Gramps Web API 3.0 (Gramps 6.0) compatibility
Today, version 3.0 of Gramps Web API, the backend of Gramps Web, has been released. Gramps Web API 3.0 is based on Gramps 6.0.
Release v25.5.0 of the Gramps Web frontend is fully compatible with Gramps Web API 3.0 and Gramps 6.0. Moreover, the Gramps Web Docker images (ghcr.io/gramps-project/grampsweb
) are based on Gramps 6.0 starting from this release. Gramps 6.0 brings many improvements under the hood and should also make many operations faster.
Please make sure to check the release notes and the upgrade documentation. Additional steps are necessary to upgrade your tree to the latest database schema.
Please report any issues you might encounter in the upgrade process via the usual channels. Most importantly, don't forget to back up your tree before you upgrade.
Other Improvements
Apart from the major change regarding the backend, a small improvement has also been made in the frontend: the home person can now be changed directly from the dashboard (previously, it linked to the settings page).
