v1.9.0

Version 1.9.0 of Medusa introduces database schema changes which require running the migrations command. Additionally, it ships with a minor breaking change to the events system.

Overview​

This release introduces a new column metadata on Sales Channels. It is required to run migrations to ensure your backend works as expected.

This release also comes with a breaking change to the events system. It is required to update your event bus packages to ensure events are handled correctly.

In the core EventBusService, a check has been introduced to only insert staged jobs (in other words, fire events), if there are subscribers to it.


How to Update

Run the following command in the root directory of your Medusa Backend to update the core:

npm install @medusajs/medusa@1.9.0

Then, update your event bus dependency. If you are using an official package, run one of these two commands based on the package you have installed:

npm install @medusajs/event-bus-redis@1.8.3
# or
npm install @medusajs/event-bus-local@1.8.3

It's also recommended to update any other Medusa plugins or packages you have installed.


Actions Required​

Run Migrations​

After updating your Medusa backend and before running it, run the following command to run the latest migrations:

npx @medusajs/medusa-cli migrations run
