Switch Activity / Fragment / FragmentManager implementation from native framework to support library APIs
BREAKING CHANGE:
NativeScript core framework now extends support library APIs versus native framework classes as per Google's latest guidelines:
- NativeScript activities now extend `android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity` (vs android.app.Activity)
- NativeScript fragments now extend `android.support.v4.app.Fragment` (vs android.app.Fragment)
- NativeScript now works internally with `android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager` (vs android.app.FragmentManager)
The implications of these changes should be mostly transparent to the developer except for the fact that the support library Fragment / FragmentManager work with Animation APIs versus Animator APIs.
For Android API Levels lower than 28 the new Fragment API uses a different fragment enter animation by default. You can customise the transition per navigation entry or globally via the [navigation transitions API](https://docs.nativescript.org/core-concepts/navigation#navigation-transitions)
Before:
Default fragment enter animation was fade animation
After:
Default fragment enter animation for API levels lower than 28 is now a fast "push fade" animation; default fragment enter animation for API levels equal to or greater than 28 remains fade animation
Before:
AndroidFragmentCallbacks interface exposed the following `onCreateAnimator(...)` method
``` ts
export interface AndroidFragmentCallbacks {
onCreateAnimator(fragment: any, transit: number, enter: boolean, nextAnim: number, superFunc: Function): any;
// ...
}
```
After:
AndroidFragmentCallbacks interface now exposes the following `onCreateAnimation(...)` method instead (and `onCreateAnimator(...)` is now removed)
``` ts
export interface AndroidFragmentCallbacks {
onCreateAnimation(fragment: any, transit: number, enter: boolean, nextAnim: number, superFunc: Function): any;
// ...
}
```
Before:
Transition class exposed the following abstract `createAndroidAnimator(...)` method
``` ts
export class Transition {
public createAndroidAnimator(transitionType: string): any;
// ...
}
```
After:
Transition class now exposes the following abstract `createAndroidAnimation(...)` method instead (and `createAndroidAnimation(...) is now removed)
``` ts
export class Transition {
public createAndroidAnimation(transitionType: string): any;
// ...
}
```
To migrate the code of your custom transitions follow the example below:
Before:
``` ts
import * as transition from "tns-core-modules/ui/transition";
export class CustomTransition extends transition.Transition {
constructor(duration: number, curve: any) {
super(duration, curve);
}
public createAndroidAnimator(transitionType: string): android.animation.Animator {
var scaleValues = Array.create("float", 2);
switch (transitionType) {
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.enter:
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.popEnter:
scaleValues[0] = 0;
scaleValues[1] = 1;
break;
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.exit:
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.popExit:
scaleValues[0] = 1;
scaleValues[1] = 0;
break;
}
var objectAnimators = Array.create(android.animation.Animator, 2);
objectAnimators[0] = android.animation.ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(null, "scaleX", scaleValues);
objectAnimators[1] = android.animation.ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(null, "scaleY", scaleValues);
var animatorSet = new android.animation.AnimatorSet();
animatorSet.playTogether(objectAnimators);
var duration = this.getDuration();
if (duration !== undefined) {
animatorSet.setDuration(duration);
}
animatorSet.setInterpolator(this.getCurve());
return animatorSet;
}
}
```
After:
``` ts
import * as transition from "tns-core-modules/ui/transition";
export class CustomTransition extends transition.Transition {
constructor(duration: number, curve: any) {
super(duration, curve);
}
public createAndroidAnimation(transitionType: string): android.view.animation.Animation {
const scaleValues = [];
switch (transitionType) {
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.enter:
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.popEnter:
scaleValues[0] = 0;
scaleValues[1] = 1;
break;
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.exit:
case transition.AndroidTransitionType.popExit:
scaleValues[0] = 1;
scaleValues[1] = 0;
break;
}
const animationSet = new android.view.animation.AnimationSet(false);
const duration = this.getDuration();
if (duration !== undefined) {
animationSet.setDuration(duration);
}
animationSet.setInterpolator(this.getCurve());
animationSet.addAnimation(
new android.view.animation.ScaleAnimation(
scaleValues[0],
scaleValues[1],
scaleValues[0],
scaleValues[1]
));
return animationSet;
}
}
```
Adding android typings for API levels from 17 to 27
BREAKING CHANGES:
There is no longer added `I` prefix in the names of the interfaces. For example `android.view.IMenuItem` is now `android.view.MenuItem`. This matches the original name of the interface in the android framework.
* feat: Pass NS app native controller to the native app instead of presenting it over the rootViewController
When NativeScript embedded app is created from the native one we check for whether the topmost UIViewController has NativeScriptEmbedder protocol (implemented in the iOS Runtime) method 'presentNativeScriptApp:'. If yes, we call it with the NS app viewcontroller as a parameter so the embedder has control over the NS app (where and how to present it etc.) For backwards compatibility we present the NS app on top of the topmost UIViewController as a fallback.
* style: Fix lint errors
* feat: Check for protocol instead of selector in embedding
I
* Check for rootController instead of topViewController to prevent crash if !rootController
* feat: Introduce NativeScriptEmbedder singleton
NativeScriptEmbedder is responsive for communication between the NS and the native iOS app. His delegate will implement methods which we can call from javascript such as "presentNativeScriptApp:".
- http -> http-request -> image-source
that can't be fixed easily and will be removed once we delete image-source module because it is obsolete anyway.
There is one more for android:
- frame -> fragment that could be removed if we use global object.

- Use path mappings in tsconfig.json to resolve module typings
- Only use ambient mobules for global API's
- Move single-file modules to a subdir with the same name so that
we can provide a hand-written typing next to it (via package.json)
- Delete all mentions of tns-core-modules.d.ts
- Delete reference d.ts assembly build steps. Not needed anymore.
- HACK! Use a <reference> for global typings in application.d.ts
to avoid publishing a separate @types/tns-core-modules package.
- Rename declarations.d.ts to tns-core-modules.d.ts to preserve
JS project mappings in references.d.ts (the only place we use those)

Roll back some changes involved in separating UIEvent for dom and ios
Test combined dts-es will now use lib, while internally we will not to avoid UIEvent conflict with dom stuff
