3.9.0 (2017-11-08)

Upgrade Instructions

ionic-angular 3.9.0 adds support for @angular 5.0.0 🎉! It is a drop-in replacement for ionic-angular 3.8.x.

To update, remove existing node_modules and any lock files, and then update package.json to the following deps.

"dependencies" : {
  ...
  "@angular/common": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/compiler": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/compiler-cli": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/core": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/forms": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/http": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/platform-browser": "5.0.0",
  "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "5.0.0",
  "@ionic/storage": "2.1.3",
  "ionic-angular": "3.9.0",
  "rxjs": "5.5.2",
  "zone.js": "0.8.18"
  ...
},
"devDependencies: {
  "@ionic/app-scripts": "3.1.0",
  "typescript" : "2.4.2"
}

If your app uses RXJS, see the instructions below to update.

RXJS 5.5.2 Updates

The recent update of RXJS includes a change in how operators are applied.

Traditionally, operators were applied like this:

import 'rxjs/add/operator/debounceTime';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/switchMap';

export MyClass {


  someMethod(){
    // Using Reactive Forms
    this.input.valueChanges
    .debounceTime(500)
    .switchMap(inputVal => this.service.get(inputVal))
    .subscribe(res => console.log(res))
  }
}

This approach involved modifying the Observable prototype and patching on the methods.

RXJS 5.5 introduces a different way to do this that can lead to significantly smaller code bundles, lettable operators.

To use lettable operators, modify the code from above to look like this:

//Use Deep imports here for smallest bunlde size
import { debounceTime } from 'rxjs/operators/debounceTime';
import { switchMap } from 'rxjs/operators/switchMap';

export MyClass {


  someMethod(){
    // Using Reactive Forms
    // We use the new `.pipe` method on the observable
    // too apply operators now

    this.input.valueChanges
    .pipe(
      debounceTime(500),
      switchMap(inputVal => this.service.get(inputVal))
    )
    .subscribe(res => console.log(res))
  }
}

This slight change allows only import the operators we need in our code. This will result in a smaller, faster application. This example uses Deep Imports, which allow the module we want to import to be isolated.

Take a look at this doc for more information.

npm install -g ionic@latest
npm install @ionic/app-scripts@2.1.4 --save-dev
npm install ionic-angular@3.6.1 --save

3.6.0 (2017-07-27)

Upgrade Instructions

ionic-angular 3.6.0 requires developer's to update to the latest version of the Ionic CLI and @ionic/app-scripts.

To upgrade, please run

npm install -g ionic@latest
npm install @ionic/app-scripts@latest --save-dev
npm install ionic-angular@latest --save

Notes

The URL when using deep linking is shortened and improved in this release. Due to a limitation in our nav system, if you're using ion-tabs and have a tab name that matches a segment, meaning you have a tab name of schedule and a segment of schedule, there could potentially be issues. To mitigate these issues, make sure you set the tabUrlPath property on the ion-tab and give it a unique name. This limitation will require an API change to fix so it will be resolved in ionic-angular 4.x.

The upgrades include necessary changes to generators that add back lazy loading functionality, as well as an improved way of generating component/directives/and pipes.

New Generators

The release adds back the functionality to generate lazy loaded pages. To generate a lazy loaded page, run:

ionic g page <Page-Name>

This will include a .module.ts file in the page directory created. If you do not want to generate a lazy loaded page, you can run:

ionic g page <Page-Name> --no-module

This will also generate lazy loaded tabs as well, accepting the --no-module flag as well to disable it.

For pipes/components/components, we now generate a shared common module for each of these.

So running:

ionic g component music-card

Will create a components/components.module.ts file that declares and exports the music-card component. We think that this will allow developers to get up and running with custom components much faster and will less overhead.

Bug Fixes

  • list: remove margin of MD buttons in ion-item-options (#12263) (97f9522)
  • nav: make call to setPages return the promise so if it rejects it doesn't get lost (de0f9d5)
  • navigation: account for race conditions in developer's code (4596dbe)
  • navigation: fix bug where that occurred when tab identifier and segment had the exact same string (add0c4e)
  • navigation: fix null pointer exceptions that would occur when destroying a nav controller while its transitioning (584afd0)
  • navigation: reduce urls to minimum set of fields (a8ceee4)

Features

  • generators: refactor generators (400aa54)

3.5.3 (2017-07-14)

Upgrade Instructions

ionic-angular@3.5.3 is a drop-in replacement for 3.5.2. To install it, simply run npm install ionic-angular@3.5.3 --save --save-exact.

Bug Fixes

  • app: restore getActiveNav api (2d49e10)

3.5.2 (2017-07-13)

Upgrade Instructions

ionic-angular@3.5.2 is a drop-in replacement for 3.5.1. To install it, simply run npm install ionic-angular@3.5.2 --save --save-exact.

We have released a new version of our build process for ionic-angular apps, @ionic/app-scripts in conjunction with this release of ionic-angular. While it's not a required update, we recommend it because we have greatly improved the developer experience. Incremental, or update builds while developing are much faster now. We've also added scope hoisting for better start-up performance on production builds.

To upgrade to @ionic/app-scripts, run the following command:

rm -rf node_modules
npm install @ionic/app-scripts@2.0.2 --save-dev --save-exact

After installing the update, you'll need to make a minor change to the src/index.html file to include a new <script> tag for build/vendor.js. The reason for this breaking change in @ionic/app-scripts is for faster builds. By separating out the node_modules dependencies into a vendor.js file, the incremental build is faster.

...
<body>

  <!-- Ionic's root component and where the app will load -->
  <ion-app></ion-app>

  <!-- cordova.js required for cordova apps -->
  <script src="cordova.js"></script>

  <!-- The polyfills js is generated during the build process -->
  <script src="build/polyfills.js"></script>

  <!-- The vendor js is generated during the build process
       and includes all files in the node_modules directory -->
  <script src="build/vendor.js"></script>

  <!-- The bundle js is generated during the build process -->
  <script src="build/main.js"></script>

</body>
...

If you're customizing @ionic/app-scripts, we recommend you review the changelog, and update any of your configs accordingly.

Notes

3.5.1 (2017-07-13)

See the 3.5.2 changelog. We had a publishing error here.

3.5.0 (2017-06-28)

Steps to Upgrade

ionic-angular should be set to version 3.5.0.

npm install ionic-angular@3.5.0 --save --save-exact

Notes

There were major improvements made to navigation in this release of ionic-angular. Specifically, we updated Ionic to support a concept of n root navigation elements, instead of just one. This will enable first-class url support for things split-pane. Before 3.5.0, only one section of the screen could be represented in the URL. With these changes, multiple sections can be. Another large change was improving the behavior surrounding browser behaviors, such as the back-and-forward buttons, as well as refresh. In general, Ionic should work much more intuitively in a web browser now.

As a result of these improvements, if you're using deep linking, the urls of the application will be different with 3.5.0 than they were with previous Ionic releases. The URLs will likely change again in the near future with the next round of navigation improvements too. For now, we don't recommend using href attributes in the application. Using the navPush and navPop directives is a better option for now while URL support is being built-out.

Bug Fixes

  • navigation: add isTab check to getSegmentsFromNav (f39c381)
  • navigation: fallback to name if component does not exist on segment (30f69c8)
  • select: _inputUpdated should not be called manually (8dc08f9)
  • select: floating label (e3a8d27), closes #12068
  • tabs: use segment if it exists even if component exists (016b90d)

  • rtl: use multi direction in order to override the default ltr (70b5b6)

3.4.1 (2017-06-16)

Bug Fixes

  • themes: change default app-direction (1ca7df)

3.4.0 (2017-06-15)

Steps to Upgrade

ionic-angular should be set to version 3.4.0 in the package.json dependency list. The latest @angular release 4.1.3 is also supported. Feel free to update apps by updating the package.json dependencies to match below.

"dependencies": {
  "@angular/common": "4.1.3",
  "@angular/compiler": "4.1.3",
  "@angular/compiler-cli": "4.1.3",
  "@angular/core": "4.1.3",

}

Bug Fixes

Features

Performance Improvements

3.3.0 (2017-05-24)

Steps to Upgrade

ionic-angular now supports the latest @angular (4.1.2), and typescript (2.3.3) versions. Feel free to update apps by updating the package.json dependencies to match below:

"dependencies": {
  "@angular/common": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/compiler": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/compiler-cli": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/core": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/forms": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/http": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/platform-browser": "4.1.2",
  "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "4.1.2",
  "@ionic-native/core": "3.10.2",
  "@ionic-native/splash-screen": "3.10.2",
  "@ionic-native/status-bar": "3.10.2",
  "@ionic/storage": "2.0.1",
  "ionic-angular": "3.3.0",
  "ionicons": "3.0.0",
  "rxjs": "5.1.1",
  "sw-toolbox": "3.6.0",
  "zone.js": "0.8.11"
},
"devDependencies": {
  "@ionic/app-scripts": "1.3.7",
  "typescript": "2.3.3"
}

Another optional step is to remove the src/declarations.d.ts file. This is a legacy file introduced early with ionic-angular projects to improve compatibility between TypeScript and third-party libraries. Due to improvements in TypeScript, this file is no longer necessary. By removing this file, the TypeScript compiler will be able to provide more accurate error messages for import statements.

3.0.1 (2017-04-06)

Bug Fixes

3.0.0 (2017-04-05)

Steps to Upgrade to 3.0

With this release comes a major update to Angular (Angular 4.0!), the latest version of TypeScript, and some optional structural changes to your application.

  1. Update your package.json to match the following dependencies, remove the existing node_modules directory, and then run npm install:
"dependencies": {
    "@angular/common": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/compiler": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/compiler-cli": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/core": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/forms": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/http": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/platform-browser": "4.0.0",
    "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic": "4.0.0",
    "@ionic-native/core": "3.4.2",
    "@ionic-native/splash-screen": "3.4.2",
    "@ionic-native/status-bar": "3.4.2",
    "@ionic/storage": "2.0.1",
    "ionic-angular": "3.0.1",
    "ionicons": "3.0.0",
    "rxjs": "5.1.1",
    "sw-toolbox": "3.4.0",
    "zone.js": "^0.8.4"
},
"devDependencies": {
  "@ionic/app-scripts": "1.3.0",
  "typescript": "~2.2.1"
}
  1. Import the BrowserModule in your app/app.module.ts file:
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

and then add it to the imports in the same file:

imports: [
  BrowserModule,
  IonicModule.forRoot(MyApp)
],
  1. If you are using Http, import the HttpModule in your app/app.module.ts file:
import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';

and then add it to the imports in the same file:

imports: [
  BrowserModule,
  HttpModule,
  IonicModule.forRoot(MyApp)
],
  1. Upgrading to Ionic Native 3.x will result in a smaller bundle size. With Ionic Native 3, native functionality was moved from static methods to using Angular injectables.

And that’s it! Your app should still function the same without any issues.

BREAKING CHANGES

Grid

Removed the deprecated (old) grid. See the blog post for more information including steps to migrate: http://blog.ionic.io/build-awesome-desktop-apps-with-ionics-new-responsive-grid/

Typography

The following selectors to style the text color of the native text elements have been removed:

h1[color], h2[color], h3[color], h4[color], h5[color], h6[color], a[color]:not([ion-button]):not([ion-item]):not([ion-fab]), p[color], span[color], b[color], i[color], strong[color], em[color], small[color], sub[color], sup[color]

These have been throwing a deprecation warning since rc.3 but still working. They are officially gone and therefore these elements will not get the color unless the ion-text attribute is added. Please see the documentation for more information: https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/components/typography/Typography/

Slides

The following properties and functions have been printing console warnings and are officially removed:

Slides input options has been removed. Please use the input properties instead.

Slide event ionWillChange has been removed, please use ionSlideWillChange instead.

Slide event ionDidChange has been removed, please use ionSlideDidChange instead.

Slide event ionDrag has been removed, please use ionSlideDrag instead.

Slides getSlider() method has been removed, please use the instance of ion-slides.

What's new

Split Pane

As part of our initiative to improve desktop support we have introduced a new component called Split Pane. Split Pane makes it possible to easily create multi-view layouts. It allows elements, such as a menu or another navigation pane, to be displayed on large viewports. Split Pane can be used to achieve a layout similar to the Gmail (Android) or Mail (Apple) applications.

Angular 2.4.8

Ionic has been updated to depend on Angular 2.4.8, which is the latest version that we have tested and confirmed to be compatible with Ionic. This means that updating to the 2.2.0 release of Ionic will automatically work with all of the performance updates, bug fixes and features in Angular 2.4.8!

Ionic Storage

We recently released the 2.0.0 version of ionic-storage. If you are using Ionic Storage in your application, you need to update to this version of ionic-storage. Attempting to use an older version of ionic-storage with Ionic 2.2.0 will cause errors. You can read about how to update to ionic-storage 2.0.0 here.

    "@ionic/app-scripts": "1.0.0",
    "typescript": "2.0.9"
  }

Note: please ensure you are using the exact TypeScript and Angular versions listed above. There have been issues with the latest versions.

What’s changed?

Internal refactor completed in order to improve tree shaking and dead code removal. The public API, with the exception of the slides component, has stayed the same. However, internally many changes were required so bundlers could better exclude modules which should not be bundled. Ultimately most changes resorted to removing references to window or document, or a module that referenced one of those.

What’s new?

Service Worker Toolbox (sw-toolbox) is now built in to the starters and conference app. This allows you to customize your service worker using a high level API instead of using the raw service worker API. Our out of the box configuration will give your app a good, network independent experience but you can easily customize this to fit your app’s unique use cases.

BREAKING CHANGES

Inputs

As part of the refactor to improve tree shaking the TextArea has been merged into the TextInput class. This means that if you are importing the TextArea class you will need to change this to be TextInput.

Slides

ion-slides was refactored to remove the external dependencies, and rewritten in TypeScript/ES6 modules to again improve tree shaking abilities. In order to work with tree shaking, the options attribute had to be removed. See the Slides API Documentation for usage information.

BREAKING CHANGES

Toolbar

  • Renamed the no-shadow attribute for Material Design header, footer, and tabs to no-border. This is the same attribute used by iOS mode.

  • Moved the border on iOS from each toolbar to the last toolbar in a header, and the first toolbar in a footer. Adding no-border to the header or footer will hide the border.

    For example, the following code:

    <ion-header>
  <ion-navbar no-border-bottom></ion-navbar>
  <ion-toolbar no-border-top></ion-toolbar>
</ion-header>

    will now become:

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

    and if you decide you don't want the border just add no-border to the header: <ion-header no-border>.

  • This means that no-border-top and no-border-bottom will not work on iOS and should be removed from any toolbars using it.

Events

  • The argument passed to the events.subscribe(args) function is no longer an array of parameters. Instead, it will be called with the same parameters used in events.publish(arg1, arg2)

    For example, the following code:

    events.subscribe('user:created', args => {
  console.log('Welcome ', args[0], ' at ', args[1]);
});

    will now become:

    events.subscribe('user:created', (user, time) => {
  console.log('Welcome ', user, ' at ', time);
});

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 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: https://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 ionic-angular@2.0.0-beta.11 @angular/common@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/compiler@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/core@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/http@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/platform-browser@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/platform-browser-dynamic@2.0.0-rc.4 @angular/forms@0.2.0 rxjs@5.0.0-beta.6 zone.js@0.6.12
  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 ionic-angular@2.0.0-beta.10 @angular/common@2.0.0-rc.3 @angular/compiler@2.0.0-rc.3 @angular/platform-browser@2.0.0-rc.3 @angular/platform-browser-dynamic@2.0.0-rc.3 @angular/http@2.0.0-rc.3 @angular/core@2.0.0-rc.3  @angular/router@2.0.0-rc.2

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.

  • The hideCancelButton attribute was removed in favor of showCancelButton which is set to false by default.

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

All Ionic lifecycle events have been renamed from starting with onPage to starting with ionView. These changes were made to make it more clear that the events belong to Ionic on each view.

  • onPageLoaded renamed to ionViewLoaded
  • onPageWillEnter renamed to ionViewWillEnter
  • onPageDidEnter renamed to ionViewDidEnter
  • onPageWillLeave renamed to ionViewWillLeave
  • onPageDidLeave renamed to ionViewDidLeave
  • onPageWillUnload renamed to ionViewWillUnload
  • onPageDidUnload renamed to ionViewDidUnload

Ionic Component Events Renamed

All Ionic component events have been renamed to start with ion. This is to prevent the Ionic events from clashing with native HTML events.

  • Checkbox
    • change -> ionChange
  • DateTime
    • change -> ionChange
    • cancel -> ionCancel
  • InfiniteScroll
    • infinite -> ionInfinite
  • Menu
    • opening -> ionDrag
    • opened -> ionOpen
    • closed -> ionClose
  • Option
    • select -> ionSelect
  • Picker
    • change -> ionChange
  • RadioButton
    • select -> ionSelect
  • RadioGroup
    • change -> ionChange
  • Refresher
    • refresh -> ionRefresh
    • pulling -> ionPull
    • start -> ionStart
  • Searchbar
    • input -> ionInput
    • blur -> ionBlur
    • focus -> ionFocus
    • cancel -> ionCancel
    • clear -> ionClear
  • Segment
    • change -> ionChange
    • select -> ionSelect
  • Select
    • change -> ionChange
    • cancel -> ionCancel
  • Slides
    • willChange -> ionWillChange
    • didChange -> ionDidChange
    • move -> ionDrag
  • TabButton
    • select -> ionSelect
  • Tab
    • select -> ionSelect
  • Tabs
    • change -> ionChange
  • Toggle
    • change -> ionChange

Steps to Upgrade to Beta 8

  1. Upgrade to Beta 8 by running the following command:
npm install --save ionic-angular@2.0.0-beta.8

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 ionic-angular@2.0.0-beta.7 @angular/core @angular/compiler @angular/common @angular/platform-browser @angular/platform-browser-dynamic @angular/router @angular/http rxjs@5.0.0-beta.6 zone.js@0.6.12 reflect-metadata
  1. Run the following command from a terminal to update the gulp task for ionic-gulp-scripts-copy:
npm install --save-dev ionic-gulp-scripts-copy@2.0.0
  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.

Sass Changes
