Highlights

Admin Extensions reaches general availability

We are excited to announce the general availability of Admin Extensibility, shipping alongside version 1.14.0 of Medusa Core and a brand-new component library.

To start using it, install the latest versions of the core and admin packages, and check out our guide to building your first Admin Widgets and UI Routes.

yarn add @medusajs/admin@latest @medusajs/medusa@latest

The following is a breaking change from the beta version released in June.

path should now have the format /<path> instead of <path>. A path with a trailing / will still throw an error.

Separately, it is worth highlighting that to use environment variables in Admin Extensions, they should be prefixed with MEDUSA_ADMIN_. Variables with this prefix are included in the admin build and otherwise omitted for security reasons. If you have used Next.js or Gatsby, the concept will be familiar to you.

UI Component Library

To build Admin Extensions with the same look and feel as Medusa Admin, we are excited to announce our new component Library, Medusa UI.

Medusa UI is a React implementation of the Medusa design system. Most components are based on Radix UI Primitives, and we use Tailwind CSS for styling, shipping our own preset with our customizations.

The library is a dependency of our Admin package, so you can start using it if you have the latest version of that installed. Alternatively, you can install it in a standalone project. However, this comes with the required configuration. See the documentation.

To help you get started with Medusa UI, we have published its own documentation. This should get you up and running and provide more information on the available components and how to use them. You will also find information on Medusa Icons we have made public and more details on theming.

Bulk Editor improvements

The following improvements have been shipped to the Bulk Editor

  • 2-dimensional selection
  • Keyboard navigation
    • Arrow
    • Shift + arrow
    • Command/ctrl + shift + arrow
    • Tab
    • Shit + tab
  • Copy/paste functionality

Extended create-medusa-app options

The following options have been added:

--no-browser: Disables opening the browser at the end of the project creation and only shows success message.

--skip-db: Skips creating the database, running migrations, and seeding, and subsequently skips opening the browser. Useful if you want to set the database URL at a later point in the configurations.

--db-url <url>: Skips database creation and sets the database URL to the provided URL. Throws an error if connection to the database fails. Will still run migrations and open the admin after project creation. Useful if you already have a database created, locally or remotely.

--no-migrations: Skips running migrations, creating admin user, and seeding. If used, it's expected that you pass the `--db-url` option with a URL of a database that has all necessary migrations. Otherwise, unexpected errors will occur. Helpful only if combined with `--db-url`.

--directory-path <path>: Allows specifying the parent directory path to create the directory of the new project in.

Important fix: Cart Shipping Methods

Shipping methods are now always deleted on cart line item updates. This was always the intention, but the functionality has been broken until now. This release patches the functionality.

Other breaking changes

The FlagRouter that manages feature flags has been removed from @medusajs/medusa and added to @medusajs/utils.

Highlights

Simplified entity extensions

We've simplified the steps to extend an entity so you no longer need to 1) override the entity's repository (step 4 from our guide) and 2) override the models in a custom entry point file.

Our documentation on Extending an Entity has been updated to reflect these changes.

Simplified validator extensions

We've simplified the steps to extend the API payload validation so you no longer have to create a util to perform an override and include it in a loader.

Our documentation will be updated very soon to reflect these changes.

To extend a validator, import and use a new util registerOverriddenValidators.

 import { registerOverriddenValidators } from "@medusajs/medusa"
 import { AdminPostProductsReq as MedusaAdminPostProductsReq } from "@medusajs/medusa/dist/api/routes/admin/products/create-product"
 import { IsString } from "class-validator"
 
 class AdminPostProductsReq extends MedusaAdminPostProductsReq {
    @IsString()
    test: string
 }
 
 registerOverriddenValidators(AdminPostProductsReq)

Highlights

Added invite option to Medusa CLI

We've added support for inviting users to @medusajs/medusa-cli.

Invites are generated using the following command:

medusa user -e [email protected] --invite

The command generates and outputs the token to use for signup. You should see the below in your terminal:

Invite token: some_token
Open the invite in Medusa Admin at: [your-admin-url]/invite?token=some_token

Replacing [your-admin-url] with the URL of your Medusa Admin and appending the /invite?token-some_token will allow the invited user to signup.

The URL end result should look like this: https://myadmin.com/invite?token=some_token

Filtering reservations

Advanced filter capabilities have been added to the Reservations overview in Medusa Admin.

reservations-filters.mp4

Node flags in develop command

We've added support for passing all node flags to our develop command from @medusajs/medusa-cli.

E.g. medusa develop -- --preserve-symlinks

Prefix for core Redis client

You can now configure the core Redis client with prefixes using the following project configuration:

const projectConfig = {
  redis_url: REDIS_URL,
  redis_prefix: "shared"
};

Highlights

Breaking changes
In our quest to improve performance, a public method in the PriceSelectionStrategy has been updated to support bulk calculations of variant prices. Specifically, the following signatures have changed:

// Before
calculateVariantPrice(variantId: string, context: PriceSelectionContext): Promise<PriceSelectionResult>
// Now
calculateVariantPrice(data: { variantId: string; quantity?: number; }[], context: PriceSelectionContext): Promise<Map<string, PriceSelectionResult>>

Additionally (non-breaking), the following DB indexes have been added:

idx_money_amount_variant_id ON money_amount (variant_id);
idx_money_amount_region_id ON money_amount (region_id);
idx_product_option_value_variant_id ON product_option_value (variant_id);
idx_product_option_value_option_id ON product_option_value (option_id);

idx_gin_product_title ON product USING gin (title gin_trgm_ops);
idx_gin_product_description ON product USING gin (description gin_trgm_ops);
idx_gin_product_variant_title ON product_variant USING gin (title gin_trgm_ops);
idx_gin_product_variant_sku ON product_variant USING gin (sku gin_trgm_ops);
idx_gin_product_collection ON product_collection USING gin (title gin_trgm_ops);

The packages class-validator and class-transformer have been removed from @medusajs/utils.

The TransactionBaseService has been removed from @medusajs/utils. This class should be imported from @medusajs/medusa.

The utilities build-query, db-aware-column, base-entity, and soft-deletable-entity have been removed from @medusajs/utils. These should be imported from @medusajs/medusa.

Support for SQLite dropped
SQLite support was initially added to reduce friction for developers trying Medusa for the first time. It runs on most operating systems without installation, allowing you to start a Medusa starter without preparing a Postgres database.

Though, as we've added features that use more advanced database concepts, we've seen that SQLite has started to cause more harm than good. And frankly, we've not prioritized maintaining the support, as removing it was always part of our plans. SQLite still allows developers to get started very quickly. However, as soon as you start using our admin system or set up the storefront starter, issues caused by the limitations of SQLite arise. These issues are primarily centered around transaction management. A concept used extensively in our core and poorly supported by SQLite.

Therefore, as of this release, SQLite is no longer supported. The pros simply do not outweigh the cons at this point.

What does this mean for your setup?

In the highly unlikely case that you are using SQLite, this will be a breaking change. So, you'll need to set up Postgres for your Medusa server as part of bumping to this version. You can find a guide in our documentation on how to do this.

If you are not using SQLite, these changes will not affect your setup.

Reservation management
With the introduction of our Inventory Module, we added the notion of reservations. Right now, reservations are, from a store administrator perspective, limited to order items and cannot really be used outside the context of an order - unless you consume the API directly.

In this release, we ship the first elements to more extensive reservation management, including an overview of all reservations and the ability to search and edit existing reservations. The feature is still WIP, so we will hide the UI behind a new feature flag, reservations, that you can enable as any other feature flag, if you want to start playing around with the feature now.

v1.11.0

16 May 09:19

Choose a tag to compare

Features

In 1.10.0, we changed the mechanism for loading relations in Typeorm from join to query, which meant that instead of firing one large query with joins, we fire separate queries for each requested relation. This was added to improve performance and eliminate an issue with heavy memory usage. Read more about it in the release notes for 1.10.0.

Unfortunately, we found the query strategy to come with unexpected issues related to database connection management. In short, it turned out the query strategy obtains a new database connection for each separate query – instead of reusing the already established connection – leading to a drained connection pool and eventually unresponsive applications.

To eliminate these issues (and potential future ones), we've decided to ditch the query strategy. Instead, we are bringing back our (own) custom query strategies for Carts, Products, and Orders to maintain highly performant APIs while mitigating the risk of unexpected memory and/or database connection problems.

This also means we'll be moving away from our Typeorm fork, as the fix related to the query strategy is now irrelevant. You should update your project to use the official Typeorm package.

In your package.json, replace our forked version with the latest from Typeorm:

"typeorm": "^0.3.16"

This is in addition to bumping all you Medusa-related packages to their latest versions.

Breaking changes

Performance improvements
To improve performance of Cart and Product retrieval, we've changed the relationLoadStrategy in Typeorm from join to query. This means relations are loaded using separate database queries rather than many joins in a single large query. This change also significantly reduces memory usage, as it will produce a much smaller result.

Unfortunately, Typeorm's query-strategy does not work well in concert with transactions, which is extensively used across our codebase. The separate queries to fetch relations on entities will run outside of an initiated transaction, because it uses a different query runner. This leads to incorrect results in cases where you request entities previously created in an ongoing transaction. Those changes will not have persisted to the database at the time of querying, and will therefore be "invisible" to other query runners.

Instead of compromising on the performance of our API, we decided to fix the issue in Typeorm, which can be found in this PR. It is still yet to be merged, so for now, we have published a forked version of Typeorm that includes the fix. This is the breaking change of this release.

To make sure your project works as expected, you will need to use our forked version in your project until Typeorm accepts our PR and publishes a new version.

In your package.json, replace the Typeorm version with the following:

"typeorm": "npm:@medusajs/typeorm@next"

Features

Listing products
In #4010, we've introduced checks in our Product API ensuring that product pricing and availability are only set if they are requested.

The impacted endpoints are:

GET /store/products
GET /store/products/:id

GET /admin/products
GET /admin/products/:id

By default, these properties will be set on the product and product variants, but if you specify the expand query param on your request, you might not receive product pricing and availability. To include those, add variants and variant prices to the expand. It will look like this:

GET /store/products?expand="variants,variants.prices"

Bugs

Event Bus
In v1.9.0, we changed the events system to only fire an event if it had any subscribers. This spawned a bug around wildcard subscribers that we missed in our testing. Wildcard subscribers are supposed to run on all events and are created like so:

eventBusService.subscribe("*", someMethodToHandleEvent)

To make up for this mistake, we've rolled back the changes introduced in 1.9.0 and will go back to the drawing board at some point in the future.
