We don't need this tooling anymore because we are already validating
that there are no circular dependencies via the `ng-dev` tooling that
checks `.ts` files directly.
Also these tests never actually failed to my knowledge.

With the changes in #59573, `resource` can now define a `stream` rather than a `loader`.
In the same PR, `rxResource` was updated to leverage this new functionality to handle multiple responses from the underlying observable,
rather than just the first one as it was previously.
This commit renames the `loader` option of `rxResource` into `stream` to be better aligned with its new behavior.
The previous version is temporarily kept and marked as deprecated to help migrating the current usage.
Before
```
usersResource = rxResource({
request: () => ...,
loader: ({ request }) => ...
});
```
After
```
usersResource = rxResource({
request: () => ...,
stream: ({ request }) => ...
});
```

This commit adds support for creating `resource()`s with streaming response
data. A streaming resource is defined by a `stream` option instead of a
`loader`, with `stream` being a function returning
`Promise<Signal<{value: T}|{error: unknown}>>`. Once the streaming loader
resolves to a `Signal`, it can continue to update that signal over time, and
the values (or errors) will be delivered to via the resource's state.
`rxResource()` is updated to leverage this new functionality to handle
multiple responses from the underlying Observable.
PR Close#59573
When the reactive `request` of a resource() notifies, it transitions to the
Loading state, fires the loader, and eventually transitions to Resolved.
With the prior implementation, a change of the `request` will queue the
effect, but the state remains unchanged until the effect actually runs. For
a brief period, the resource is in a state where the request has changed,
but the state has yet to update.
This is problematic if we want to use resources in certain contexts where we
care about the state of the resource in a synchronous way. For example, an
async validator backed by a resource might be checked after an update:
```
value.set(123);
if (validator.value()) {
// value is still valid, even though the resource is dirty and will soon
// flip to loading state (returning value(): undefined) while revalidating
}
```
To address this timing concern, `linkedSignal()` is used within the
`resource()` to synchronously transition the state in response to the
request changing. This ensures any followup reads see a consistent view of
the resource regardless of whether the effect has run.
This also addresses a race condition where `.set()` behaves differently on a
`resource()` depending on whether or not the effect has run.

This commit adds an operator to help rxjs observables important for rendering
keep the application unstable (and prevent serialization) until there is
an event (observable emits, completes, or errors, or the subscription is
unsubscribed). This helps with SSR for zoneless and also helps for when
operations are intentionally executed outside the Angular Zone but are
still important for SSR (i.e. angularfire and the zoneWrap helper hacks).

A unit test has been added to check that `EventEmitter` properly completes upon component/directive destrouction when used with `outputToObservable`.
It explains why `destroyRef` has to be injected in `EventEmitter` in the first place.

The option introduced in 5df3e78c99 has been named `equals` whereas the existing option in `signal` is named `equal`.
This commit renames the new option to `equal` as well to keep the naming coherent across these APIs.

`toSignal` predates the decision to allow a more flexible equality check in
signals, and thus doesn't support a custom equality function. This commit
adds the ability to pass a custom value equality function. As a side effect,
it now adds the default equality check where it wasn't used before.

An `EventEmitter` is a construct owned by Angular that should be
used for outputs as of right now.
As we are introducing the new `OutputRef` interface for the new output
function APIs, we also think `EventEmitter` should implement
`OutputRef`— ensuring all "known" outputs follow the same contract.
This commit ensures `EventEmitter` implements an `OutputRef`
Note: An output ref captures the destroy ref from the current injection
context for clean-up purposes. This is also done for `EventEmitter` in a
backwards compatible way:
- not requiring an injection context. EventEmitter may be used
elsewhere.
- not cleaning up subscriptions/completing the emitter when the
directive/component is destroyed. This would be a change in behavior.
Note 2: The dependency on `DestroyRef` causes it to be retained in all
bundling examples because ironically `NgZone` uses `EventEmitter`- not
for outputs. The code is pretty minimal though, so that should be
acceptable.
`EventEmitter` will now always retain `NgZone. This increases the
payload size slightly around 800b for AIO. Note that the other increases
were coming from previous changes. This commit just pushed it over the
threshold.
PR Close#54650
This commit introduces an addition to `output()` and
`outputFromObservable`()` —called `outputToObservable()`.
The helper lives in the RxJS interop package and allows agnostic
programmatic subscriptions to `OutputRef`s by converting the output
to an observable with `.pipe` etc.
The function is ideally used in all places where you subscribe to an
output programmatically. Those outputs in the future, with the new APIs,
may not be actual RxJS constructs, but abstract `OutputRef`'s that
simply expose a `.subscribe` method. The helper allows you to
agnostically convert outputs to RxJS observables that you can safely
interact with.
The observables are also completed automatically, if possible, when the
owning directive/component is destroyed— Something that is not
guaranteed right now.
PR Close#54650
Introduces a second API in addition to the new `output()` function.
The new function `outputFromObservable()` can be used to declare outputs
using the new `OutputRef` API and `output()` API, while using a custom
RxJS observable as data source.
This is something that is currently possible in Angular and we would
like to keep possible- even though we never intended to support custom
observables aside from RxJS-based `EventEmitter`.
The interop bridges the gap and allows you to continue using
`Subject`, `ReplaySubject`, `BehaivorSubjct,` - or cold custom
observables for outputs. You can still trigger logic only when
the output is subscribed- unlike with imperative `emit`s of
`EventEmitter` or the new `OutputEmitterRef`.
A notable difference is that you need two class members where you
previously could access the `Subject` directly. This is an intentional
trade-off we've made to ensure that all new outputs implement the
`OutputRef` interface and we are exposing a minimal API surface to
consumers of components that currently access the output
programmatically.

By default, `toSignal` transforms an `Observable` into a `Signal`, including
the error channel of the Observable. When an error is received, the signal
begins throwing the error.
`toSignal` is intended to serve the same purpose as the `async` pipe, but
the async pipe has a different behavior with errors: it rejects them
outright, throwing them back into RxJS. Rx then propagates the error into
the browser's uncaught error handling logic. In the case of Angular, the
error is then caught by zone.js and reported via the application's
`ErrorHandler`.
This commit introduces a new option for `toSignal` called `rejectErrors`.
With that flag set, `toSignal` copies the async pipe's behavior, allowing
for easier migrations.

This commit reorganizes the Angular code a bit, and moves signals into a

Revert (with improvements of): dcf18dc74c
We recently landed a change that allows `toSignal` to be called
from within reactive contexts (e.g. `effect`/`computed`). After
more thorough investigatio and consideration with the team, we
feel like allowing `toSignal` to be called in such contexts is
encouraging non-ideal / hard-to-notice code patterns.
e.g. a new subscription to an observable is made every time `toSignal`
is invoked. There is no caching done here. Additionally, multiple new
subscriptions can trigger unintended side-effects- that may slow down
the app, result in incorrect/unexpected behavior or perform unnecessary
work.
Users should instead move the `toSignal` call outside of the `computed`
or `effect` and then read the signal values from within their `computed`. e.g.
```ts
computed(() => {
const smth = toSignal(coldObservable$)
return smth() + 2;
}
```
--> should instead be:
```ts
const smth = toSignal(coldObsverable$);
computed(() => smth() + 2);
```
In cases where a new subscription for each invocation is actually intended, a manual
subscription can be made. That way it's also much more obvious to users
that they are triggering side-effects every time, or causing new
subscriptions.
PR Close#52049
This PR moves the Observable subscription of toSignal outside of the
reactive context. As the result the toSignal calls are allowed in the
computed, effect and all other reactive consumers.
This is based on the reasoning that we already allow signals creation
in a reactive context. Plus a similar change was done to the async pipe
in the https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/50522Fixes#51027
PR Close#51831
This commit introduces an interface for `toSignal` options to mirror that of
`toObservable`, and adjusts docs for both symbols. It also adds the ability
for `toSignal` to manually specify `DestroyRef` (similarly to
`toObservable` accepting an injector) or for `toSignal` automatic cleanup to
be disabled (in which case the subscription persists until the Observable
completes). Either option allows `toSignal` to be used outside of a DI
context, like `toObservable`.
PR Close#50071
As described in
https://github.com/angular/angular/discussions/49681#discussioncomment-5628930,
if an `Observable` created from a signal with `toObservable` is
subscribed to in a template, it will initially have `null` as the value.
Immediately after the template is done executing, effects are flushed
and this results in the `AsyncPipe` getting a new value before the
`checkNoChanges` pass, resulting in `ExpressionChanged` error.
```
template: '{{obs$ | async}}'
...
obs$ = toObservable(signal(0));
```
Instead, this commit updates the `toObservable` to synchronously emit
the initial value to the Observable stream.
Side note here: We don't exactly encourage this pattern. Instead of
using `AsyncPipe`, the template should just read signals.
PR Close#49894
The initial value used for signals by default is now `undefined`. In
addition, there is a new option to express that the signal should emit a
value synchronously (`requireSync: true`). When this value is specified,
the function will throw _on creation_ if the subscribing to the
`Observable` does not result in a synchronous emit.
