- add rule disallowSpaceBeforePostfixUnaryOperators (no space before postfix inc/dec ops)
- add rule disallowSpacesInsideArrayBrackets (array literals no longer padded with spaces)
- add rule requireCommaBeforeLineBreak (line can't start with comma token)
- add rule validateLineBreaks (require LF linebreaks)
Closes#9792
Objects created with `Object.create(null);` do not have a `valueOf` method unless
they supply one themselves. To accomodate these, Object.prototype.valueOf is
used when the type of the value is "object", and the `valueOf` property is not
a function (E.G. it's not in the object at all).
Closes#9568
With this change, expressions like "firstName + ' ' + lastName | uppercase"
will be analyzed and only the inputs for the expression will be watched
(in this case "firstName" and "lastName"). Only when at least one of the inputs
change, the expression will be evaluated.
This change speeds up simple expressions like `firstName | noop` by ~15%
and more complex expressions like `startDate | date` by ~2500%.
BREAKING CHANGE: all filters are assumed to be stateless functions
Previously it was a good practice to make all filters stateless, but now
it's a requirement in order for the model change-observation to pick up
all changes.
If an existing filter is statefull, it can be flagged as such but keep in
mind that this will result in a significant performance-penalty (or rather
lost opportunity to benefit from a major perf improvement) that will
affect the $digest duration.
To flag a filter as stateful do the following:
myApp.filter('myFilter', function() {
function myFilter(input) { ... };
myFilter.$stateful = true;
return myFilter;
});

Fixes regression where the `assign()` method was not added to chains of identifiers in CSP mode,
introduced originally in b3b476d.
Also fixes the $parse test suite to ensure that CSP code paths are taken when they're expected to be
taken.
Closes#9048
Fix the following exploit:
hasOwnProperty.constructor.prototype.valueOf = valueOf.call;
["a", "alert(1)"].sort(hasOwnProperty.constructor);
The exploit:
• 1. Array.sort takes a comparison function and passes it 2 parameters to compare.
2. It then calls .valueOf() if the result is not a primitive.
• The Function object conveniently accepts two string arguments so we can use this
to construct a function. However, this doesn't do much unless we can execute it.
• We set the valueOf function on Function.prototype to Function.prototype.call.
This causes the function that we constructed to be executed when sort calls
.valueOf() on the result of the comparison.
The fix is in two parts.
• Disallow passing unsafe objects to function calls as parameters.
• Do not traverse the Function object when setting a path.
BEAKING CHANGE:
Lazy-binding now happens on the scope watcher level.
What this means is that given `parseFn = $parse('::foo')`,
bind-once will only kick in when `parseFn` is being watched by a scope
(i.e. `scope.$watch(parseFn)`)
Bind-once will have no effect when directily invoking `parseFn` (i.e. `parseFn()`)
BREAKING CHANGE:
You can no longer invoke .bind, .call or .apply on a function in angular expressions.
This is to disallow changing the behaviour of existing functions
in an unforseen fashion.
__proto__ can be used to mess with global prototypes and it's
deprecated. Therefore, blacklisting it seems like a good idea.
BREAKING CHANGE:
The (deprecated) __proto__ propery does not work inside angular expressions
anymore.
It was possible to use `{}.__defineGetter__.call(null, 'alert', (0).valueOf.bind(0))` to set
`window.alert` to a false-ish value, thereby breaking the `isWindow` check, which might lead
to arbitrary code execution in browsers that let you obtain the window object using Array methods.
Prevent that by blacklisting the nasty __{define,lookup}{Getter,Setter}__ properties.
BREAKING CHANGE:
This prevents the use of __{define,lookup}{Getter,Setter}__ inside angular
expressions. If you really need them for some reason, please wrap/bind them to make them
less dangerous, then make them available through the scope object.
It was possible to run arbitrary JS from inside angular expressions using the
`Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor` method like this since commit 4ab16aaa:
''.sub.call.call(
({})["constructor"].getOwnPropertyDescriptor(''.sub.__proto__, "constructor").value,
null,
"alert(1)"
)()
Fix that by blocking access to `Object` because `Object` isn't accessible
without tricks anyway and it provides some other nasty functions.
BREAKING CHANGE:
This prevents the use of `Object` inside angular expressions.
If you need Object.keys, make it accessible in the scope.
Expressions that start with `::` will be binded once. The rule
that binding follows is that the binding will take the first
not-undefined value at the end of a $digest cycle.
Watchers from $watch, $watchCollection and $watchGroup will
automatically stop watching when the expression(s) are bind-once
and fulfill.
Watchers from text and attributes interpolations will
automatically stop watching when the expressions are fulfill.
All directives that use $parse for expressions will automatically
work with bind-once expressions. E.g.
<div ng-bind="::foo"></div>
<li ng-repeat="item in ::items">{{::item.name}};</li>

The feature has been deprecated in #4317
BREAKING CHANGE: promise unwrapping has been removed.
It has been deprecated since 1.2.0-rc.3.
It can no longer be turned on.
Two methods have been removed:
* $parseProvider.unwrapPromises
* $parseProvider.logPromiseWarnings
Previously, constant numbers with a unary minus sign were not treated as constants. This fix corrects
this behaviour, and may provide a small performance boost for certain applications, due to constant
watches being automatically unregistered after their first listener call.
Closes#6932
Per ECMAScript 5.1 specification trailing commas are allowed in object and
array literals. All modern browsers as well as IE>8 support this syntax.
This commit adds support for such syntax to Angular expressions.
There are always going to be false positives here, unfortunately. But
testing different properties will hopefully reduce the number of false
positives in a meaningful way, without harming performance too much.
Closes#4805Closes#5675
cspSafeGetterFn incorrectly returned undefined if any of its key parameters were undefined. This
wasn't caught by the $parse unit tests because of a timing problem where $ParseProvider was reading
the CSP flag before the tests manually set it, so the CSP property evaluation tests never ran. Add
test that verifies evaluation of nested properties of multiple lengths.
Closes#5591Closes#5592
Prior to this fix, $parse/$eval would return 'null' if a middle key in
an expression's value is null, when it should be expected to be undefined.
This patch tries to remedy this by returning undefined for middle values in
expressions, when fetching a child of that null value.
For example:
```js
// Given the following object:
$scope.a = {
b: null
};
// $scope.$eval('a.b.c') returns undefined, whereas previously it would return null
```
Closes#5480
Use a faster path when the number of path tokens is low (ie the common case).
This results in a better than 19x improvement in the time spent in $parse and
produces output that is about the same speed in chrome and substantially faster
in firefox.

Previously, when unwrapping promises was set to `true`,
an error would occur if a parsed expression had a
new line in it.
This was because when generating the `evaledFnGetter` code,
a new line in an parsed expression would create a new line
in a JS string in that code, which is illegal. That is:
```js
pw("A+
B")
```
Closes#4718
Hiding `_*` properties was a feature primarily for developers using Closure compiler and Google JS
style. We didn't realize how many people will be affected by this change.
We might introduce this feature in the future, probably under a config option, but it needs more
research and so I'm reverting the change for now.
This reverts commit 3d6a89e888.

BREAKING CHANGE:
This commit introduces the notion of "private" properties (properties
whose names begin and/or end with an underscore) on the scope chain.
These properties will not be available to Angular expressions (i.e. {{
}} interpolation in templates and strings passed to `$parse`) They are
freely available to JavaScript code (as before).
Motivation
----------
Angular expressions execute in a limited context. They do not have
direct access to the global scope, Window, Document or the Function
constructor. However, they have direct access to names/properties on
the scope chain. It has been a long standing best practice to keep
sensitive APIs outside of the scope chain (in a closure or your
controller.) That's easier said that done for two reasons: (1)
JavaScript does not have a notion of private properties so if you need
someone on the scope chain for JavaScript use, you also expose it to
Angular expressions, and (2) the new "controller as" syntax that's now
in increased usage exposes the entire controller on the scope chain
greatly increaing the exposed surface. Though Angular expressions are
written and controlled by the developer, they (1) typically deal with
user input and (2) don't get the kind of test coverage that JavaScript
code would. This commit provides a way, via a naming convention, to
allow publishing/restricting properties from controllers/scopes to
Angular expressions enabling one to only expose those properties that
are actually needed by the expressions.
This reverts commit 3a65822023.
The change cased regressions in third party components that require
promises from getter functions not to be unwrapped.
Since we have deprecated the promise unwrapping support in $parse it
doesn't make much sense to fix this issue and deal with regressions in
third party code.
Closes#4158
This commit disables promise unwrapping and adds
$parseProvider.unwrapPromises() getter/setter api that allows developers
to turn the feature back on if needed. Promise unwrapping support will
be removed from Angular in the future and this setting only allows for
enabling it during transitional period.
If the unwrapping is enabled, Angular will log a warning about each
expression that unwraps a promise (to reduce the noise, each expression
is logged only onces). To disable this logging use
`$parseProvider.logPromiseWarnings(false)`.
Previously promises found anywhere in the expression during expression
evaluation would evaluate to undefined while unresolved and to the
fulfillment value if fulfilled.
This is a feature that didn't prove to be wildly useful or popular,
primarily because of the dichotomy between data access in templates
(accessed as raw values) and controller code (accessed as promises).
In most code we ended up resolving promises manually in controllers
or automatically via routing and unifying the model access in this way.
Other downsides of automatic promise unwrapping:
- when building components it's often desirable to receive the
raw promises
- adds complexity and slows down expression evaluation
- makes expression code pre-generation unattractive due to the
amount of code that needs to be generated
- makes IDE auto-completion and tool support hard
- adds too much magic
BREAKING CHANGE: $parse and templates in general will no longer
automatically unwrap promises. This feature has been deprecated and
if absolutely needed, it can be reenabled during transitional period
via `$parseProvider.unwrapPromises(true)` api.
Closes#4158Closes#4270
Objects received from outside AngularJS may have had their `hasOwnProperty`
method overridden with something else. In cases where we can do this without
incurring a performance penalty we call directly on Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty
to ensure that we use the correct method.
Also, we have some internal hash objects, where the keys for the map are provided
from outside AngularJS. In such cases we either prevent `hasOwnProperty` from
being used as a key or provide some other way of preventing our objects from
having their `hasOwnProperty` overridden.
BREAKING CHANGE: Inputs with name equal to "hasOwnProperty" are not allowed inside
form or ngForm directives.
Before, inputs whose name was "hasOwnProperty" were quietly ignored and not added
to the scope. Now a badname exception is thrown.
Using "hasOwnProperty" for an input name would be very unusual and bad practice.
Either do not include such an input in a `form` or `ngForm` directive or change
the name of the input.
Closes#3331
This reduces memory consumption of parsed angular expressions and
speeds up parsing.
This JSPerf case demonstrates the performance boost:
http://jsperf.com/closure-vs-prototype-ngparser
Chrome: 1.5–2x boost
FF: slightly slower (I would love to know why)
IE: 4x boost
To be clear, this doesn't have any impact on runtime performance
of expressions as demostrated in this JSPerf:
