Update to the current stable version of Angular (1.5.6 => 1.6.9). The full changelog has all the details including breaking changes since 1.5.x.
The main backwards incompatible change which affects us is that by default component inputs are no longer available in controller constructors but only during/after the
$onInit
method is called [1]. There is apreAssignBindingsEnabled
backwards compatibility helper which preserves the previous behaviour. I have enabled this in both the sidebar application and tests for components which need it.See commit messages for details on other fixes required.
[1] Controllers in Angular are effectively classes and this change was introduced to make it possible to use ES6 classes as components, plus it has the benefit of encouraging the init code for a component to be put in one obvious place.
