Trước khi cập nhật
Thay thế các provinderdowngradeComponent, downgradeInjectable, UpgradeComponent, and UpgradeModuleimported from @angular/upgrade. Instead use the new versions in @angular/upgrade/static
If you import any animations services or tools from @angular/core, you should import them from @angular/animations
Replace ngOutletContext with ngTemplateOutletContext.
Replace CollectionChangeRecord with IterableChangeRecord
Anywhere you use Renderer, now use Renderer2
If you use preserveQueryParams, instead use queryParamsHandling
Switch from HttpModule and the Http service to HttpClientModule and the HttpClientservice. HttpClient simplifies the default ergonomics (You don't need to map to json anymore) and now supports typed return values and interceptors. Read more on angular.io
If you use DOCUMENT from @angular/platform-browser, you should start to import this from @angular/common
Anywhere you use ReflectiveInjector, now use StaticInjector
Choose a value of off for preserveWhitespaces in your tsconfig.json to gain the benefits of this setting while the default is still to preserve whitespace.

Make sure you are using Node 8 or later
Update your Angular CLI globally and locally, and migrate the configuration to the new angular.json format by running the following:
npm install -g @angular/cli
npm install @angular/cli
ng update @angular/cli
Update any scripts you may have in your package.json to use the latest Angular CLI commands. All CLI commands now use two dashes for flags (eg ng build --prod --source-map) to be POSIX compliant.
Update all of your Angular framework packages to v6, and the correct version of RxJS and TypeScript.
ng update @angular/core
After the update, TypeScript and RxJS will more accurately flow types across your application, which may expose existing errors in your application's typings
In Angular Forms, AbstractControl#statusChanges now emits an event of PENDING when you call AbstractControl#markAsPending. Ensure that if you are filtering or checking events from statusChanges that you account for the new event when calling markAsPending.
If you use totalTime from an AnimationEvent within a disabled Zone, it will no longer report a time of 0. To detect if an animation event is reporting a disabled animation then the event.disabledproperty can be used instead.
ngModelChange is now emitted after the value/validity is updated on its control instead of before to better match expectations. If you rely on the order of these events, you will need to begin tracking the old value in your component.
Update Angular Material to the latest version.
ng update @angular/material
This will also automatically migrate deprecated APIs.
Use ng update or your normal package manager tools to identify and update other dependencies.
If you have TypeScript configured to be strict (if you have set strict to true in your tsconfig.json file), update your tsconfig.json to disable strictPropertyInitialization or move property initialization from ngOnInit to your constructor. You can learn more about this flag on the TypeScript 2.7 release notes.
Sau khi cập nhật
Remove deprecated RxJS 6 features using rxjs-tslint auto update rules.
For most applications this will mean running the following two commands:
npm install -g rxjs-tslint
rxjs-5-to-6-migrate -p src/tsconfig.app.json
Once you and all of your dependencies have updated to RxJS 6, remove rxjs-compat.
