Notes for Gateway runners
Caution
It is MANDATORY to upgrade to v1.5.2 Gateway before upgrading node to v1.2.0 version (bottlenose protocol version support).
Warning
There will be one more upcoming release (v1.6.0). It will be required to update Gateway to that version before bottlenose protocol version will be enacted on network.
Possible upgrade scenarios
If you're upgrading from v1.5.1 Gateway version
Tip
This release doesn't contain any database migrations. It's safe to just upgrade your 1.5.1 Gateway version to 1.5.2
If you're upgrading from v1.4.4 or older Gateway version
Caution
This release MUST NOT be upgraded onto your existing Network Gateway installation as it has an incompatible database schema. There’s no database migration available. What it means is that this release MUST be deployed with an empty (wiped out) database. This will result in a lengthy (approx. 4 - 16 hours depending on your infrastructure) process of resynchronization. During the resynchronization majority of the GW API endpoints will not be available.
What’s new?
- Fixed broken Core API SDK
Note to Integrators
Please note that the Babylon Core API on the Node is more powerful than on Olympia.
Integrators looking to prepare for the Radix Babylon launch should start by considering if running their own node and using the Core API would work instead of running a Gateway and using the Gateway API.
Please see the guide for integrators here.
Running just a node is simpler than running a node and Gateway, and the Core API has a "long term support" section of the API, designed for tracking fungible balances and accounts, which is guaranteed to be compatible with mainnet launch - enabling integrators to prepare for mainnet launch immediately.
