- Fixed field column name conflict on record deletion (#1220).
-
Moved the record file upload and delete out of the db transaction to minimize the locking times.
-
Added
Dao
query semaphore and base fail/retry handling to improve the concurrent writes throughput (#1187). -
Fixed records cascade deletion when there are "A<->B" relation references.
-
Replaced
c.QueryString()
withc.QueryParams().Encode()
to allow loading middleware modified query parameters in the default crud actions (#1210). -
Fixed the datetime field not triggerering the
onChange
event on manual field edit and added a "Clear" button (#1219). -
Updated the GitHub goreleaser action to use go 1.19.4 since it comes with some security fixes.
-
Fixed concurrent multi-relation cascade update/delete (#1138).
-
Added the raw OAuth2 user data (
meta.rawUser
) and OAuth2 access token (meta.accessToken
) to the auth response (#654). -
BaseModel.UnmarkAsNew()
method was renamed toBaseModel.MarkAsNotNew()
. Additionally, to simplify the insert model queries with custom IDs, it is no longer required to callMarkAsNew()
for manually initialized models with set ID since now this is the default state. When the model is populated with values from the database (eg. after rowScan
) it will be marked automatically as "not new". -
Added
Record.OriginalCopy()
method that returns a newRecord
copy populated with the initially loaded record data (useful if you want to compare old and new field values). -
Added new event hooks:
app.OnBeforeBootstrap() app.OnAfterBootstrap() app.OnBeforeApiError() app.OnAfterApiError() app.OnRealtimeDisconnectRequest() app.OnRealtimeBeforeMessageSend() app.OnRealtimeAfterMessageSend() app.OnRecordBeforeRequestPasswordResetRequest() app.OnRecordAfterRequestPasswordResetRequest() app.OnRecordBeforeConfirmPasswordResetRequest() app.OnRecordAfterConfirmPasswordResetRequest() app.OnRecordBeforeRequestVerificationRequest() app.OnRecordAfterRequestVerificationRequest() app.OnRecordBeforeConfirmVerificationRequest() app.OnRecordAfterConfirmVerificationRequest() app.OnRecordBeforeRequestEmailChangeRequest() app.OnRecordAfterRequestEmailChangeRequest() app.OnRecordBeforeConfirmEmailChangeRequest() app.OnRecordAfterConfirmEmailChangeRequest()
-
The original uploaded file name is now stored as metadata under the
original_filename
key. It could be accessed via:fs, _ := app.NewFilesystem() defer fs.Close() attrs, _ := fs.Attributes(fikeKey) attrs.Metadata["original_name"]
-
Added support for
Partial/Range
file requests (#1125). This is a minor breaking change if you are usingfilesystem.Serve
(eg. as part of a customOnFileDownloadRequest
hook):// old filesystem.Serve(res, e.ServedPath, e.ServedName) // new filesystem.Serve(res, req, e.ServedPath, e.ServedName)
-
Refactored the
migrate
command to support external JavaScript migration files using an embedded JS interpreter (goja). This allow writting custom migration scripts such as programmatically creating collections, initializing default settings, running data imports, etc., with a JavaScript API very similar to the Go one (more documentation will be available soon).The
migrate
command is available by default for the prebult executable, but if you use PocketBase as framework you need register it manually:migrationsDir := "" // default to "pb_migrations" (for js) and "migrations" (for go) // load js files if you want to allow loading external JavaScript migrations jsvm.MustRegisterMigrations(app, &jsvm.MigrationsOptions{ Dir: migrationsDir, }) // register the `migrate` command migratecmd.MustRegister(app, app.RootCmd, &migratecmd.Options{ TemplateLang: migratecmd.TemplateLangJS, // or migratecmd.TemplateLangGo (default) Dir: migrationsDir, Automigrate: true, })
The refactoring also comes with automigrations support.
If
Automigrate
is enabled (true
by default for the prebuilt executable; can be disabled with--automigrate=0
), PocketBase will generate seamlessly in the background JS (or Go) migration file with your collection changes. The directory with the JS migrations can be committed to your git repo. All migrations (Go and JS) are automatically executed on server start. Also note that the auto generated migrations are granural (in contrast to themigrate collections
snapshot command) and allow multiple developers to do changes on the collections independently (even editing the same collection) miniziming the eventual merge conflicts. Here is a sample JS migration file that will be generated if you for example edit a single collection name:// pb_migrations/1669663597_updated_posts_old.js migrate((db) => { // up const dao = new Dao(db) const collection = dao.findCollectionByNameOrId("lngf8rb3dqu86r3") collection.name = "posts_new" return dao.saveCollection(collection) }, (db) => { // down const dao = new Dao(db) const collection = dao.findCollectionByNameOrId("lngf8rb3dqu86r3") collection.name = "posts_old" return dao.saveCollection(collection) })
-
Added new
Dao
helpers to make it easier fetching and updating the app settings from a migration:dao.FindSettings([optEncryptionKey]) dao.SaveSettings(newSettings, [optEncryptionKey])
-
Moved
core.Settings
tomodels/settings.Settings
:core.Settings{} -> settings.Settings{} core.NewSettings() -> settings.New() core.MetaConfig{} -> settings.MetaConfig{} core.LogsConfig{} -> settings.LogsConfig{} core.SmtpConfig{} -> settings.SmtpConfig{} core.S3Config{} -> settings.S3Config{} core.TokenConfig{} -> settings.TokenConfig{} core.AuthProviderConfig{} -> settings.AuthProviderConfig{}
-
Changed the
mailer.Mailer
interface (minor breaking if you are sending custom emails):// Old: app.NewMailClient().Send(from, to, subject, html, attachments?) // New: app.NewMailClient().Send(&mailer.Message{ From: from, To: to, Subject: subject, HTML: html, Attachments: attachments, // new configurable fields Bcc: []string{"bcc1@example.com", "bcc2@example.com"}, Cc: []string{"cc1@example.com", "cc2@example.com"}, Headers: map[string]string{"Custom-Header": "test"}, Text: "custom plain text version", })
The new
*mailer.Message
struct is also now a member of theMailerRecordEvent
andMailerAdminEvent
events. -
Other minor UI fixes and improvements
The biggest change is the merge of the User
models and the profiles
collection per #376.
There is no longer user
type field and the users are just an "auth" collection (we now support collection types, currently only "base" and "auth").
This should simplify the users management and at the same time allow us to have unlimited multiple "auth" collections each with their own custom fields and authentication options (eg. staff, client, etc.).
In addition to the Users
and profiles
merge, this release comes with several other improvements:
-
Added indirect expand support #312.
-
The
json
field type now supports filtering and sorting #423. -
The
relation
field now allows unlimittedmaxSelect
(aka. without upper limit). -
Added support for combined email/username + password authentication (see below
authWithPassword()
). -
Added support for full "manager-subordinate" users management, including a special API rule to allow directly changing system fields like email, password, etc. without requiring
oldPassword
or other user verification. -
Enabled OAuth2 account linking on authorized request from the same auth collection (this is useful for example if the OAuth2 provider doesn't return an email and you want to associate it with the current logged in user).
-
Added option to toggle the record columns visibility from the table listing.
-
Added support for collection schema fields reordering.
-
Added several new OAuth2 providers (Microsoft Azure AD, Spotify, Twitch, Kakao).
-
Improved memory usage on large file uploads #835.
-
More detailed API preview docs and site documentation (the repo is located at https://github.com/pocketbase/site).
-
Other minor performance improvements (mostly related to the search apis).
The merge of users and profiles comes with several required db changes.
The easiest way to apply them is to use the new temporary upgrade
command:
# make sure to have a copy of your pb_data in case something fails
cp -r ./pb_data ./pb_data_backup
# run the upgrade command
./pocketbase08 upgrade
# start the application as usual
./pocketbase08 serve
The upgrade command:
- Creates a new
users
collection with merged fields from the_users
table and theprofiles
collection. The new user records will have the ids from theprofiles
collection. - Changes all
user
type fields torelation
and update the references to point to the new user ids. - Renames all
@collection.profiles.*
,@request.user.*
and@request.user.profile.*
filters to@collection.users.*
and@request.auth.*
. - Appends
2
to all schema field names and api filter rules that conflicts with the new system reserved ones:collectionId => collectionId2 collectionName => collectionName2 expand => expand2 // only for the "profiles" collection fields: username => username2 email => email2 emailVisibility => emailVisibility2 verified => verified2 tokenKey => tokenKey2 passwordHash => passwordHash2 lastResetSentAt => lastResetSentAt2 lastVerificationSentAt => lastVerificationSentAt2
Please check the individual SDK package changelog and apply the necessary changes in your code:
-
npm install pocketbase@latest --save
-
dart pub add pocketbase:^0.5.0 # or with Flutter: flutter pub add pocketbase:^0.5.0
You don't have to read this if you are using an official SDK.
-
The authorization schema is no longer necessary. Now it is auto detected from the JWT token payload:
Old New Authorization: Admin TOKEN Authorization: TOKEN Authorization: User TOKEN Authorization: TOKEN -
All datetime stings are now returned in ISO8601 format - with Z suffix and space as separator between the date and time part:
Old New 2022-01-02 03:04:05.678 2022-01-02 03:04:05.678Z -
Removed the
@
prefix from the system record fields for easier json parsing:Old New @collectionId collectionId @collectionName collectionName @expand expand -
All users api handlers are moved under
/api/collections/:collection/
:Old New GET /api/users/auth-methods GET /api/collections/:collection/auth-methods POST /api/users/refresh POST /api/collections/:collection/auth-refresh POST /api/users/auth-via-oauth2 POST /api/collections/:collection/auth-with-oauth2
You can now also pass optionalcreateData
object on OAuth2 sign-up.
Also please note that now required user/profile fields are properly validated when creating new auth model on OAuth2 sign-up.POST /api/users/auth-via-email POST /api/collections/:collection/auth-with-password
Handles username/email + password authentication.
{"identity": "usernameOrEmail", "password": "123456"}
POST /api/users/request-password-reset POST /api/collections/:collection/request-password-reset POST /api/users/confirm-password-reset POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-password-reset POST /api/users/request-verification POST /api/collections/:collection/request-verification POST /api/users/confirm-verification POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-verification POST /api/users/request-email-change POST /api/collections/:collection/request-email-change POST /api/users/confirm-email-change POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-email-change GET /api/users GET /api/collections/:collection/records GET /api/users/:id GET /api/collections/:collection/records/:id POST /api/users POST /api/collections/:collection/records PATCH /api/users/:id PATCH /api/collections/:collection/records/:id DELETE /api/users/:id DELETE /api/collections/:collection/records/:id GET /api/users/:id/external-auths GET /api/collections/:collection/records/:id/external-auths DELETE /api/users/:id/external-auths/:provider DELETE /api/collections/:collection/records/:id/external-auths/:provider In relation to the above changes, the
user
property in the auth response is renamed torecord
. -
The admins api was also updated for consistency with the users api changes:
Old New POST /api/admins/refresh POST /api/admins/auth-refresh POST /api/admins/auth-via-email POST /api/admins/auth-with-password
{"identity": "test@example.com", "password": "123456"}
(notice that theemail
body field was renamed toidentity
) -
To prevent confusion with the auth method responses, the following endpoints now returns 204 with empty body (previously 200 with token and auth model):
POST /api/admins/confirm-password-reset POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-password-reset POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-verification POST /api/collections/:collection/confirm-email-change
-
Renamed the "user" related settings fields returned by
GET /api/settings
:Old New userAuthToken recordAuthToken userPasswordResetToken recordPasswordResetToken userEmailChangeToken recordEmailChangeToken userVerificationToken recordVerificationToken
You don't have to read this if you are not using PocketBase as framework.
-
Removed
forms.New*WithConfig()
factories to minimize ambiguities. If you need to pass a transaction Dao you can use the newSetDao(dao)
method available to the form instances. -
forms.RecordUpsert.LoadData(data map[string]any)
now can bulk load external data from a map. To load data from a request instance, you could useforms.RecordUpsert.LoadRequest(r, optKeysPrefix = "")
. -
schema.RelationOptions.MaxSelect
has new type*int
(you can use the newtypes.Pointer(123)
helper to assign pointer values). -
Renamed the constant
apis.ContextUserKey
("user") toapis.ContextAuthRecordKey
("authRecord"). -
Replaced user related middlewares with their auth record alternative:
Old New apis.RequireUserAuth() apis.RequireRecordAuth(optCollectionNames ...string) apis.RequireAdminOrUserAuth() apis.RequireAdminOrRecordAuth(optCollectionNames ...string) N/A RequireSameContextRecordAuth()
(requires the auth record to be from the same context collection) -
The following record Dao helpers now uses the collection id or name instead of
*models.Collection
instance to reduce the verbosity when fetching records:Old New dao.FindRecordById(collection, ...) dao.FindRecordById(collectionNameOrId, ...) dao.FindRecordsByIds(collection, ...) dao.FindRecordsByIds(collectionNameOrId, ...) dao.FindRecordsByExpr(collection, ...) dao.FindRecordsByExpr(collectionNameOrId, ...) dao.FindFirstRecordByData(collection, ...) dao.FindFirstRecordByData(collectionNameOrId, ...) dao.IsRecordValueUnique(collection, ...) dao.IsRecordValueUnique(collectionNameOrId, ...) -
Replaced all User related Dao helpers with Record equivalents:
Old New dao.UserQuery() dao.RecordQuery(collection) dao.FindUserById(id) dao.FindRecordById(collectionNameOrId, id) dao.FindUserByToken(token, baseKey) dao.FindAuthRecordByToken(token, baseKey) dao.FindUserByEmail(email) dao.FindAuthRecordByEmail(collectionNameOrId, email) N/A dao.FindAuthRecordByUsername(collectionNameOrId, username) -
Moved the formatted
ApiError
struct and factories to thegithub.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/apis
subpackage:Old New Import path github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/tools/rest github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/apis Fields rest.ApiError{} apis.ApiError{} rest.NewNotFoundError() apis.NewNotFoundError() rest.NewBadRequestError() apis.NewBadRequestError() rest.NewForbiddenError() apis.NewForbiddenError() rest.NewUnauthorizedError() apis.NewUnauthorizedError() rest.NewApiError() apis.NewApiError() -
