Come join us this Thursday for our first Redwood meetup of 2023 where I’ll go over the release notes for this major: https://lu.ma/redwood-townhall.

Changelog

Breaking

Decoupled auth

Node.js 16 and 18

• feat: bump node.js to 16, 18 #7183 by @jtoar

GraphQL Yoga v3 and GraphQL Armor

• Update to GraphQL Yoga v3 #6727 by @ardatan
• feature: Implement GraphQLArmor #7291 by @dthyresson

NavLink

• NavLink not highlighting when on sub pages #6939 by @razzeee

  The <NavLink> component takes a new prop, matchSubPaths, that makes it apply the class in the activeClassName prop to matching sub-paths:

  <NavLink activeClassName="activeTest" matchSubPaths to="/users">
    Users
  </NavLink>

  For example, if you have a NavLink to /users and set matchSubPaths, if the user navigates to /users/2, the activeClassName still applies. The useMatch hook takes the same parameter.

  The breaking part: the matchPath function, which is what this component uses under the hood, is no longer exported from @redwoodjs/router. If you’re using it, we recommend you use the useMatch hook instead. If useMatch doesn’t cover what you were using matchPath for, please let us know.
