Outcome

Bring all apps up to Angular v8 (variously from v1.2, v1.5, v5, v6, and v7). Remove jHipster dependencies. Move to standardised file structure. Tidy up SCSS folder. Tidy up Protractor and Cucumber tests. NGRX Observable.

Background

There's a lot of tech debt across TIS. In FE this is the case too.

...

Things that need addressing are:

  1. Different versions of Angular in use

  2. Removal of dependency on jHipster scaffolding

  3. Aligning the filing structure to match best practice for Angular 5

  4. Tidy up the SCSS folder and code

  5. Where to apply global and local styles

  6. Tidying up of a plethora of tests and test approaches

  7. NGRX - observable

Description

Bringing all elements in TIS up to the same, current version of Angular

V5

V6

V7

V8

Pros and cons

(plus) Admins UI is v5 and the biggest element of TIS. Getting everything to v5 would mean we could then upgrade all of TIS to later versions of Angular more easily

(minus) v5 is already 2 full versions behind the current stable version of Angular (v7). Admins UI contains lots of non-Angular v5 code within it that will need to be converted to Angular v5 first

(plus) More modern version of Angular opens up new features and addresses issues from v5

(minus) Admins UI is now Angular v6, but bringing Reval up to v6 is a large task

(plus) More modern version of Angular opens up new features and addresses issues from v6

(minus) No element is using Angular v7 yet, so bringing all of TIS up to v7 is a huge task

(plus) More modern version of Angular opens up new features and addresses issues from v7

(minus) No element is using Angular v8 yet, so bringing all of TIS up to v8 is a huge task
