Before standalone, everything that could appear in an NgModule's `imports`
was relevant to DI, and needed to be emitted in the `imports` of the
generated `InjectorDef` definition. With the introduction of standalone
types, NgModule `imports` can now contain components, directives, and pipes
which are standalone. Only standalone components need to be included in
the `imports` of the generated injector definition - directives and pipes
have no effect on DI. Having them present doesn't cause any errors in the
runtime (they're filtered out by the injector itself) but it does prevent
tree-shaking.
With this commit, the generation of `InjectorDef` now filters the `imports`
to exclude directives and pipes as much as possible. It's not _always_
possible because an expression in `imports` may pull in both a directive and
a `ModuleWithProviders` reference, and we have no way of referencing just
the MWP part of that expression. Therefore this is an optimization, not a
rule of `InjectorDef` compilation.
PR Close#45701
Previously, the NgModule handler would resolve the `imports` field as one
unit, producing an array of `Reference`s. With this refactoring, if
`imports` is a literal array, each individual element will be resolved
independently. This will allow filtering in the future at the element level,
since there will be a separate `ts.Expression` for each individual element.

Standalone component scopes were first implemented in the
`ComponentDecoratorHandler` itself, due to an assumption that "standalone"
allowed for a localized analysis of the component's dependencies. However,
this is not strictly true. Other compiler machinery also needs to understand
component scopes, including standalone component scopes. A good example is
the template type-checking engine, which uses a `ComponentScopeReader` to
build full metadata objects (that is, metadata that considers the entire
inheritance chain) for type-checking purposes. Therefore, the
`ComponentScopeReader` should be able to give the scope for a standalone
component.
To achieve this, a new `StandaloneComponentScopeReader` is implemented, and
the return type of `ComponentScopeReader.getScopeForComponent` is expanded
to express standalone scopes. This cleanly integrates the "standalone"
concept into the existing machinery.

Previously, the compiler would represent template dependencies of a
component in its component definition through separate fields (`directives`,
`pipes`).
This commit refactors the compiler/runtime interface to use a single field
(`dependencies`). The runtime component definition object still has separate
`directiveDefs` and `pipeDefs`, which are calculated from the `dependencies`
when the definition is evaluated.
This change is also reflected in partially compiled declarations. To ensure
compatibility with partially compiled code already on NPM, the linker
will still honor the old form of declaration (with separate fields).

This commit improves the error messages generated by the compiler when NgModule
scope analysis finds structural issues within a compilation. In particular,
errors are now shown on a node within the metadata of the NgModule which
produced the error, as opposed to the node of the erroneous declaration/import/
export. For example, if an NgModule declares `declarations: [FooCmp]` and
`FooCmp` is not annotated as a directive, component, or pipe, the error is now
shown on the reference to `FooCmp` in the `declarations` array expression.
Previously, the error would have been shown on `FooCmp` itself, with a mention
in the error text of the NgModule name.
Additional error context in some cases has been moved to related information
attached to the diagnostic, which further improves the legibility of such
errors. Error text has also been adjusted to be more succinct, since more info
about the error is now delivered through context.

In early versions of Angular, it was sometimes necessary to provide a
`moduleId` to `@Component` metadata, and the common pattern for doing this
was to set `moduleId: module.id`. This relied on the bundler to fill in a
value for `module.id`.
However, due to the superficial similarity between `Component.moduleId` and
`NgModule.id`, many users ended up setting `id: module.id` in their
NgModules. This is an anti-pattern that has a few negative effects,
including preventing the NgModule from tree-shaking properly.
This commit changes the compiler to ignore `id: module.id` in NgModules, and
instead provide a warning which suggests removing the line entirely.
PR Close#45024
Angular contains an NgModule registry, which allows a user to declare
NgModules with string ids and retrieve them via those ids, using the
`getNgModuleById` API.
Previously, we attempted to structure this registration in a clever fashion
to allow for tree-shaking of registered NgModules (that is, those with ids).
This sort of worked due to the accidental alignment of behaviors from the
different tree-shakers involved. However, this trick relies on the
generation of `.ngfactory` files and how they're specifically processed in
various bundling scenarios. We intend to remove `.ngfactory` files, hence
we can no longer rely on them in this way.
The correct solution here is to recognize that `@NgModule({id})` is
inherently declaring a global side-effect, and such classes should not
really be eligible for tree-shaking in the first place. This commit removes
all the old registration machinery, and standardizes on generating a side-
effectful call to `registerNgModuleType` for NgModules that have ids.
There is some risk here that NgModules with unnecessary `id`s may not
tree-shake as a result of this change, whereas they would have in previous
circumstances. The fix here should be to remove the `id` if it's not needed.
Specifying an `id` is a request that the NgModule be retained regardless of
any other references, in case it is later looked up by string id.

The assertion comes from `ExtendedTemplateCheckerImpl`, which expects a well-formed configuration, yet the compiler would construct it even when errors were found. This commit skips constructing and running extended diagnostics if the configuration had errors, which should avoid triggering these assertion errors.
I'm unfortunately not able to actually test this change. The test passes even before the fix because the `ngc` binary and end-to-end tests [don't request diagnostics unless the configuration is considered valid](https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/ed21f5c75378e1ce717ee3d76d28c8c994209de1/packages/compiler-cli/src/perform_compile.ts#L292-L293).

Extended diagnostics provide additional analysis about Angular templates by emitting warnings for specific patterns known to be error prone or cause developer confusion. Currently, there are two such diagnostics which are enabled by default:
* `invalidBananaInBox` emits a warning if a user writes a two-way binding backwards like `([foo])="bar"`, when they actually wanted `[(foo)]="bar"`.
* `nullishCoalescingNotNullable` emits a warning if a binding attempts to perform nullish coalescing (`??`) on a type which does not include `null` or `undefined`, such as `{{ foo ?? 'bar' }}` where `foo` is defined as `string` instead of `string | null`.
These diagnostics are enabled as warnings by default, but this can be configured in the `tsconfig.json` like so:
```jsonc
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"extendedDiagnostics": {
// The categories to use for specific diagnostics.
"checks": {
// Maps check name to its category.
"invalidBananaInBox": "suppress"
},
// The category to use for any diagnostics not listed in `checks` above.
"defaultCategory": "error"
}
}
}
```
Allowed categories for a diagnostic are `warning` (default), `error`, or `suppress`. `warning` emits the diagnostic but allows the compilation to succeed, `error` *will* fail the compilation, while `suppress` will ignore the diagnostic altogether.
The initial release has two diagnostics, and we are hoping to expand this longer term to add more diagnostics and provide additional insight into Angular templates to detect and surface developer mistakes *before* hours of debugging are wasted.

This validates the `tsconfig.json` options for extended template diagnostics. It verifies:
* `strictTemplates` must be enabled if `extendedDiagnostics` have any explicit configuration.
* `extendedDiagnostics.defaultCategory` must be a valid `DiagnosticCategoryLabel`.
* `extendedDiagnostics.checks` keys must all be real diagnostics.
* `extendedDiagnostics.checks` values must all be valid `DiagnosticCategoryLabel`s.
These include new error codes, each of which prints out the exact property that was the issue and what the available options are to fix them.
It does disallow the config:
```json
{
"angularCompilerOptions": {
"strictTemplates": false,
"extendedDiagnostics": {
"defaultCategory": "suppress"
}
}
}
```
Such a configuration is technically valid and could be executed, but will be rejected by this verification logic. There isn't much reason to ever do this, since users could just drop `extendedDiagnostics` altogether and get the intended effect. This is unlikely to be a significant issue for users, so it is considered invalid for now to keep the implementation simple.

The `defaultCategory` option is used for any extended template diagnostics which do not have any specific category specified for them. It defaults to `warning`, since that is the most common behavior expected for users. This provides an easy way for users to promote all diagnostics to errors or suppress all diagnostics.
PR Close#44391

This updates `TemplateContext` to include a new `makeTemplateDiagnostic()` function which automatically uses the correct diagnostic category for that check. This makes sure that each diagnostic is emitted with the correct category. It also implicitly passes some known values like `component` and `code` to make the extended template diagnostics a little simpler. Diagnostics which are suppressed are never instantiated at all, which acts as a slight performance optimization since any emitted diagnostics would be ignored anyways.
Unfortunately, diagnostics still have access to `ctx.templateTypeChecker.makeTemplateDiagnostic()` to manually create diagnostics with a different category. Both banana in box and nullish coalescing checks include tests to make sure they respect a manually configured category. This convention should hopefully give a reasonable certainty that new diagnostics will use the correct reporting function, even if that is not strictly enforced.

This moves extended template check factory invocations into the checker itself, where it can provide a more consistent API contract. Factories are called with compiler options and may return a `TemplateCheck` or `undefined` if the current options do not support that check. This allows `nullishCoalescingNotNullable` to disable itself when `strictNullChecks` is disabled without throwing errors. This gives extended template diagnostics a stronger abstraction model to define their behavior with.

In certain scenarios, the compiler may have crashed with an
`Unable to write a reference` error which would be particularly hard
to diagnose. One of the primary reasons for this failure is when the
`rootDir` option is configured---typically the case for libraries---
and a source file is imported using a relative import from an external
entry-point. This would normally report TS6059 for the invalid relative
import, but the crash prevents this error from being surfaced.
This commit refactors the reference emit logic to result in an explicit
`Failure` state with a reason as to why the failure occurred. This state
is then used to report a `FatalDiagnosticException`, preventing a hard
crash.

Previously, a build when emitted one warning and no errors would fail with a non-zero exit code. This is not what users would expect, but had not been an issue before since the compiler did not actually emit any warnings. With upcoming extended template diagnostics and other warnings, this is now a case that needs to be supported. Warnings are printed to `stderr` as before, but `ngc` now exits with code `0` and the build is considered successful.
Implemented this by adding a new `expectedExitCode` parameter to `driveDiagnostics()` which asserts against the real exit code. Most importantly, it does not **require** the the build to pass since any exit code can be given, so it is up to the test to assert this as well as many messages printed to make sure they are acceptable. This is useful for testing warnings and ensuring the build still passes.

Removes the remaining usages of dynamic require statements in the
package output. Since we declare all shipped packages as strict ESM,
we cannot use dynamic require statements anymore. This commit switches
these usages to actual `import` statements.
Note: Tsickle continues to remain an optional dependency since bundling
does not work with its UMD package output. Also tsickle is rarely used by
consumers, if at all, so bundling does not really provide any significant
value. To continue keeping tsickle optional (since it's still needed by the
`annotateForClosureCompiler` option which is also respected in ngtsc), we
pass-through a tsickle instance as a parameter to `main`. This allows us to
keep the compile functions synchronous without having to refactor the majority
of the watch compilation code, and majority of tests for ngc, ngtsc.
Consumers (like the `ngc` bin entry-point) can then load tsickle based on their
module format. e.g. tsickle can be imported through `require` to keep everything
sync, but in ESM, the dynamic import can be used beforehand to pass `tsickle` to
the `main` function. We can revisit this in the future but for now this does the
trick without exceeding the scope of this commit..

As outlined in the previous commit which enabled the `esModuleInterop`
TypeScript compiler option, we need to update all namespace imports
for `typescript` to default imports. This is needed to allow for
TypeScript to be imported at runtime from an ES module.
Similar changes are needed for modules like `semver` where the types incorrectly
suggest named exports that will not exist at runtime when imported from ESM.
This commit refactors all imports to match with the lint rule we have
configured in the previous commit. See the previous commit for more
details on why certain imports have been changed.
A special case are the imports to `@babel/core` and `@babel/types`. For
these a special interop is needed as both default imports, or named
imports break the other module format. e.g default imports would work
well for ESM, but it breaks for CJS. For CJS, the named imports would
only work, but in ESM, only the default export exist. We work around
this for now until the devmode is using ESM as well (which would be
consistent with prodmode and gives us more valuable test results). More
details on the interop can be found in the `babel_core.ts` files (two
interops are needed for both localize/or the compiler-cli).

Now that `Route.loadChildren` no longer accepts a string, there is no
need for tooling to find all string-based `loadChildren` to setup lazy

enumerates all string-based `loadChildren` occurrences is no longer
needed and is therefore removed from the compiler.
The `listLazyRoutes` API remains on the `Program` interface to avoid
breaking external tools that may be using this method, but those tools

When specifying the `deps` array in the `@Injectable` decorator to
inject dependencies into the injectable's factory function, it should
be possible to use an array literal to configure how the dependency
should be resolved by the DI system.
For example, the following example is allowed:
```ts
@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root',
useFactory: a => new AppService(a),
deps: [[new Optional(), 'a']],
})
export class AppService {
constructor(a) {}
}
```
Here, the `'a'` string token should be injected as optional. However,
the AOT compiler incorrectly used the array literal itself as injection
token, resulting in a failure at runtime. Only if the token were to be
provided using `[new Optional(), new Inject('a')]` would it work
correctly.
This commit fixes the issue by using the last non-decorator in the
array literal as the token value, instead of the array literal itself.
Note that this is a loose interpretation of array literals: if a token
is omitted from the array literal then the array literal itself is used
as token, but any decorator such as `new Optional()` would still have
been applied. When there's multiple tokens in the list then only the
last one will be used as actual token, any prior tokens are silently
ignored. This behavior mirrors the JIT interpretation so is kept as is
for now, but may benefit from some stricter checking and better error
reporting in the future.

The static interpreter assumed that a foreign function expression would
have to be imported from the absolute module specifier that was used for
the foreign function itself. This assumption does not hold for the
`forwardRef` foreign function resolver, as that extracts the resolved
expression from the function's argument, which is not behind the
absolute module import of the `forwardRef` function.
The prior behavior has worked for the typical usage of `forwardRef`,
when it is contained within the same source file as where the static
evaluation started. In that case, the resulting reference would
incorrectly have an absolute module guess of `@angular/core`, but the
local identifier emit strategy was capable of emitting the reference
without generating an import using the absolute module guess.
In the scenario where the static interpreter would first have to follow
a reference to a different source that contained the `forwardRef` would
the compilation fail. In that case, there is no local identifier
available such that the absolute module emitter would try to locate the
imported symbol from `@angular/core`. which fails as the symbol is not
exported from there.
This commit fixes the issue by checking whether a foreign expression
occurs in the same source file as the call expression. If it does, then
the absolute module specifier that was used to resolve the call
expression is ignored.
