Good morning! What better way to kick of Knowledge than with some super Service Portal goodness! Glad to meet you all, at least virtually. Looking forward to having some great discussions.
ROOM 1 ONLY: Hi everyone! If the class file share link http://sp.ht4.org isn't working for you (it was blocked for me) below is the final HTTPS URL: https://yansalabsdemo01.service-now.com/sptrain
Yes and no. You can load up any manner of dependencies you want within ServicePortal and utilize them. However, those add-ons will be in addition to the Angular-based framework is in place. As such, using other frameworks can add bloat to your deployment, and may conflict with the existing libraries. There currently is no capability to replace the Angular-based framework with another.
Internal SN folks may know better than I. I'm sure it will happen, but not sure where it is on the roadmap. As you likely know, Angular 2 and beyond are quite different from Angular 1, so the transition could be tricky.
I wondered the same thing but as Ben said, AngularJS 1 is very different from the later versions. None of it is transferable it seems. However, I think the framework that comes close is VueJS with the bindings and stuff.
I want to say that's a feature in Kingston. This maybe? https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/kingston-platform-administration/page/administer/localization/reference/r_TranslationTables.html
Absolutely! Many baseline widgets honor the language of the logged-in user currently. You can internationalize your custom widgets via a number of means, both server-side and client-side.
Using ${Content} allows ServiceNow to automatically translate "Content" if found in the Messages Table. "Content" can also be used as a key for longer texts. So using ${home_title} would be better than ${Welcome to the Self Service Portal for IT Management}
OR, you can use Server Sided coding, set a variable with a translation (data.home_title = gs.getMessage("key")) and then calling the server variable in the client sided code (c.data.home_title)
I've always been a Canon guy - but mostly because when I bought my first SLR the Canon Rebel had a good set of features at the right price point. When I switched to a DSLR, I already had Canon lenses, so it seemed best not to switch mounts. Though I do have a Nikon W300 for underwater shooting and I really like it.
Help on a issue having with sp-date-picker. When I load the widget in Chrome = no problems, when loaded in Firefox or Edge, get an error message of: {{translations['Enter date in format']}} {{format}}
For scoped Service Portals, yes - the portal files become a part of the associated Scoped Application, which can be sync'd to git via ServiceNow Studio. For non-scoped Service Portals, we're stuck with update sets.
I stick with Update Sets. To use the platform's GIT integration you need your portal to be in a scoped app. Even if you are in a scoped app, I wouldn't deploy via GIT. With GIT updates, the platform is uninstalling the app and reinstalling the app when delivering. This could cause problems in production environment.
I have code on the server side that does the following:
var todayGDT = new GlideDateTime();
var endDate = new GlideDate(); endDate.setValue(gs.getSession().getClientData("tk_week_end"));//For this week is 2018-05-11 var todayDate = new GlideDate();
// We need to correct the time to midnight on the current day // because the default GlideDate has the current time // somehow associated with it. todayDate.setValue(todayGDT.getYearLocalTime() + '-' + todayGDT.getMonthLocalTime() + '-' + todayGDT.getDayOfMonthLocalTime());
var dateDiff = gs.dateDiff(todayDate.getDisplayValue(), endDate.getDisplayValue(), true);
if(dateDiff < 0){ // this is a previous week data.taskDate = endDate.getDisplayValue(); } else { // this is the current week data.taskDate = todayDate.getDisplayValue(); }

It would be awesome to allow you to choose your framework in the portal. So which versions of angular, jquery, bootstrap, fontawesome etc. With addition to adding your own frameworks. I wouldnt bother with trying to migrate widgets between Angular 1 and 2, its just too different
During our last SNUG's someone shared the snexperiences.com website. The Innovation Design System has some great widgets and examples around bootstrap components.
There main website has some great overall/experience examples built out.
Yeah, it's not quite Sharks/Jets or Apple/Microsoft and most people seem to have what they used by what they were started with. I've used a friend's Nikon and liked it but am too used to the Canon ergonomics and have far too much glass to switch now.
