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.
