Migration from 0.15.X to 0.16.X

What's new in 0.16.0?

Env variables validation with Zod

Wasp now uses Zod to validate environment variables, allowing it to fail faster if something is misconfigured. This means you’ll get more relevant error messages when running your app with incorrect env variables.

You can also use Zod to validate your own environment variables. Here’s an example:

// src/env.ts
import * as z from 'zod'

import { defineEnvValidationSchema } from 'wasp/env'

export const serverEnvValidationSchema = defineEnvValidationSchema(
  z.object({
    STRIPE_API_KEY: z.string({
      required_error: 'STRIPE_API_KEY is required.',
    }),
  })
)

// main.wasp
app myApp {
  ...
  server: {
    envValidationSchema: import { serverEnvValidationSchema } from "@src/env",
  },
}

Read more about it in the env variables section of the docs.

How to migrate?

To migrate your Wasp app from 0.15.X to 0.16.X, follow these steps:

1. Bump the Wasp version

Update the version field in your Wasp file to ^0.16.0:

main.wasp

app MyApp {
  wasp: {
    version: "^0.16.0"
  },
}

1.1 Additional step for Wasp TS Config users

If you're using Wasp's new TS config, you must also rerun the wasp ts-setup command in your project. This command updates the path for the wasp-config package in your package.json.

2. Update the package.json file

Make sure to explicitly add react-dom and react-router-dom to your package.json file:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "react-dom": "^18.2.0",
    "react-router-dom": "^6.26.2"
  }
}

3. Update the tsconfig.json file

Wasp now internally works with TypeScript project references, so you'll have to update your tsconfig.json (Wasp will validate your tsconfig.json and warn you if you forget something). Here are all the properties you must change:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // ...
    "composite": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "outDir": ".wasp/out/user"
  },
  "include": [
    "src"
  ]
}

4. Enjoy your updated Wasp app

That's it!

You should now be able to run your app with the new Wasp 0.16.0.
