Report an Issue

Help us make UI-Router better! If you think you might have found a bug, or some other weirdness, start by making sure it hasn't already been reported. You can search through existing issues to see if someone's reported one similar to yours.

If not, then create a plunkr that demonstrates the problem (try to use as little code as possible: the more minimalist, the faster we can debug it).

Next, create a new issue that briefly explains the problem, and provides a bit of background as to the circumstances that triggered it. Don't forget to include the link to that plunkr you created!

Note: If you're unsure how a feature is used, or are encountering some unexpected behavior that you aren't sure is a bug, it's best to talk it out on StackOverflow before reporting it. This keeps development streamlined, and helps us focus on building great software.

Issues only!
Please keep in mind that the issue tracker is for issues. Please do not post an issue if you need help or support. Instead, see one of the above-mentioned forums or IRC.

####Purple Labels A purple label means that you need to take some further action.

  • Not Actionable - Need Info: Your issue is not specific enough, or there is no clear action that we can take. Please clarify and refine your issue.
  • Plunkr Please: Please create a plunkr
  • StackOverflow: We suspect your issue is really a help request, or could be answered by the community. Please ask your question on StackOverflow. If you determine that is an actual issue, please explain why.

If your issue gets labeled with purple label, no further action will be taken until you respond to the label appropriately.

Contribute

(1) See the Developing section below, to get the development version of UI-Router up and running on your local machine.

(2) Check out the roadmap to see where the project is headed, and if your feature idea fits with where we're headed.

(3) If you're not sure, open an RFC to get some feedback on your idea.

(4) Finally, commit some code and open a pull request. Code & commits should abide by the following rules:

  • Always have test coverage for new features (or regression tests for bug fixes), and never break existing tests
  • Commits should represent one logical change each; if a feature goes through multiple iterations, squash your commits down to one
  • Make sure to follow the Angular commit message format so your change will appear in the changelog of the next release.
  • Changes should always respect the coding style of the project

Developing

UI-Router uses npm and webpack.

Fetch the source code

The code for Angular UI-Router is split into two source repositories:

Clone both repositories into directories next to each other.

git clone https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router.git angular-ui-router
git clone https://github.com/ui-router/core.git ui-router-core

Install dependencies

Use npm to install the development dependencies for each repositor.

cd ui-router-core
npm install
cd ../angular-ui-router
npm install
cd ..

Link the directories

This step is necessary if you need to modify any code in ui-router-core. Using npm, link ui-router-core into angular-ui-router

cd ui-router-core
npm link
cd ../angular-ui-router
npm link ui-router-core

After executing these steps, angular-ui-router will be built using your local copy of ui-router-core.

Develop

These scripts may be run in angular-ui-router:

  • npm run build: Compiles TypeScript source
  • npm run package: Compiles TypeScript source and creates webpack bundles.
  • npm test: Runs the angular-ui-router test suite (against Angular 1.2 through 1.5).
  • npm run watch: Continuously compiles the source and runs the angular-ui-router tests (when source or tests change).

Scripts of the same name (in ui-router-core) can be used.

  • npm run build: Compiles ui-router-core TypeScript source
  • npm test: Runs the ui-router-core test suite
  • npm run watch: Continuously compiles the source and runs the ui-router-core test suite (when core source or tests change).

If you've followed the linking instructions, it's useful to run both npm run watch tasks (each task from ui-router-core and angular-ui-router). This ensures that changes to either ui-router-core and angular-ui-router compile successfully and are run against the test suite.
