    ⬆️ Upgrade notes

    ⬆️ > As always, make sure you have backups of the database before performing any upgrades. If you are using docker-compose, this is how a backup command might look: docker exec mastodon_db_1 pg_dump -Fc -U postgres postgres > name_of_the_backup.dump

    🐳 Non-Docker only:

    • ⬆️ The recommended Ruby version has been bumped to 2.6.4. You can upgrade, or you can continue using the old version by overwriting the .ruby-version file with e.g. 2.6.1 or 2.5.3 which were recommended previously
    • Install dependencies: bundle install and yarn install

    🐳 Both Docker and non-Docker:

    🚀 1. Run the pre-deployment database migrations by specifying the SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS=true environment variable:

    • Non-Docker: SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS=true RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails db:migrate
    • Docker: docker-compose run --rm -e SKIP_POST_DEPLOYMENT_MIGRATIONS=true web rails db:migrate 🍱 2. Precompile the assets:
    • Non-Docker: RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails assets:precompile
    • Docker: The assets are already precompiled during the build step
      1. Restart all Mastodon processes
      2. Clear cache:
    • Non-Docker: RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl cache clear
    • Docker: docker-compose run --rm web bin/tootctl cache clear 🚀 5. Now that the new code is running, we can finish the database migrations. This will run the post-deployment ones:
    • Non-Docker: RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails db:migrate
    • Docker: docker-compose run --rm web rails db:migrate
      1. Restart all Mastodon processes
      2. If you are using ElasticSearch, there are new indices to be deployed ( this step is likely to take a considerable amount of time , so running it through screen or tmux is advisable):
    • Non-Docker: RAILS_ENV=production bin/tootctl search deploy
    • Docker: docker-compose run --rm web bin/tootctl search deploy
