Native support to pass additional options to angular-compiler plugin

[KeM1aL]

Which @angular/* package(s) are relevant/related to the feature request?

compiler

Description

I would like to enable a specific option to let me build a dependency. I need to pass deprecatedAssertSyntax = true and everything should be okay ... but I can't find a way to pass that option to the esbuild angular-compiler.

Proposed solution

Allow generic section to pass options to esbuild plugins

Alternatives considered

None

Can you provide additional information regarding the dependency you are trying to use? Without further information regarding the usage, enabling the ability to parse the syntax in third party libraries may not actually result in a working output.
Import assertions were never standardized and were only supported in v8 based browsers but support has since been removed. No browser officially supported by Angular can be used with an import assertion.

Would it be possible to raise an issue with the dependency to remove obsolete syntax that is not recommended for use?

I've created an issue in the dependency repository : reown-com/appkit#2880

But I try to find a way to use it before they release a new version including this change.

I can switch to webpack builder as I don't use ssr for now and maybe use Rules.Assert
https://webpack.js.org/configuration/module/
But I don't know how to customize my webpack config.

I don't know a solution for esbuild

Hm, I have the same issue now indeed, did you find a way to fix this in Angular?

Closing as @clydin's suggested. The best course of action is to raise an issue with the library author and address the problem upstream.
