How to upgrade RedwoodJS packages to v0.12.0

:point_right: 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.

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": "^0.12.0”
web/package.json
  • "@redwoodjs/web": "^0.12.0”
  • "@redwoodjs/router": "^0.12.0”
  • "@redwoodjs/auth": "^0.12.0” (if installed)

Congrats about the release! :clap:t4: :clap:t4: :clap:t4:

Question about Prisma update:
The new connectOrCreate and the transactionAPI needs to be defined on the generator client or it’s included out of the box in Redwood?

The Release notes in Prisma 2.1.0 says:

The experimentalFeatures field can be set like this:

generator client {
  provider = "prisma-client-js"
  experimentalFeatures = ["connectOrCreate", "transactionApi"]
}

Thanks!

Ah, great question --> it is NOT included out of the box in Redwood. You’ll need to setup your schema.prisma per the Prisma documentation. This also means you’ll be outside of Redwood Generator support: you might find the generators run successfully but the resulting code needs manual changes, or the generator might blow up. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

But would be very curious to know how it goes, so please keep us updated! :laughing:
