Release Notes for the last candidate of the v0.25, with the rc1, rc2, rc3 and rc4 notes consolidated in a single document

Decidim Release Notes v0.25.0 (rc1-rc4).md

Upgrade notes

As prerequisites, you'll need:

• Node.js version 16.9.x (this version is mandatory)
• Npm version 7.21.x (it works with other versions, but this is the recommended)

We strongly recommend that you have a database and static files backup as this is a huge release. It's the biggest release from the beginning, as we're updating to Rails 6, migrating to Webpacker and ActiveStorage.

To update, follow these steps:

Update your Gemfile:

gem "decidim", "0.25.0.rc4"
gem "decidim-dev", "0.25.0.rc4"

Run these commands to upgrade and make sure you get all the latest migrations:

bundle update decidim
bin/rails decidim:upgrade
bin/rails db:migrate

And then follow the steps and commands detailed in these notes, especially the ones about Rail 6 upgrade, migrating to Webpacker and migrating to Active Storage.

Again, we strongly recommend that you have a full backup of your database and static files before updating to this release.

General notes

Rails 6 upgrade

As per #7471, we have upgraded to Ruby on Rails 6.0. Depending on how much code you've you'll need to check in your app and modules that they are compatible with Rails 6. For more information about how to do this read Ruby on Rails 6.0 Release Notes.

There are a couple of legacy migrations that need to be changed so the app works as expected:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decidim/decidim/3af2148a427f86f99209798f8cd3599d017a865a/decidim-forms/db/migrate/20170515144119_create_decidim_forms_answers.rb -O $(ls db/migrate/*_create_decidim_forms_answers.decidim_forms.rb)
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decidim/decidim/3af2148a427f86f99209798f8cd3599d017a865a/decidim-initiatives/db/migrate/20191002082220_move_signature_type_to_initative_type.rb -O $(ls db/migrate/*_move_signature_type_to_initative_type.decidim_initiatives.rb)

Webpacker migration

As per #7464 and #7733 Decidim has been upgraded to use Webpacker to manage its assets. It's a huge change that requires some updates in your applications. Please refer to the guides:

• Migrate to Webpacker an instance app
• Migrate to Webpacker a module

ActiveStorage migration

As per #7598 and #7902 we migrate from CarrierWave to ActiveStorage. To enable this migration we provide two tasks:

rails decidim:active_storage_migrations:migrate_from_carrierwave_to_active_storage
rails decidim:active_storage_migrations:check_migration_from_carrierwave_to_active_storage
# Replace legacy migration. See full explanation for details
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decidim/decidim/c9ed6740e8025fd482b49dad71cc1788b5e572c0/decidim-core/db/migrate/20180810092428_move_organization_fields_to_hero_content_block.rb -O $(ls db/migrate/*_move_organization_fields_to_hero_content_block.decidim.rb) 

See full explanation (click to expand)

PR #7598 migrates attachments from CarrierWave to ActiveStorage. There was a migration to move some organization fields to a content block (decidim-core/db/migrate/20180810092428_move_organization_fields_to_hero_content_block.rb) including the use of CarrierWave to migrate an image. This part has been removed. Please, if your application has the old migration replace its content with the changed file to avoid errors in the future because CarrierWave dependency will be eliminated.

PR#7902 provides a task to migrate existing CarrierWave attachment files to ActiveStorage. Keep in mind that the ActiveStorage migration PRs don't delete CarrierWave attachments and preserve the columns used by it. To guarantee the access to CarrierWave files the gem must be installed (the current core engine maintains that dependency) and configured as it was before the migration to ActiveStorage. The task downloads each file using CarrierWave uploaders and uploads it again using ActiveStorage. This PR provides 2 tasks:

• The task to copy files to ActiveStorage. The task generates a log file in log/ with a line with the result of each migration. The result can be:
  • [OK] Migrated - [OK] Checksum identical if the file was copied successfully and the checksums of the origin and copied files are identical. This should be the expected result.
  • [KO] Migrated - [KO] Checksum different if the file was copied successfully but the checksums are different.
  • [SKIP] Migrated The migration was skipped because the task detected that there was already an existing file attached with ActiveStorage (the other task allows us to check if CarrierWave and ActiveStorage files are identical.
  • [ERROR] Exception if any error prevents the migration of the file. The error message is included in the result.

The task also creates a mapping of paths in tmp/attachment_mappings.csv with the id of the instance, the name of the CarrierWave attribute and its origin path and the destination path in ActiveStorage. To run this task execute:

rails decidim:active_storage_migrations:migrate_from_carrierwave_to_active_storage

Note that the migration generates instances of ActiveStorage::Attachment in case they are not yet created. To repeat the migration from scratch it would be enough to delete all ActiveStorage::Attachment items (be careful not to delete attachments that were created earlier with ActiveStorage)

• The task to check migration and compare files. This task finds each CarrierWave attachment file and looks for corresponding ActiveStorage attachment and compares them if possible. The result for each attachment can be:
  • [OK] Checksum identical if both files exist and checkums are identical.
  • [KO] Checksum different if both files exist but checkums are different.
  • [SKIP] Pending migration if the ActiveStorage file is not present.
  • [ERROR] Exception if there is any error in the checking process. The error message is included in the result.

To run this task execute:

rails decidim:active_storage_migrations:check_migration_from_carrierwave_to_active_storage

Statistics change

As per #8147, the participants stats will not take into account deleted and blocked users.

Meetings merge minutes and close actions

With changes introduced in #7968 the Decidim::Meetings::Minutes model and related table are removed and the attributes of the previously existing minutes are migrated to Decidim::Meetings::Meeting model in the closing_report, video_url, audio_url and closing_visible columns.

See full explanation (click to expand)

These are the different results of the merge according to the initial data:

• It there was no minutes data and the meeting was not closed nothing changes
• If there was no minutes data and the meeting was closed, the meeting remains closed with the closing_visible attribute to true. In this way the closing data will remain visible.
• If there was minutes data and the meeting was not closed, the meeting is closed and the minutes description value is copied to the meeting closing_report, the video_url and audio_url minutes attributes values are copied to the respective meeting attributes and the minutes visible attribute value is copied to the meeting closing_visible attribute.
• If there was minutes data and the meeting was closed, the meeting remains closed and the meeting closing_report value remains if present. Elsewere the minutes description value is copied to the meeting closing_report. the video_url and audio_url minutes attributes values are copied to the respective meeting attributes and the minutes visible attribute value is copied to the meeting closing_visible attribute. In this case the visibility of closing report may change to false if there was a minutes with visible set to false.

Please, note that if there was previously minutes_description and closing_report data for a meeting, after applying the changes of this release, the minutes_description data will be lost.

If there is previous activity of creation or edition of minutes, Decidim::ActionLog instances and an associated PaperTrail::Version instance for each one will have been created pointing to these elements in their polymorphic associations. To avoid errors, the migration includes changing those associations to point to the meeting and changing the action to close in the action log items. This change is not reversible

New Job queues

PR #7986 splits some jobs from the :default queue to two new queues:

• :exports
• :translations

If your application uses Sidekiq and you set a manual configuration file, you'll need to update it to add these two new queues. Otherwise these queues will never run.

User groups in global search

PR #8061 adds user groups to the global search and previously existing groups need to be indexed, otherwise it won't be available as search results. Run in a rails console or create a migration with:

  Decidim::UserGroup.find_each(&:try_update_index_for_search_resource)

Please be aware that it could take a while if your database has a lot of groups.

Comments statistics change

• #8012 Participatory space to comments, to fix the statistics. Use rake decidim_comments:update_participatory_process_in_comments to migrate existing comments to the new structure.

Improved menu API

As per #7368, #7382 the entire admin structure has been migrated from menus being rendered in partials, to the existing menu structure. Before, this change adding a new menu item to an admin submenu required partial override.

See full explanation and examples (click to expand)

As per #7545 the menu API has been enhanced to support removal of elements and reordering. All the menu items have an identifier that allow any developer to interact without overriding the entire menu structure. As a result of this change, the old menu.item function has been deprecated in favour of a more verbose version menu.add_item , of which first argument is the menu identifier.

You can read more about that at the Menu customization documentation.

Example on adding new elements to a menu:

Decidim.menu :menu do |menu|
  menu.add_item :root,
                I18n.t("menu.home", scope: "decidim"),
                decidim.root_path,
                position: 1,
                active: :exclusive

  menu.add_item :pages,
                I18n.t("menu.help", scope: "decidim"),
                decidim.pages_path,
                position: 7,
                active: :inclusive
end

Example Customizing the elements of a menu:

Decidim.menu :menu do |menu|
  # Completely remove a menu item
  menu.remove_item :my_item

  # Change the items order
  menu.move :root, after: :pages
  # alternative
  menu.move :pages, before: :root
end
