Upgrading npm packages

Overview

Our packages are all published to our private npm account, along side these packages you'll also have an app. client for most customers, client & server for enterprise customers. Your app will need upgrading manually according to the changes you want to include.

Package updates

To update our packages you simply need to change them in your package.json and run either yarn or npm update.

Falcon platform packages are all pegged to the same version number so we recommend upgrading them all at the same time.

Falcon payment packages are also all pegged to the same version, but not to Falcon platform packages.

App updates

As mentioned, you'll need to update your app manually.

We recommend a code diff to view the changes and pick and choose the changes you need to include in your app.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Run npx @deity/create-falcon-app@2.7.0 my-project (replace 2.7.0 with your current version)
2. Commit my-project
3. Delete the my-project directory
4. Run npx @deity/create-falcon-app my-project (this will pull the latest version)
5. Compare the changes and copy across anything relevant into your app.
