Updating your fork

❗ ⚠️ Recently, one of the Ruby on Rails dependencies (mimemagic) yanked all its previous versions due to a licensing issue. Due to that, before upgrading to version 1.3.0, you must install shared-mime-info on your server and then continue with the following instructions.

⚠️ In your development environment, you must also install CMake and pkg-config; no need to do so on production, staging nor testing environments

Check how to keep your fork updated; if you're updating from release 1.2.0 you can just:

git checkout master
git pull
git checkout -b release
git fetch upstream tag 1.3.0
git merge 1.3.0
git checkout master
git merge release
git branch -d release
git push

⚙️ After deploying the new version, execute the release tasks:

bin/rake consul:execute_release_tasks RAILS_ENV=production

⚠️ In version 1.3.0 we update the i18n gem. If you're still defining language fallbacks using config.i18n.fallbacks = true (which we did until we changed it in CONSUL 1.1.0), you must replace it with config.i18n.fallbacks = [I18n.default_locale].

⚠️ If you've customized the config/api.yml file or you've deleloped services using the GraphQL API, make sure those services still work properly; we've updated the GraphQL version and there are some minor breaking changes in the new version.

⚠️ We've upgraded the PostgreSQL version used in our Dockerfile. If you've used Docker with PostgreSQL 9.4, you'll have to run pg_upgrade in your Docker image. In your development environment, alternatively you can remove the volume used to store the database with docker volume rm <volume_name>.

ℹ️ Due to the upgrade to Rails 5.2, when starting Puma you might get a warning which you can safely ignore:

#<Thread:0x00000000067ea620@/home/deploy/consul/shared/bundle/ruby/2.5.0/gems/activerecord-5.2.4.4/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:299 sleep> - /home/deploy/consul/shared/bundle/ruby/2.5.0/gems/activerecord-5.2.4.4/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb:301:in 'sleep'`.

ℹ️ We've started to use components, which are a way to group helpers and views together. Existing helpers and views will still work properly. If you'd like to customize a component, check the components customization documentation.
