The Ahead-of-Time (AOT) Compilerlink

预先（AOT）编译link

The Angular Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compiler converts your Angular HTML and TypeScript code into efficient JavaScript code during the build phase before the browser downloads and runs that code.

Angular 的“预先（AOT）编译器”会在构建期间把 Angular 应用的 HTML 和 TypeScript 代码编译成高效的 JavaScript 代码，之后浏览器就可以下载并快速运行这些代码。

This guide explains how to build with the AOT compiler using different compiler options and how to write Angular metadata that AOT can compile.

本章描述了如何使用 AOT 编译器，以及如何书写能被 AOT 编译的 Angular 元数据。

Angular compilationlink

Angular 中的编译link

An Angular application consists largely of components and their HTML templates. Before the browser can render the application, the components and templates must be converted to executable JavaScript by an Angular compiler.

Angular 应用由大量组件及其 HTML 模板组成。 在浏览器渲染应用之前，组件和模板必须由 Angular 编译器转换成可执行的 JavaScript 代码。

Angular offers two ways to compile your application:

Angular 提供了两种方式来编译你的应用：

1. Just-in-Time (JIT), which compiles your app in the browser at runtime

   即时（JIT）编译，它会在浏览器中运行时编译你的应用

2. Ahead-of-Time (AOT), which compiles your app at build time.

   预先（AOT）编译，它会在构建时编译你的应用。

JIT compilation is the default when you run the build-only or the build-and-serve-locally CLI commands:

当你运行 build或 serve这两个 CLI 命令时 JIT 编译是默认选项：

For AOT compilation, append the --aot flags to the build-only or the build-and-serve-locally CLI commands:

要进行 AOT 编译只要给这两个 CLI 命令添加 --aot 标志就行了：

Why compile with AOT?link

为什么需要 AOT 编译？link

Faster rendering

渲染得更快

With AOT, the browser downloads a pre-compiled version of the application. The browser loads executable code so it can render the application immediately, without waiting to compile the app first.

使用 AOT，浏览器下载预编译版本的应用程序。 浏览器直接加载运行代码，所以它可以立即渲染该应用，而不用等应用完成首次编译。

Fewer asynchronous requests

需要的异步请求更少

The compiler inlines external HTML templates and CSS style sheets within the application JavaScript, eliminating separate ajax requests for those source files.

编译器把外部 HTML 模板和 CSS 样式表内联到了该应用的 JavaScript 中。 消除了用来下载那些源文件的 Ajax 请求。

Smaller Angular framework download size

需要下载的 Angular 框架体积更小

There's no need to download the Angular compiler if the app is already compiled. The compiler is roughly half of Angular itself, so omitting it dramatically reduces the application payload.

如果应用已经编译过了，自然不需要再下载 Angular 编译器了。 该编译器差不多占了 Angular 自身体积的一半儿，所以，省略它可以显著减小应用的体积。

Detect template errors earlier

提早检测模板错误

The AOT compiler detects and reports template binding errors during the build step before users can see them.

AOT 编译器在构建过程中检测和报告模板绑定错误，避免用户遇到这些错误。

Better security

更安全

AOT compiles HTML templates and components into JavaScript files long before they are served to the client. With no templates to read and no risky client-side HTML or JavaScript evaluation, there are fewer opportunities for injection attacks.

AOT 编译远在 HTML 模版和组件被服务到客户端之前，将它们编译到 JavaScript 文件。 没有模版可以阅读，没有高风险客户端 HTML 或 JavaScript 可利用，所以注入攻击的机会较少。

Angular Compiler Optionslink

Angular 编译器选项link

You can control your app compilation by providing template compiler options in the tsconfig.json file along with the options supplied to the TypeScript compiler. The template compiler options are specified as members of "angularCompilerOptions" object as shown below:

你可以通过在 tsconfig.json 文件中随 TypeScript 编译选项一起提供模板编译选项来控制应用的编译方式。 这些模板编译选项都是作为 "angularCompilerOptions" 对象的成员指定的，代码如下：

enableResourceInlininglink

This options tell the compiler to replace the templateUrl and styleUrls property in all @Component decorators with inlined contents in template and styles properties. When enabled, the .js output of ngc will have no lazy-loaded templateUrl or styleUrls.

这个选项告诉编译器把所有 @Component 装饰器中的 templateUrl 和 styleUrls 属性内联成 template 和 styles 属性。 当启用时，ngc 的 .js 输出中将不会有惰性加载的 templateUrl 和 styleUrls。

skipMetadataEmitlink

This option tells the compiler not to produce .metadata.json files. The option is false by default.

这个选项告诉编译器不要生成 .metadata.json 文件，它默认是 false。

.metadata.json files contain information needed by the template compiler from a .ts file that is not included in the .d.ts file produced by the TypeScript compiler. This information contains, for example, the content of annotations (such as a component's template) which TypeScript emits to the .js file but not to the .d.ts file.

.metadata.json 文件中包含模板编译器所需的信息，这些信息来自于 .ts 文件中，但是没有包含在由 TypeScript 编译器生成的 .d.ts 文件中。 比如，这个信息包括 TypeScript 发出的注解内容（如组件的模板），TypeScript 把它生成到了 .js 文件中，但是没有生成到 .d.ts 文件中。

This option should be set to true if using TypeScript's --outFile option, as the metadata files are not valid for this style of TypeScript output. It is not recommeded to use --outFile with Angular. Use a bundler, such as webpack, instead.

如果使用了 TypeScript 的 --outFile 选项，那就要同时设置这个选项。因为在 TypeScript 的这种输出方式下，metadata 文件是无效的。 Angular 中不建议使用 --outFile，请改用 webpack 之类的打包器代替。

This option can also be set to true when using factory summaries as the factory summaries include a copy of the information that is in the .metadata.json file.

当使用工厂汇总器（factory summary）时，这个选项也要设置为 true，因为工厂汇总器在自己的 .metadata.json 中也包含了这些信息的一个副本。

strictMetadataEmitlink

This option tells the template compiler to report an error to the .metadata.json file if "skipMetadataEmit" is false . This option is false by default. This should only be used when "skipMetadataEmit" is false and "skipTemplateCodegen" is true.

这个选项告诉模板编译器如果 "skipMetadataEmit" 为 false，那就把错误信息汇报到 .metadata.json 中。 只有当 "skipMetadataEmit" 为 false 且 "skipTemplateCodegen" 为 true 时才应该使用这个选项。

It is intended to validate the .metadata.json files emitted for bundling with an npm package. The validation is overly strict and can emit errors for metadata that would never produce an error when used by the template compiler. You can choose to suppress the error emitted by this option for an exported symbol by including @dynamic in the comment documenting the symbol.

它的设计意图是要验证为打包 npm 而生成的 .metadata.json 文件。 这种验证过于严格，在使用模板编译器时甚至可能会对那些铁定不会出错的元数据文件报告一些错误。 你可以用 @dynamic 在注释中指定一些要导出的符号，来禁止对它们报告错误。

It is valid for .metadata.json files to contain errors. The template compiler reports these errors if the metadata is used to determine the contents of an annotation. The metadata collector cannot predict the symbols that are designed to use in an annotation, so it will preemptively include error nodes in the metadata for the exported symbols. The template compiler can then use the error nodes to report an error if these symbols are used. If the client of a library intends to use a symbol in an annotation, the template compiler will not normally report this until the client uses the symbol. This option allows detecting these errors during the build phase of the library and is used, for example, in producing Angular libraries themselves.

对于 .metadata.json 文件来说，包含错误是正常的。如果这些元数据被用来确定注解的内容，模板编译器就会报告这些错误。 元数据收集器无法判断这些符号的设计目的是用在注解中，所以它将会自作主张，在元数据中为这些导出的符号添加错误节点。 如果这些符号被用到了，模板编译器就会根据这些错误节点报告错误。 如果某个库的使用者只是在注解中（而不是普通代码中）使用这些符号，模板编译器通常不会报错。 这个选项允许在该库（比如 Angular 自身这些库）的构建和使用过程中检测这类错误。

skipTemplateCodegenlink

This option tells the compiler to suppress emitting .ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js files. When set, this turns off most of the template compiler and disables reporting template diagnostics. This option can be used to instruct the template compiler to produce .metadata.json files for distribution with an npm package while avoiding the production of .ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js files that cannot be distributed to npm.

这个选项告诉编译器忽略从 .ngfactory.js 和 .ngstyle.js 文件中发出的错误。 如果为 true，它就会关闭大多数的模板编译器，并禁止汇报模板诊断信息。 这个选项用于指示模板编译器为通过 npm 包分发而生成 .metadata.json 文件，同时避免生成无法分发到 npm 的 .ngfactory.js 和 .ngstyle.js 文件。

strictInjectionParameterslink

When set to true, this options tells the compiler to report an error for a parameter supplied whose injection type cannot be determined. When this value option is not provided or is false, constructor parameters of classes marked with @Injectable whose type cannot be resolved will produce a warning.

当设置为 true 时，该选项会告诉编译器为那些无法确定其类型的注入参数报告错误。 当该值没有提供或未 false 时，那些带有 @Injectable 的类，如果其构造参数的类型无法解析，就会生成一个警告。

Note: It is recommended to change this option explicitly to true as this option will default to true in the future.

注意：建议把该选项显式改为 true，因为将来这个选项的默认值会是 true。

flatModuleOutFilelink

When set to true, this option tells the template compiler to generate a flat module index of the given file name and the corresponding flat module metadata. Use this option when creating flat modules that are packaged similarly to @angular/core and @angular/common. When this option is used, the package.json for the library should refer to the generated flat module index instead of the library index file. With this option only one .metadata.json file is produced that contains all the metadata necessary for symbols exported from the library index. In the generated .ngfactory.js files, the flat module index is used to import symbols that includes both the public API from the library index as well as shrowded internal symbols.

当为 true 时，该选项告诉模板编译器生成一个指定名字的扁平模块索引和相应的扁平模块元数据。 当要创建像 @angular/core 和 @angular/common 这样的扁平模块包时，请使用本选项。 当使用本选项时，库的 package.json 文件就会引用生成的扁平模块索引，而不是库的索引文件。 当使用本选项时，只会生成一个 .metadata.json 文件，其中包含从库索引中导出的符号所需的全部元数据。 在生成的 .ngfactory.js 文件中，扁平模块索会用来导入包括库的公共 API 和隐藏的内部符号在内的全部符号。

By default the .ts file supplied in the files field is assumed to be library index. If more than one .ts file is specified, libraryIndex is used to select the file to use. If more than one .ts file is supplied without a libraryIndex, an error is produced. A flat module index .d.ts and .js will be created with the given flatModuleOutFile name in the same location as the library index .d.ts file. For example, if a library uses public_api.ts file as the library index of the module, the tsconfig.json files field would be ["public_api.ts"]. The flatModuleOutFile options could then be set to, for example "index.js", which produces index.d.ts and index.metadata.json files. The library's package.json's module field would be "index.js" and the typings field would be "index.d.ts".

默认情况下，files 字段中提供的 .ts 文件会被当做库索引。 如果指定了多个 .ts 文件，就要用 libraryIndex 来选择要作为库索引的文件。 扁平模块索引会用 flatModuleOutFile 中给出的名字创建 .d.ts 和 .js 文件，并放在和库索引的 .d.ts 文件相同的位置。 比如，如果某个库使用 public_api.ts 文件作为该模块的库索引，那么 tsconfig.json 的 files 字段就应该是 ["public_api.ts"]。 然后可以把 flatModuleOutFile 选项设置为 "index.js"，它就会生成 index.d.ts 和 index.metadata.json 文件。 该库的 package.json 文件的 module 字段将会是 "index.js"，而 typings 字段会是 "index.d.ts"。

flatModuleIdlink

This option specifies the preferred module id to use for importing a flat module. References generated by the template compiler will use this module name when importing symbols from the flat module. This is only meaningful when flatModuleOutFile is also supplied. Otherwise the compiler ignores this option.

该选项指定建议的模块 ID，这个 ID 用于导入扁平模块。 从扁平模块中导入符号时，由模板编译器生成的引用将使用这个模块名称。 它仅在同时提供了 flatModuleOutFile 选项时才有意义，否则，编译器将忽略此选项。

generateCodeForLibrarieslink

This option tells the template compiler to generate factory files (.ngfactory.js and .ngstyle.js) for .d.ts files with a corresponding .metadata.json file. This option defaults to true. When this option is false, factory files are generated only for .ts files.

这个选项告诉模板编译器也为与 .metadata.json 文件对应的 .d.ts 文件生成工厂文件（.ngfactory.js 和 .ngstyle.js）。 这个选项默认为 true。当该选项为 false 时，只会为 .ts 文件生成工厂文件。

This option should be set to false when using factory summaries.

当使用工厂汇总器时，这个选项应该设置为 false。

fullTemplateTypeChecklink

This option tells the compiler to enable the binding expression validation phase of the template compiler which uses TypeScript to validate binding expressions.

该选项告诉编译器要为模板编译器启用绑定表达式验证阶段，它会使用 TypeScript 来验证绑定表达式。

This option is false by default.

该选项默认是 false。

Note: It is recommended to set this to true as this option will default to true in the future.

注意：建议把它设置为 true，因为将来它会默认为 true。

annotateForClosureCompilerlink

This option tells the compiler to use Tsickle to annotate the emitted JavaScript with JsDoc comments needed by the Closure Compiler. This option defaults to false.

该选项告诉编译器使用 Tsickle 来为生成的 JavaScript 添加供 Closure Compiler 使用的 JsDoc 注解。 该选项默认为 false。

annotationsAslink

Use this option to modify how the Angular specific annotations are emitted to improve tree-shaking. Non-Angular annotations and decorators are unaffected. Default is static fields.

使用这个选项来修改生成 Angular 特有注解的方式，以提升摇树优化（tree-shaking）的效果。它对 Angular 自身之外的注解和装饰器无效。 默认值是 static fields。

tracelink

This tells the compiler to print extra information while compiling templates.

它告诉编译器在编译模板时打印额外的信息。

disableExpressionLoweringlink

The Angular template compiler transforms code that is used, or could be used, in an annotation to allow it to be imported from template factory modules. See metadata rewriting for more information.

Angular 的模板编译器会转换注解中使用或可能使用的代码，以便能从模板的工厂模块中导入它。 参见元数据重写以了解更多信息。

Setting this option to false disables this rewriting, requiring the rewriting to be done manually.

把该选项设置为 false 将会禁止这种重写，如果需要重写就去得人工完成了。

preserveWhitespaceslink

This option tells the compiler whether to remove blank text nodes from compiled templates. As of v6, this option is false by default, which results in smaller emitted template factory modules.

该选项会告诉编译器是否要从编译后的模板中移除空白的文本节点。 对于 Angular v6，该选项默认为 false，它会移除空白节点，以生成更小的模板工厂模块。

allowEmptyCodegenFileslink

Tells the compiler to generate all the possible generated files even if they are empty. This option is false by default. This is an option used by bazel build rules and is needed to simplify how bazel rules track file dependencies. It is not recommended to use this option outside of the bazel rules.

告诉编译器生成所有可能生成的文件 —— 即使是空文件。 该选项默认为 false。 这是供 bazel 构建规则使用的选项，它用于简化 bazel 规则跟踪文件依赖的方式。 除了 bazel 规则之外不建议使用该选项。

enableIvylink

Tells the compiler to generate definitions using the Render3 style code generation. This option defaults to false.

告诉编译器使用 Render3 风格的代码生成器来来生成各种定义。 该选项默认为 false。

Not all features are supported with this option enabled. It is only supported for experimentation and testing of Render3 style code generation.

当开启该选项时，有些特性不受支持。它仅仅用来为试验和测试 Render3 风格的代码生成提供支持。

Note: Is it not recommended to use this option as it is not yet feature complete with the Render2 code generation.

注意：不建议使用该选项，因为它在使用 Render2 的代码生成器时还缺少一些特性。

Angular Metadata and AOTlink

Angular 元数据与 AOTlink

The Angular AOT compiler extracts and interprets metadata about the parts of the application that Angular is supposed to manage.

Angular 的 AOT 编译器会提取并解释应用中由 Angular 管理的各个部件的元数据。

Angular metadata tells Angular how to construct instances of your application classes and interact with them at runtime.

Angular 的元数据会告诉 Angular 如何创建应用中类的实例以及如何在运行期间与它们交互。

You specify the metadata with decorators such as @Component() and @Input(). You also specify metadata implicitly in the constructor declarations of these decorated classes.

你通过装饰器来指定元数据，比如 @Component() 和 @Input()。 你还可以在这些带装饰器的类的构造函数中隐式指定元数据。

In the following example, the @Component() metadata object and the class constructor tell Angular how to create and display an instance of TypicalComponent.

在下列范例中，@Component() 元数据对象和类的构造函数会告诉 Angular 如何创建和显示 TypicalComponent 的实例。

The Angular compiler extracts the metadata once and generates a factory for TypicalComponent. When it needs to create a TypicalComponent instance, Angular calls the factory, which produces a new visual element, bound to a new instance of the component class with its injected dependency.

Angular 编译器只提取一次元数据，并且为 TypicalComponent 生成一个工厂。 当它需要创建 TypicalComponent 的实例时，Angular 调用这个工厂，工厂会生成一个新的可视元素，并且把它（及其依赖）绑定到组件类的一个新实例上。

Metadata restrictionslink

元数据的限制link

You write metadata in a subset of TypeScript that must conform to the following general constraints:

你只能使用 TypeScript 的一个子集书写元数据，它必须满足下列限制：

1. Limit expression syntax to the supported subset of JavaScript.

   表达式语法只支持 JavaScript 的一个有限的子集。

2. Only reference exported symbols after code folding.

   只能引用代码收缩后导出的符号。

3. Only call functions supported by the compiler.

   只能调用编译器支持的那些函数。

4. Decorated and data-bound class members must be public.

   被装饰和用于数据绑定的类成员必须是公共（public）的。

The next sections elaborate on these points.

下一节将会详细解释这些问题。

How AOT workslink

AOT 工作原理link

It helps to think of the AOT compiler as having two phases: a code analysis phase in which it simply records a representation of the source; and a code generation phase in which the compiler's StaticReflector handles the interpretation as well as places restrictions on what it interprets.

可以把 AOT 编译器看做两个阶段：在代码分析阶段，它只记录源代码，而在代码生成阶段，编译器的 StaticReflector 会解释这些结果，并为这些结果加上限制。

Phase 1: analysislink

阶段 1：分析link

The TypeScript compiler does some of the analytic work of the first phase. It emits the .d.ts type definition files with type information that the AOT compiler needs to generate application code.

TypeScript 编译器会做一些初步的分析工作，它会生成类型定义文件.d.ts，其中带有类型信息，Angular 编译器需要借助它们来生成代码。

At the same time, the AOT collector analyzes the metadata recorded in the Angular decorators and outputs metadata information in .metadata.jsonfiles, one per .d.ts file.

同时，AOT 收集器（collector） 会记录 Angular 装饰器中的元数据，并把它们输出到.metadata.json文件中，和每个 .d.ts 文件相对应。

You can think of .metadata.json as a diagram of the overall structure of a decorator's metadata, represented as an abstract syntax tree (AST).

你可以把 .metadata.json 文件看做一个包括全部装饰器的元数据的全景图，就像抽象语法树 (AST) 一样。

Expression syntaxlink

表达式语法link

The collector only understands a subset of JavaScript. Define metadata objects with the following limited syntax:

这个收集器只能理解 JavaScript 的一个子集。 请使用下列受限语法定义元数据对象：

If an expression uses unsupported syntax, the collector writes an error node to the .metadata.json file. The compiler later reports the error if it needs that piece of metadata to generate the application code.

如果表达式使用了不支持的语法，收集器就会往 .metadata.json 文件中写入一个错误节点。稍后，如果编译器用到元数据中的这部分内容来生成应用代码，它就会报告这个错误。

No arrow functionslink

不要有箭头函数link

The AOT compiler does not support function expressions and arrow functions, also called lambda functions.

AOT 编译器不支持 函数表达式 和 箭头函数（也叫 Lambda 函数）。

Consider the following component decorator:

考虑如下组件装饰器：

The AOT collector does not support the arrow function, () => new Server(), in a metadata expression. It generates an error node in place of the function.

AOT 的收集器不支持在元数据表达式中出现箭头函数 () => new Server()。 它会在该函数中就地生成一个错误节点。

When the compiler later interprets this node, it reports an error that invites you to turn the arrow function into an exported function.

稍后，当编译器解释该节点时，它就会报告一个错误，让你把这个箭头函数转换成一个导出的函数。

You can fix the error by converting to this:

你可以把它改写成这样来修复这个错误：

Beginning in version 5, the compiler automatically performs this rewriting while emitting the .js file.

从 Angular v5 开始，编译器会在生成 .js 文件时自动执行这种改写。

Limited function callslink

受限函数调用link

The collector can represent a function call or object creation with new as long as the syntax is valid. The collector only cares about proper syntax.

只要语法有效，收集器就可以支持函数调用或使用 new 来创建对象。收集器只在乎语法是否正确。

But beware. The compiler may later refuse to generate a call to a particular function or creation of a particular object. The compiler only supports calls to a small set of functions and will use new for only a few designated classes. These functions and classes are in a table of below.

但要注意。编译器稍后可能拒绝调用特定的函数或拒绝创建特定的对象。 编译器值仅支持调用一小部分函数，也只能 new 一小部分类。这些函数和类列在了后面的表格中。

Foldinglink

折叠（fold）link

The compiler can only resolve references to exported symbols. Fortunately, the collector enables limited use of non-exported symbols through folding.

编译器只能解析对导出的符号的引用。 幸运的是，收集器支持通过折叠来有限的使用那些未导出的符号。

The collector may be able to evaluate an expression during collection and record the result in the .metadata.json instead of the original expression.

收集器可以在收集期间执行表达式，并用其结果代替原始表达式，记录到 .metadata.json 中。

For example, the collector can evaluate the expression 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 and replace it with the result, 10.

比如，收集器可以执行表达式 1 + 2 + 3 + 4，并使用它的结果 10 替换它。

This process is called folding. An expression that can be reduced in this manner is foldable.

这个过程被称为折叠。能用这种方式进行简化的表达式就是可折叠的。

The collector can evaluate references to module-local const declarations and initialized var and let declarations, effectively removing them from the .metadata.json file.

收集器可以计算对模块局部变量的 const 声明和初始化过的 var 和 let 声明，并从 .metadata.json 文件中移除它们。

Consider the following component definition:

考虑下列组件定义：

The compiler could not refer to the template constant because it isn't exported.

编译器不能引用 template 常量，因为它是未导出的。

But the collector can fold the template constant into the metadata definition by inlining its contents. The effect is the same as if you had written:

但是折叠器可以通过内联 template 常量的方式把它折叠进元数据定义中。 最终的结果和你以前的写法是一样的：

There is no longer a reference to template and, therefore, nothing to trouble the compiler when it later interprets the collector's output in .metadata.json.

这里没有对 template 的引用，因此，当编译器稍后对位于 .metadata.json 中的收集器输出进行解释时，不会再出问题。

You can take this example a step further by including the template constant in another expression:

你还可以通过把 template 常量包含在其它表达式中来让这个例子深入一点：

The collector reduces this expression to its equivalent folded string:

收集器把该表达式缩减成其等价的已折叠字符串：

'<div>{{hero.name}}</div><div>{{hero.title}}</div>'.

Foldable syntaxlink

可折叠的语法link

The following table describes which expressions the collector can and cannot fold:

下表中描述了哪些表达式是否能被收集器折叠：

If an expression is not foldable, the collector writes it to .metadata.json as an AST for the compiler to resolve.

如果表达式是不可折叠的，那么收集器就会把它作为一个 AST（抽象语法树） 写入 .metadata.json 中，留给编译器去解析。

Phase 2: code generationlink

阶段 2：代码生成link

The collector makes no attempt to understand the metadata that it collects and outputs to .metadata.json. It represents the metadata as best it can and records errors when it detects a metadata syntax violation.

收集器不会试图理解它收集并输出到 .metadata.json 中的元数据，它所能做的只是尽可能准确的表述这些元数据，并在检测到元数据中的语法违规时记录这些错误。

It's the compiler's job to interpret the .metadata.json in the code generation phase.

解释这些 .metadata.json 是编译器在代码生成阶段要承担的工作。

The compiler understands all syntax forms that the collector supports, but it may reject syntactically correct metadata if the semantics violate compiler rules.

编译器理解收集器支持的所有语法形式，但是它也可能拒绝那些虽然语法正确但语义违反了编译器规则的元数据。

The compiler can only reference exported symbols.

编译器只能引用已导出的符号。

Decorated component class members must be public. You cannot make an @Input() property private or internal.

带有装饰器的类成员必须是公开的。你不可能制作一个私有或内部使用的 @Input() 属性。

Data bound properties must also be public.

数据绑定的属性同样必须是公开的。

Most importantly, the compiler only generates code to create instances of certain classes, support certain decorators, and call certain functions from the following lists.

最重要的是，编译器生成代码时，只支持为下面列出的某些类创建实例、只支持某些装饰器、只会调用某些函数。

New instanceslink

新建实例link

The compiler only allows metadata that create instances of the class InjectionToken from @angular/core.

编译器只允许创建来自 @angular/core 的 InjectionToken 类创建实例。

Annotations/Decoratorslink

注解 / 装饰器link

The compiler only supports metadata for these Angular decorators.

编译器只支持下列 Angular 装饰器的元数据。

Macro-functions and macro-static methodslink

宏函数或静态宏函数link

The compiler also supports macros in the form of functions or static methods that return an expression.

编译器也支持在返回表达式的函数或静态函数中使用宏。

For example, consider the following function:

考虑下面的函数：

You can call the wrapInArray in a metadata definition because it returns the value of an expression that conforms to the compiler's restrictive JavaScript subset.

你可以在元数据定义中调用 wrapInArray，因为它所返回的表达式的值满足编译器支持的 JavaScript 受限子集。

You might use wrapInArray() like this:

你还可以这样使用 wrapInArray()：

The compiler treats this usage as if you had written:

编译器会把这种用法处理成你以前的写法：

The collector is simplistic in its determination of what qualifies as a macro function; it can only contain a single return statement.

收集器决定哪些函数是宏函数是很简单的 —— 它只能包含一个 return 语句。

The Angular RouterModuleexports two macro static methods, forRoot and forChild, to help declare root and child routes. Review the source code for these methods to see how macros can simplify configuration of complex NgModules.

Angular 的 RouterModule导出了两个静态宏函数 forRoot 和 forChild，以帮助声明根路由和子路由。 查看这些方法的源码，以了解宏函数是如何简化复杂的 NgModule 配置的。

Metadata rewritinglink

元数据重写link

The compiler treats object literals containing the fields useClass, useValue, useFactory, and data specially. The compiler converts the expression initializing one of these fields into an exported variable, which replaces the expression. This process of rewriting these expressions removes all the restrictions on what can be in them because the compiler doesn't need to know the expression's value—it just needs to be able to generate a reference to the value.

编译器会对含有 useClass、useValue、useFactory 和 data 的对象字面量进行特殊处理。 编译器会把用这些字段之一初始化的表达式转换成一个导出为一个变量，并用它替换该表达式。 这个重写表达式的过程，会消除它们受到的所有限制，因为编译器并不需要知道该表达式的值，它只要能生成对该值的引用就行了。

You might write something like:

你可以这样写：

Without rewriting, this would be invalid because lambdas are not supported and TypicalServer is not exported.

如果不重写，这就是无效的，因为这里不支持 Lambda 表达式，而且 TypicalServer 也没有被导出。

To allow this, the compiler automatically rewrites this to something like:

为了允许这种写法，编译器自动把它重写成了这样：

This allows the compiler to generate a reference to ɵ0 in the factory without having to know what the value of ɵ0 contains.

这就让编译器能在工厂中生成一个对 ɵ0 的引用，而不用知道 ɵ0 中包含的值到底是什么。

The compiler does the rewriting during the emit of the .js file. This doesn't rewrite the .d.ts file, however, so TypeScript doesn't recognize it as being an export. Thus, it does not pollute the ES module's exported API.

编译器会在生成 .js 文件期间进行这种重写。它不会重写 .d.ts 文件，所以 TypeScript 也不会把这个变量当做一项导出，因此也就不会污染 ES 模块中导出的 API。

Metadata Errorslink

元数据错误link

The following are metadata errors you may encounter, with explanations and suggested corrections.

你可能遇到一些元数据错误，下面是对它们的解释和纠正建议。

Expression form not supported【不支持此表达式格式】
Reference to a local (non-exported) symbol【引用了局部（未导出的）符号】
Only initialized variables and constants【只允许初始化过的变量和常量】
Reference to a non-exported class【引用了未导出的类】
Reference to a non-exported function【引用了未导出的函数】
Function calls are not supported【不支持函数调用】
Destructured variable or constant not supported【不支持解构变量或常量】
Could not resolve type【不能解析此类型】
Name expected【期待是名字】
Unsupported enum member name【不支持的枚举成员名】
Tagged template expressions are not supported【不支持带标签函数的模板表达式】
Symbol reference expected【期待是符号引用】

Expression form not supportedlink

不支持这种表达式格式link

The compiler encountered an expression it didn't understand while evaluating Angular metadata.

编译器在对 Angular 元数据求值时遇到了一个它不能理解的表达式。

Language features outside of the compiler's restricted expression syntax can produce this error, as seen in the following example:

除编译器允许的表达式语法之外的语言特性可能导致这个错误，比如下面的例子：

You can use typeof and bracket notation in normal application code. You just can't use those features within expressions that define Angular metadata.

你可以在普通的应用代码中使用 typeof 和方括号标记法来指定属性名，但是这些特性不能在定义 Angular 元数据的表达式中使用。

Avoid this error by sticking to the compiler's restricted expression syntax when writing Angular metadata and be wary of new or unusual TypeScript features.

在写 Angular 的元数据时，严格遵循编译器的受限表达式语法可以避免这个错误，此外还要小心那些新的或罕见的 TypeScript 特性。

Reference to a local (non-exported) symbollink

引用了局部（未导出的）符号link

The compiler encountered a referenced to a locally defined symbol that either wasn't exported or wasn't initialized.

编译器遇到了局部定义的未导出或未初始化的符号。

Here's a provider example of the problem.

下面就是存在该问题的 provider 范例。

The compiler generates the component factory, which includes the useValue provider code, in a separate module. That factory module can't reach back to this source module to access the local (non-exported) foo variable.

编译器会在单独的模块中生成这个 userValue 提供商的代码。那个工厂模块不能访问这个源码模块，无法访问这个（未导出的）foo 变量。

You could fix the problem by initializing foo.

你可以通过初始化 foo 来修正这个错误。

The compiler will fold the expression into the provider as if you had written this.

编译器将会把这个表达式折叠进 providers 中，就像你以前的写法一样。

Alternatively, you can fix it by exporting foo with the expectation that foo will be assigned at runtime when you actually know its value.

另外，你也可以通过导出 foo 来解决它，这样 foo 将会在运行期间你真正知道它的值的时候被赋值。

Adding export often works for variables referenced in metadata such as providers and animations because the compiler can generate references to the exported variables in these expressions. It doesn't need the values of those variables.

添加 export 的方式通常用于需要在元数据中引用变量时，如 providers 和 animations，这样编译器就可以在这些表达式中生成对已导出变量的引用了。它不需要知道这些变量的值。

Adding export doesn't work when the compiler needs the actual value in order to generate code. For example, it doesn't work for the template property.

当编译器需要知道真正的值已生成代码时，添加 export 的方式就是无效的。比如这里的 template 属性。

The compiler needs the value of the template property right now to generate the component factory. The variable reference alone is insufficient. Prefixing the declaration with export merely produces a new error, "Only initialized variables and constants can be referenced".

编译器现在就需要 template 属性的值来生成组件工厂。 仅仅有对该变量的引用是不够的。 给这个声明加上 export 前缀只会生成一个新的错误 "Only initialized variables and constants can be referenced【只能引用初始化过的变量和常量】"。

Only initialized variables and constantslink

只允许使用初始化过的变量和常量link

The compiler found a reference to an exported variable or static field that wasn't initialized. It needs the value of that variable to generate code.

编译器发现某个到已导出的变量或静态字段的引用是没有初始化过的。而它需要根据那个变量的值来生成代码。

The following example tries to set the component's template property to the value of the exported someTemplate variable which is declared but unassigned.

下面的例子试图把组件的 template 属性设置为已导出的 someTemplate 变量的值，而这个值虽然声明过，却没有初始化过。

You'd also get this error if you imported someTemplate from some other module and neglected to initialize it there.

如果你从其它模块中导入了 someTemplate，但那个模块中忘了初始化它，就会看到这个错误。

The compiler cannot wait until runtime to get the template information. It must statically derive the value of the someTemplate variable from the source code so that it can generate the component factory, which includes instructions for building the element based on the template.

编译器不能等到运行时才得到该模板的信息。 它必须从源码中静态获得这个 someTemplate 变量的值，以便生成组件工厂，组件工厂中需要包含根据这个模板来生成元素的代码。

To correct this error, provide the initial value of the variable in an initializer clause on the same line.

要纠正这个错误，请在同一行的初始化子句中初始化这个变量的值。

Reference to a non-exported classlink

引用了未导出的类link

Metadata referenced a class that wasn't exported.

元数据引用了一个未导出的类。

For example, you may have defined a class and used it as an injection token in a providers array but neglected to export that class.

比如，你可能定义了一个类并在某个 providers 数组中把它用作了依赖注入令牌，但是忘了导出这个类。

Angular generates a class factory in a separate module and that factory can only access exported classes. To correct this error, export the referenced class.

Angular 会在一个单独的模块中生成类工厂，而那个工厂只能访问已导出的类。 要纠正这个问题，就要导出所引用的类。

Reference to a non-exported functionlink

引用了未导出的函数link

Metadata referenced a function that wasn't exported.

元数据中引用了未导出的函数。

For example, you may have set a providers useFactory property to a locally defined function that you neglected to export.

比如，你可能已经把某个服务提供商的 useFactory 属性设置成了一个局部定义但忘了导出的函数。

Angular generates a class factory in a separate module and that factory can only access exported functions. To correct this error, export the function.

Angular 会在一个单独的模块中生成类工厂，那个工厂只能访问已导出的函数。 要纠正这个错误，请导出该函数。

Function calls are not supportedlink

不支持函数调用link

The compiler does not currently support function expressions or lambda functions. For example, you cannot set a provider's useFactory to an anonymous function or arrow function like this.

编译器目前不支持函数表达式或 Lambda 表达式。 比如，你不能把某个服务提供商的 useFactory 设置成如下匿名函数或函数表达式。

You also get this error if you call a function or method in a provider's useValue.

如果你在某个提供商的 useValue 中调用函数或方法，也会导致这个错误。

To correct this error, export a function from the module and refer to the function in a useFactory provider instead.

要改正这个问题，就要从模块中导出这个函数，并改成在服务提供商的 useFactory 中引用该函数。

Destructured variable or constant not supportedlink

不支持解构变量或常量link

The compiler does not support references to variables assigned by destructuring.

编译器不支持引用通过解构赋值的方式得到的变量。

For example, you cannot write something like this:

比如，你不能这么写：

To correct this error, refer to non-destructured values.

要纠正这个错误，就要引用非解构方式的变量。

Could not resolve typelink

不能解析类型link

The compiler encountered a type and can't determine which module exports that type.

编译器遇到了某个类型，但是不知道它是由哪个模块导出的。

This can happen if you refer to an ambient type. For example, the Window type is an ambient type declared in the global .d.ts file.

这通常会发生在你引用环境类型时。 比如，Window 类型就是在全局 .d.ts 文件中声明的环境类型。

You'll get an error if you reference it in the component constructor, which the compiler must statically analyze.

如果你在组件的构造函数中引用它就会导致一个错误，因为编译器必须对构造函数进行静态分析。

TypeScript understands ambient types so you don't import them. The Angular compiler does not understand a type that you neglect to export or import.

TypeScript 能理解这些环境类型，所以你不用导入它们。 但 Angular 编译器不理解你没有导入或导出过的类型。

In this case, the compiler doesn't understand how to inject something with the Window token.

这种情况下，编译器就无法理解如何使用这个 Window 令牌来进行注入。

Do not refer to ambient types in metadata expressions.

不要在元数据表达式中引用环境类型。

If you must inject an instance of an ambient type, you can finesse the problem in four steps:

如果你必须注入某个环境类型的实例，可以用以下四步来巧妙解决这个问题：

1. Create an injection token for an instance of the ambient type.

   为环境类型的实例创建一个注入令牌。

2. Create a factory function that returns that instance.

   创建一个返回该实例的工厂函数。

3. Add a useFactory provider with that factory function.

   使用该工厂函数添加一个 useFactory 提供商。

4. Use @Inject to inject the instance.

   使用 @Inject 来注入这个实例。

Here's an illustrative example.

下面的例子说明了这一点。

The Window type in the constructor is no longer a problem for the compiler because it uses the @Inject(WINDOW) to generate the injection code.

对于编译器来说，构造函数中出现 Window 类型已不再是个问题，因为它现在使用 @Inject(WINDOW) 来生成注入代码。

Angular does something similar with the DOCUMENT token so you can inject the browser's document object (or an abstraction of it, depending upon the platform in which the application runs).

Angular 也用 DOCUMENT 令牌做了类似的事情，所以你也可以注入浏览器的 document 对象（或它的一个抽象层，取决于该应用运行在哪个平台）。

Name expectedlink

期待是名字link

The compiler expected a name in an expression it was evaluating. This can happen if you use a number as a property name as in the following example.

编译器期待它正在求值的表达式中是一个名字。

Change the name of the property to something non-numeric.

把该属性的名字改为非数字类型。

Unsupported enum member namelink

不支持的枚举成员名link

Angular couldn't determine the value of the enum member that you referenced in metadata.

Angular 不能确定你在元数据中引用的枚举成员的值。

The compiler can understand simple enum values but not complex values such as those derived from computed properties.

编译器可以理解简单的枚举值，但不能理解复杂的，比如从那些计算属性中派生出来的。

Avoid referring to enums with complicated initializers or computed properties.

避免引用那些使用了复杂初始化对象或计算属性的枚举。

Tagged template expressions are not supportedlink

不支持带标签函数的模板表达式link

The compiler encountered a JavaScript ES2015 tagged template expression such as,

当编译器遇到这样的带标签函数的模板表达式 时：

String.raw()is a tag function native to JavaScript ES2015.

String.raw()是一个 ES2015 原生的标签函数。

The AOT compiler does not support tagged template expressions; avoid them in metadata expressions.

AOT 编译器不支持带标签函数的模板表达式，避免在元数据表达式中使用它们。

Symbol reference expectedlink

期待是符号引用link

The compiler expected a reference to a symbol at the location specified in the error message.

编译器期待在错误信息指出的位置是一个符号引用。

This error can occur if you use an expression in the extends clause of a class.

当你在类的 extends 子句中使用表达式时就会出现这个错误。

Phase 3: binding expression validationlink

阶段 3：验证绑定表达式link

In the validation phase, the Angular template compiler uses the TypeScript compiler to validate the binding expressions in templates. Enable this phase explicitly by adding the compiler option "fullTemplateTypeCheck" in the "angularCompilerOptions" of the project's tsconfig.json (see Angular Compiler Options).

在验证阶段，Angular 的模板编译器会使用 TypeScript 编译器来验证模板中的绑定表达式。 通过在项目的 tsconfig.json（参见 Angular Compiler Options）的 "angularCompilerOptions" 中添加编译选项 "fullTemplateTypeCheck" 可以启用这个阶段。

Template validation produces error messages when a type error is detected in a template binding expression, similar to how type errors are reported by the TypeScript compiler against code in a .ts file.

当模板绑定表达式中检测到类型错误时，进行模板验证时就会生成错误。这和 TypeScript 编译器在处理 .ts 文件中的代码时报告错误很相似。

For example, consider the following component:

比如，考虑下列组件：

This will produce the following error:

这会生成如下错误：

The file name reported in the error message, my.component.ts.MyComponent.html, is a synthetic file generated by the template compiler that holds contents of the MyComponent class template. Compiler never writes this file to disk. The line and column numbers are relative to the template string in the @Component annotation of the class, MyComponent in this case. If a component uses templateUrl instead of template, the errors are reported in the HTML file referenced by the templateUrl instead of a synthetic file.

错误信息中汇报的文件名 my.component.ts.MyComponent.html 是一个由模板编译器生成出的虚拟文件， 用于保存 MyComponent 类的模板内容。 编译器永远不会把这个文件写入磁盘。这个例子中，这里的行号和列号都是相对于 MyComponent 的 @Component 注解中的模板字符串的。 如果组件使用 templateUrl 来代替 template，这些错误就会在 templateUrl 引用的 HTML 文件中汇报，而不是这个虚拟文件中。

The error location is the beginning of the text node that contains the interpolation expression with the error. If the error is in an attribute binding such as [value]="person.address.street", the error location is the location of the attribute that contains the error.

错误的位置是从包含出错的插值表达式的那个文本节点开始的。 如果错误是一个属性绑定，比如 [value]="person.address.street" ，错误的位置就是那个包含错误的属性的位置。

The validation uses the TypeScript type checker and the options supplied to the TypeScript compiler to control how detailed the type validation is. For example, if the strictTypeChecks is specified, the error my.component.ts.MyComponent.html(1,1): : Object is possibly 'undefined' is reported as well as the above error message.

这个验证过程使用 TypeScript 的类型检查器，这些选项也会提供给 TypeScript 编译器以控制类型验证的详细程度。 比如，如果指定了 strictTypeChecks，就会像上面的错误信息一样报告 my.component.ts.MyComponent.html(1,1): : Object is possibly 'undefined' 错误。

Type narrowinglink

类型窄化link

The expression used in an ngIf directive is used to narrow type unions in the Angular template compiler, the same way the if expression does in TypeScript. For example, to avoid Object is possibly 'undefined' error in the template above, modify it to only emit the interpolation if the value of person is initialized as shown below:

在 ngIf 指令中使用的表达式用来在 Angular 模板编译器中窄化联合类型，就像 TypeScript 中的 if 表达式一样。 比如，要在上述模板中消除 Object is possibly 'undefined' 错误，可以把它改成只在 person 的值初始化过的时候才生成这个插值表达式。

Using *ngIf allows the TypeScript compiler to infer that the person used in the binding expression will never be undefined.

使用 *ngIf 能让 TypeScript 编译器推断出这个绑定表达式中使用的 person 永远不会是 undefined。

Custom ngIf like directiveslink

类似于的 ngIf 的自定义指令link

Directives that behave like *ngIf can declare that they want the same treatment by including a static member marker that is a signal to the template compiler to treat them like *ngIf. This static member for *ngIf is:

那些行为与 *ngIf 类似的指令可以通过包含一个静态成员作为标记，来告诉模板编译器它们希望和 *ngIf 享受同等待遇。这个 *ngIf 的静态成员就是：

This declares that the input property ngIf of the NgIf directive should be treated as a guard to the use of its template, implying that the template will only be instantiated if the ngIf input property is true.

它声明了 NgIf 指令的 ngIf 属性应该在用到它的模板中看做一个守卫，以表明只有当 ngIf 这个输入属性为 true 时，才应该生成那个模板。

Non-null type assertion operatorlink

非空类型断言操作符link

Use the non-null type assertion operator to suppress the Object is possibly 'undefined' error when it is incovienent to use *ngIf or when some constraint in the component ensures that the expression is always non-null when the binding expression is interpolated.

使用 非空类型断言操作符可以在不方便使用 *ngIf 或 当组件中的某些约束可以确保这个绑定表达式在求值时永远不会为空时，防止出现 Object is possibly 'undefined' 错误。

In the following example, the person and address properties are always set together, implying that address is always non-null if person is non-null. There is no convenient way to describe this constraint to TypeScript and the template compiler, but the error is suppressed in the example by using address!.street.

在下列例子中，person 和 address 属性总是一起出现的，如果 person 非空，则 address 也一定非空。没有一种简便的写法可以向 TypeScript 和模板编译器描述这种约束。但是这个例子中使用 address!.street 避免了报错。

The non-null assertion operator should be used sparingly as refactoring of the component might break this constraint.

应该保守点使用非空断言操作符，因为将来对组件的重构可能会破坏这个约束。

In this example it is recommended to include the checking of address in the *ngIfas shown below:

这个例子中，更建议在 *ngIf 中包含对 address 的检查，代码如下：

Disabling type checking using $any()link

使用 $any() 禁用类型检查link

Disable checking of a binding expression by surrounding the expression in a call to the $any() cast pseudo-function. The compiler treats it as a cast to the any type just like in TypeScript when a <any> or as any cast is used.

可以通过把绑定表达式包含在类型转换伪函数 $any() 中来禁用类型检查。 编译器会像在 TypeScript 中使用 <any> 或 as any 进行类型转换一样对待它。

In the following example, the error Property addresss does not exist is suppressed by casting person to the any type.

下面的例子中，通过把 person 转换成 any 类型，忽略了 Property addresss does not exist 错误。
