Proposal: report-issue command about angular-cli HOT 10 CLOSED

Thinking about this again in the context of the volume of issue reports we get that are inactionable. Maybe we should route most users to file issues using a feedback command in the CLI rather than type them into github

from angular-cli.

You mean create a tool that wraps the output from ng version and adds the list of packages, and put that automatically in a GitHub issue, including a couple of placeholders for the problems?

I don't think we ever want user code unless it's already a repro app. Both because of the proprietary bit, but also because it's usually confounded by a lot of project specific logic. It's hard for us to unravel the real problem inside a real project.

Perhaps we could have a wizard for making repros. Something like:

> ng repro --create
Creating reproduction app
Reproduction created in repro-1234asdf
Please add a commit with the minimum code to reproduce the issue and run 'ng repro --submit`
# user adds repro
> ng repro --submit
Please open https://github.com/new in your browser and follow the instructions there to upload your reproduction.

Then fill in a new issue at https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/new with the link to your repro. Thanks!

I also remember some years ago that Ionic had a fantastic wizard to submit issues online, that also looked up issues with similar names and guided you through the process.

It doesn't seem to be working right now though: https://ionicframework.com/submit-issue/

We could have such a support website with the wizard and a knowledge base of the error codes.

Can we achieve this with the telemetry? If we can, do we need to keep this issue open?

Just a heads up that we kicked off a community voting process for your feature request. There are 20 days until the voting process ends.

Find more details about Angular's feature request process in our documentation.

Thank you for submitting your feature request! Looks like during the polling process it didn't collect a sufficient number of votes to move to the next stage.

We want to keep Angular rich and ergonomic and at the same time be mindful about its scope and learning journey. If you think your request could live outside Angular's scope, we'd encourage you to collaborate with the community on publishing it as an open source package.

You can find more details about the feature request process in our documentation.

Closing as this is currently note in the CLI roadmap.
Let's reconsider this in the future.
