0.6 is problematic

[novice3030]

Our app won't start because of 0.6 update from 12-09-2014
What's going on?

[btford]

Can you provide me with some more information? There's not enough for me to go off with just that.

[westn]

I also woke up to an issue with 0.6 update.
First off, great with updates, but perhaps time to start with a changelog?

The issue for me seems to be that it changes the bootstrapping-process somehow. Since I have some URLs should be triggered/set directly after "angular.bootstrap", and these values are now set to null instead.

[mindmelting]

0.6 also broke my app, I think due to hint.js

My ng-show directives were no longer digesting scope property updates on the controller. Disabling Batarang fixed the issue....

[novice3030]

Same here disabling solves it
I also thing it has to do with hint.js

[cdarken]

Yeah, I can confirm this. Updated chrome to beta 40 and batarang is 0.6 and my app that was working yesterday didn't start, I disabled batarang and it's working now.

[westn]

Okay, I can confirm that it has to do with hint.js from my side.
Perhaps an option to disable it in batarang?

[michaelkrone]

It seems Batarang is looking for some controllers in hint.js, not im my source files.

Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function

It has broken all of our client sites (more than 200 sites) based on angularjs.

Check out www store hippo dot com.

Please review and revert asap.

[westn]

Okay, so this seems to actually be a known issue with angular-hint?

angular/angular-hint#21

It is even reported by btford. So perhaps the temporary solution is to revert back to 0.5, add functionality to disable ng-hint (since this contains the bug). Of course the issue should be handled, but from my point it looks more like a angular-hint issue.

Same issue here. I get a blank page on load with the plugin enabled. For me, everything seems to render when I refresh. Disabling the plugin also makes the page render on initial load. I don't know how useful it is to provide a reproducible example as it seems to be many people experiencing this.

[just-boris]

previous version 0.5.0 seems to be broken as well.
I have a some page with a many controls and new version dramatically slows down page loading. I can't find the exact place of problem, because I can't get access to developer tools because the page took whole resources.
I have to revert on last stable version 0.4.3 to came back to work. Here you can find my own .crx with this version. I hope it can help somebody

[macneib]

0.6 seems to work as advertised on Chrome 39/Linux, however is there a way to disable hint.js temporarily? The hinting seems to be dragging my livereload down to a crawl.

[AjmalSaid]

same here with angular1.2.16, angularjs-batarang 0.6.0, chrome 39.0.2171.95 m/windows. you can check it on http://group.tripcake.at/demo

Broken oh so broken!

Looking through the console I see that 'hint.js' is the problematic in my (1st ?) case:

hint.js lines 1901-1914:

return function ngEventHandler(scope, element, attrs) {
  for(var attr in angularAttrs) {
    var boundFuncs = getFunctionNames(attrs[attr]);
    boundFuncs.forEach(function(boundFn) {
      if(ngEventDirectives[attr] && !(boundFn in scope)) {
        messages.push({
          scope: scope,
          element:element,
          attrs: attrs,
          boundFunc: boundFn
        });
      }
    });
  }
  element.on(eventAttrName.substring(2).toLowerCase(), function(event) {
    scope.$apply(function() {
      fn(scope, {$event:event});
    });
  });
  formatResults(messages);
};

on line 1903:

var boundFuncs = getFunctionNames(attrs[attr]);

I have a form with required property set.
angularAttrs.required === required
but
attrs.required === true

and when calling getFunctionNames(attrs[attr]) we send true.
Inside getFunctionNames() lines 1995-1996:

// ...
module.exports = function getFunctionNames(str) {
   var results = str.replace(/\s+/g, '').split(/[\+\-\/\|\<\>\^=&!%~]/g).map(function(x) {
// ...

the str here is true, not a string and it throws.

Hope that helped.

I'm having issues as well, using Angular 1.3.2. Here's a stacktrace:

I hope it helps.

You can roll back to 0.4.3 of Batarang until the issues are resolved. Instructions here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/27404493/633107

Seeing a similar issue here.

[btford]

Just posing stack traces and error messages are somewhat helpful, but better would be to post reproductions.

[btford]

@mickeyvip – the issue you described was fixed in v0.7.1.

[btford]

I'm going to close this issue, since there are other similar reports that include more information, and I've since pushed many fixes. Can you all please:

1. update batarang to v0.7.1
2. check existing issues and comment on them if your problems seem similar

This will help me stay organized and roll out fixes as fast as possible. Thanks!

[mickeyvip]

@btford yes, updating to v0.7.1 fixed it.

Thank you

[michaelkrone]

@btford All good. Thank you.
