[BUG] Abstract components are missing from output

Abstract components are not included by compodoc. Is it because they are not added to a Module perhaps? After Ivy, ng 9+, we have to decorate anything that is component-like with a Directive attribute.

Anyway it can’t be added to a module. Is there a way around this?

/**
* abstract components are not included
*/
@Directive()
// tslint:disable-next-line:directive-class-suffix
export abstract class AbstractComponent implements OnInit {
  ngOnInit() {}
}

Ok, @BeSpunky, fixed with next release, 1.1.12. Remove the @directive for both failing files LocalizedRouteAware and RouteAware

Found a possible workaround:

Decorate your abstract class as BOTH @Injectable() and @Directive(). Angular doesn’t complain, my tests keep passing and the class appears in the Injectables section.

❕ Not sure if there are any Angular side effects for a class decorated with both. In a small POC stackblitz I made everything worked as expected, no errors, nothing breaks. Please comment if you know of any side effect.

Cheers 🥂
