How to upgrade RedwoodJS packages to v0.11.0
IMPORTANT: Skipping versions when upgrading is not recommended and will likely cause problems. Do read through all Release Notes between your current version and this latest version. Each minor release will likely require you to implement breaking change fixes and apply manual code modifications.
Manual Code Change
This release includes an improvement to the command used by Netlify build, which was added to the Redwood template in this commit. To manually implement the change, follow these steps:
- In your project root directory, open the file
netlify.toml - Change the build command to be
yarn rw db up --no-db-client --auto-approve && yarn rw build
This adds the flag --auto-approve , which fixes an error some users experienced when applying migration changes to the DB.
If the Current Version is > v0.6.0
Redwood v0.6.0 included a new CLI command to upgrade @redwoodjs NPM packages. Run the following command within your App directory:
yarn rw upgrade
If the Current Version is < v0.6.0
Manually update the following @redwoodjs/* packages.
Root directory package.json
"@redwoodjs/core": "^0.11.0”
web/package.json
"@redwoodjs/web": "^0.11.0”"@redwoodjs/router": "^0.11.0”"@redwoodjs/auth": "^0.11.0”(if installed)
api/package.json
"@redwoodjs/api": "^0.11.0”
