlight variables:

  • $text-input-md-hightlight-color-valid -> $text-input-md-highlight-color-valid
  • $text-input-wp-hightlight-color-valid -> $text-input-wp-highlight-color-valid

Modified variables to turn on/off the highlight:

ios (defaults to false for all):

$text-input-ios-show-focus-highlight: false !default;
$text-input-ios-show-valid-highlight: $text-input-ios-show-focus-highlight !default;
$text-input-ios-show-invalid-highlight: $text-input-ios-show-focus-highlight !default;

md (defaults to true for all):

$text-input-md-show-focus-highlight: true !default;
$text-input-md-show-valid-highlight: $text-input-md-show-focus-highlight !default;
$text-input-md-show-invalid-highlight: $text-input-md-show-focus-highlight !default;

wp (defaults to true for all):

$text-input-wp-show-focus-highlight: true !default;
$text-input-wp-show-valid-highlight: $text-input-wp-show-focus-highlight !default;
$text-input-wp-show-invalid-highlight: $text-input-wp-show-focus-highlight !default;

Steps to Upgrade to Beta 11

  1. Run the following command in a terminal to update the npm dependencies:
npm install --save --save-exact [email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] [email protected] [email protected]
  1. Update all Overlay components to be presented by their controller instead of NavController. For example, to update the popover component, the following code:
constructor(private nav: NavController) {}

presentPopover(event) {
  let popover = Popover.create(PopoverPage);
  this.nav.present(popover, { ev: event });
}

becomes:

constructor(private popoverCtrl: PopoverController) {}

presentPopover(event) {
  let popover = this.popoverCtrl.create(PopoverPage);
  popover.present({ ev: event });
}
  1. Update any uses of ViewController.onDismiss to ViewController.onDidDismiss. The following code on dismiss of a modal:
modal.onDismiss(() => {

});

becomes:

modal.onDidDismiss(() => {

});

  1. Update any uses of checked on an <ion-option> to use selected.

  2. If you are using any of the tab config variables, update them to reflect the new names above.

  3. If you are using any of the Sass Variables to override tabs or input highlights, update them to reflect the new names above.

  4. Please see the Ionic Conference App for an example of upgrading to Beta 11.

2.0.0-beta.10 (2016-06-27)

BREAKING CHANGES

  • ion-content now takes up 100% of the viewport height, but it has margin added to the top and bottom to adjust for headers, footers, and tabs.

  • ion-content now accepts fullscreen as an attribute to to tell the content to scroll behind the header. This allows for transparent toolbars and tab pages without navbars!

  • ion-navbar no longer has the *navbar attribute.

  • ion-navbar should now be wrapped in an ion-header

    <ion-header>
  <ion-navbar></ion-navbar>
</ion-header>

  • ios only: ion-toolbar/ion-navbar will always have borders to both the top and bottom of the element. Use the attributes no-border-top and no-border-bottom to remove the respective borders.

  • An ion-nav or ion-tabs is required in the root component. If one of these does not exist your content may be pushed up behind your header.

  • The position attribute has been removed from the ion-toolbar, it should now be placed in an ion-header or an ion-footer. It can also be placed inside of an ion-content.

  • The only elements that should be children of a page are ion-header, ion-content, and ion-footer.

Steps to Upgrade to Beta 10

  1. Run the following command from your command prompt/terminal to update to the latest version of the Ionic framework 2:
npm install --save [email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected]  @angular/[email protected]
  1. Remove the *navbar attribute so this:
<ion-navbar *navbar>

becomes this:

<ion-navbar>
  1. Wrap any toolbars/navbars above the ion-content in an ion-header. The following:
<ion-navbar>
  <ion-title>
    Navbar Title
  </ion-title>
</ion-navbar>

<ion-toolbar>
  <ion-title>
    Toolbar Title
  </ion-title>
</ion-toolbar>

<ion-content>

</ion-content>

becomes:

<ion-header>
  <ion-navbar>
    <ion-title>
      Navbar Title
    </ion-title>
  </ion-navbar>

  <ion-toolbar>
    <ion-title>
      Toolbar Title
    </ion-title>
  </ion-toolbar>
</ion-header>

<ion-content>

</ion-content>
  1. Wrap any toolbars/navbars after the ion-content in an ion-footer. The following:
<ion-content>

</ion-content>

<ion-toolbar position="bottom">
  <ion-title>Footer Toolbar</ion-title>
</ion-toolbar>

becomes:

<ion-content>

</ion-content>

<ion-footer>

2.0.0-beta.9 (2016-06-16)

BREAKING CHANGES

Searchbar Refactored

  • Searchbar's events no longer emit the Searchbar itself, they now emit the input's $event for each native input event. Instead of grabbing the value from the searchbar, you should grab it from the event target. For example:

    Previously when an event was called the function called would look similar to this:

    getItems(searchbar) {
  // set q to the value of the searchbar input
  var q = searchbar.value;
}

    Now it should be similar to this:

    getItems(ev) {
  // set q to the value of the searchbar input
  var q = ev.target.value;
}

  • ngModel is no longer required on Searchbar, but it can still be used. You can get the value of the input through Searchbar's Output Events.

  • Added the ability to pass autocomplete, autocorrect, spellcheck, and type to the searchbar which is passed to the input.

2.0.0-beta.8 (2016-06-06)

BREAKING CHANGES

Ionic Decorators Removed

We’ve started the process of optimizing Ionic 2 to improve our support for Progressive Web Apps and upcoming Angular tooling. Because of this, we have removed the Ionic decorators in favor of using Angular's Component decorator. The following changes need to be made. For a step by step guide, see the Steps to Upgrade to Beta 8 section.

  • @App and @Page should be replaced with @Component.
  • IonicApp has been renamed to App.
  • ionicBootstrap is required to bootstrap the app.
  • Config is now the 3rd parameter in ionicBootstrap(rootComponent, providers, config).
  • Property prodMode is now a config option, enabling or disabling production mode.

Ionic Lifecycle Events Renamed

Steps to Upgrade to Beta 8

  1. Upgrade to Beta 8 by running the following command:
npm install --save [email protected]

or modify the following line to use beta.8 in your package.json and then run npm install:

"ionic-angular": "^2.0.0-beta.8",

This is the way to update Ionic to any version, more information can be found in the docs.

  1. Replace all instances of @Page with @Component:
import {Page} from 'ionic-angular';

@Page({

})

becomes

import {Component} from '@angular/core';

@Component({

})
  1. Replace @App with @Component and then bootstrap it. Move any config properties into the bootstrap:
import {App, Platform} from 'ionic-angular';

@App({
  templateUrl: 'build/app.html',
  providers: [ConferenceData, UserData],
  config: {
    tabbarPlacement: 'bottom'
}
export class MyApp {

}

becomes

import {Component} from '@angular/core';
import {ionicBootstrap, Platform} from 'ionic-angular';

@Component({
  templateUrl: 'build/app.html',
})
export class MyApp {

}

// Pass the main app component as the first argument
// Pass any providers for your app in the second argument
// Set any config for your app as the third argument:
// http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/api/config/Config/

ionicBootstrap(MyApp, [ConferenceData, UserData], {
  tabbarPlacement: 'bottom'
});
  1. Rename any uses of IonicApp to App:
import {IonicApp} from 'ionic-angular';

constructor(
  private app: IonicApp
) {

becomes

import {App} from 'ionic-angular';

constructor(
  private app: App
) {
  1. Rename any uses of the lifecycle events, for example:
onPageDidEnter() {
  console.log("Entered page!");
}

becomes

ionViewDidEnter() {
  console.log("Entered page!");
}

The full list of lifecycle name changes is in the section above.

  1. Rename any Ionic events, for example:
<ion-slides (slideChangeStart)="onSlideChangeStart($event)">

becomes

<ion-slides (ionWillChange)="onSlideChangeStart($event)">

The full list of event name changes is in the section above.

BREAKING CHANGES

Angular Update to 2.0.0-rc.1

Angular has been updated to 2.0.0-rc.1, follow these steps to update Angular.

  1. Edit your package.json and remove the angular2 entry:
"angular2": "2.0.0-beta.15"
  1. Then, run the following command from a terminal to update Ionic and Angular, or take a look at the starter's package.json changes and update each version:
npm install --save [email protected] @angular/core @angular/compiler @angular/common @angular/platform-browser @angular/platform-browser-dynamic @angular/router @angular/http [email protected] [email protected] reflect-metadata
  1. Run the following command from a terminal to update the gulp task for ionic-gulp-scripts-copy:
npm install --save-dev [email protected]
  1. Then, change any imports in your application from angular2 to @angular. For example, the following:
import {ViewChild} from 'angular2/core';
import {Http} from 'angular2/http';

becomes

import {ViewChild} from '@angular/core';
import {Http} from '@angular/http';
  1. Remove the import for angular2-polyfills in index.html:
 <script src="build/js/angular2-polyfills.js"></script>

and replace it with the following scripts:

<script src="build/js/zone.js"></script>
<script src="build/js/Reflect.js"></script>
  1. Replace all template variables in ngFor with let. For example:
*ngFor="#session of group.sessions"

becomes

*ngFor="let session of group.sessions"
  1. Replace all template variables in virtualScroll. For example:
*virtualItem="#item"

becomes

*virtualItem="let item"
  1. View the Angular Changelog for more in depth changes.

IonicApp (df32836) references #6199

The getComponent method of IonicApp has been removed. Please use Angular's ViewChild instead.

For example, the following:

<ion-nav id="nav" [root]="rootPage" #content></ion-nav>
import {IonicApp} from 'ionic-angular';

@App({
  templateUrl: 'build/app.html'
})
class MyApp {
  constructor(private app: IonicApp) {}

  setPage() {
    let nav = this.app.getComponent('nav');
    nav.push(MyPage);
  }
}

Should be changed (in TypeScript) to use the Nav ViewChild:

<ion-nav [root]="rootPage" #content></ion-nav>
import {ViewChild} from '@angular/core';
import {Nav} from 'ionic-angular';

@App({
  templateUrl: 'build/app.html'
})
class MyApp {
  @ViewChild(Nav) nav: Nav;

  constructor() {}

  setPage() {
    this.nav.push(MyPage);
  }
}

and the same example (in JavaScript):

import {ViewChild} from '@angular/core';

@App({
  templateUrl: 'build/app.html',
  queries: {
    nav: new ViewChild('content')
  }
})
class MyApp {
  constructor() {}

  setPage() {
    this.nav.push(MyPage);
  }
}

Please see the Ionic Conference App for more usage examples.

Router

The Angular router is currently under heavy development and refactoring. As a result of this, Angular’s router is currently disabled within Ionic. If your app requires use of the router we recommend waiting until a future release of Ionic when Angular has completed work on the new router. However, this does not affect Ionic’s navigation system and it continues to work with the same API from previous versions.
