title: Migration Guide
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Generally, the intention is that `unleash-server` should always provide support for clients one major version lower than the current one. This should make it possible to upgrade `unleash` gradually.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading from v2.x to v3.x
|
|
|
|
The notable change introduced in Unleash v3.x is a strict separation of API paths for client requests and admin requests. This makes it easier to implement different authentication mechanisms for the admin UI and all unleash-clients. You can read more about [securing unleash](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/blob/master/docs/securing-unleash.md).
|
|
|
|
The recommended approach is to first upgrade the `unleash-server` to v3 (which still supports v2 clients). After this is done, you should upgrade all your clients to v3.
|
|
|
|
After upgrading all your clients, you should consider turning off legacy routes, used by v2 clients. Read more about this option in the [Getting started guide](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash/blob/master/docs/getting-started.md#2-or-programmatically).

## Upgrading from v1.0 to v2.0

### Caveat 1: Not used db-migrate to migrate the unleash database?
|
|
|
|
In FINN we used liquibase, for internal reasons, to migrate our database.
|
|
Because unleash from version 2.0 migrates the database internally, with db-migrate, you need to make sure that all previous migrations for version 1 exist, so that Unleash does not try to create already existing tables.
|
|
|
|
#### How to check?
|
|
|
|
If you don't have a "migrations" table with _7 unique migrations_ you are affected by this.
|
|
|
|
#### How to fix?
|
|
|
|
Before starting unleash version 2 you have to run the SQL located under `scripts/fix-migrations-version-1.sql`
|
|
|
|
### Caveat 2: databaseUrl (not database*Uri*)
|
|
|
|
Using Unleash as a library and injecting your own config? Then you should know that we changed the `databaseUri` config param name to **databaseUrl**. This is to make sure the param is aligned with the environment variable `DATABASE_URL` and avoid multiple names for the same config param.
