[Enhancement]: Support for Angular 14+ for @carbon/charts-angular

Contact Details

[e-mail]

Summary

Saw that a recent release of @carbon/charts-angular added support for Angular 13. Would it be possible to adjust it to support Angular 14 (now 14.1.0)? In my experience, there are very few breaking changes moving from Angular 13 to 14. I have been using Carbon Charts with Angular 14 for some time with no changes.

Justification

Would like to be able to use npm install. Carbon Charts Angular is the only package that forces us to use npm install --force.

Desired UX and success metrics

No changes to UX - just an improvement around tooling.

“Must have” functionality

Be able to run npm install when my project has a dependency on @carbon/charts-angular.

Specific timeline issues / requests

Should be possible without changes so I recommend this going into a minor release.

Available extra resources

I don’t foresee any changes other than to the package.json.

@theiliad - Is there a document that describes the overall approach for contributing (and testing)? Just cloned the repo and am running build for all of carbon-charts 1.5.1. Mainly, I’d like to focus on the Angular stuff a bit to see if we can get it to support Angular 14.1.x. For the entire 1.5.1 project on my Mac Book, yarn build never completes (but doesn’t error). It stalls out after…
