Migration guide​

Program folder refactor​

In order to accommodate multiple AngularApp instances, a folder structure similar to Application has been adopted. This means that in the angular folder you should relocate the ext, harvest and model folder present to a subpath /angularApps/{angularAppName}. You should not move the featureModules folder.

before
angular
├── ext
├── harvest
├── model
.   └── space-app.xml
after
angular
├── angularApps
.   ├── space-app
    .   ├── ext
        ├── harvest
        ├── model
        .   └── space-app.xml

Changed allowed value of option angular.isLinkFilterField​

The expanders were refactored to correctly find the required DataConnector in the available dataConnectors of the AngularApp. A new find algorithm has been put in place to do this, this algorithm does not rely on the DataRef anymore. This is why the value of the option has been changed to only the name of the DataConnector.

before
featureModuleName::dataConnectorName
after
dataConnectorName

Branding​

Login component​

Due to popular request the generated login component can be fully customised when using the option angular.hasCustomBranding. This will now give you custom anchors in the login.component.html and login.component.scss files, instead of only the option to change the images.

Title tag in index.html​

When using the option angular.hasCustomBranding, custom anchors will appear to set the title tag of your index.html. This is used in the browser tabs, when no other title is set via the angular router. When not filled in, it will put the url in the browser tab. Before the title was always angularAppName.
