Directus V9.0 has just been released

[markjames]

Hi Guys,
It looks like Directus has finally been released as stable.

Is this something we can look to add to the official cloudron release?

@atridad has a custom app built on the release candidates that I assume would be a good starting point for this?

A follow on question for me would be, is there a way to migrate the directus custom app data on my cloudron instance into the official release app once it drops?

Thanks
Mark

Great news, looking forward to have it in the store.

I took a quick look into updating the package, it turns out they have rewritten everything from php to nodejs now. Generally this is good, but will essentially require a whole new package. @atridad you have a custom build for this we can take as reference?

@nebulon This is the link I know of:

https://git.atridad.dev/CTPR/cloudron-directus9-app

Note that they are also working on porting the node version to PHP (Laravel), which is on their roadmap for Q4 next year.

I am confused. The project was in PHP to start with. They rewrote it entirely to node.js only to rewrite it again into PHP?

Per https://github.com/directus/directus/discussions/4407, the laravel one would be some community project whereas the node.js will be the real deal.

I have pushed a new package which is Directus 9 - https://www.cloudron.io/store/io.directus9.cloudronapp.html. The old package is now hidden in the appstore.

To migrate from 8 to 9, please follow https://docs.directus.io/configuration/upgrades-migrations/#manual-database-export-import . I have not tried the migration, so if you have any notes, feel free to leave them here.

@girish Is there an easy way to migrate from a Directus built from @atridad repo to the one in the appstore?

[girish]

@ruihildt from what I can tell there is no import/export in directus. So, I think db export/import is the way to go.
