- we changed `LoginForm` and `SignupForm` to use a named export instead of a default export, this means you must use them like this:
-`import { LoginForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/Login'`
-`import { SignupForm } from '@wasp/auth/Signup'`
- we renamed `useAuth.js` to `useAuth.ts` and you should import it like this: `import useAuth from '@wasp/auth/useAuth'` (without the `.js` extension)
### Adds support for e-mail authentication
You can now use e-mail authentication in your Wasp app! This means that users can sign up and log in using their e-mail address. You get e-mail verification and password reset out of the box.
```c
app MyApp {
// ...
auth: {
// ...
email: {
fromField: {
name: "ToDO App",
email: "mihovil@ilakovac.com"
},
emailVerification: {
allowUnverifiedLogin: false,
getEmailContentFn: import { getVerificationEmailContent } from "@server/auth/email.js",
clientRoute: EmailVerificationRoute,
},
passwordReset: {
getEmailContentFn: import { getPasswordResetEmailContent } from "@server/auth/email.js",
clientRoute: PasswordResetRoute
},
},
}
}
```
You can only use one of e-mail or username & password authentication in your app. You can't use both at the same time.
### Adds Auth UI components
Wasp now provides a set of UI components for authentication. You can use them to quickly build a login and signup page for your app. The UI changes dynamically based on your Wasp config.
We provide `LoginForm`, `SignupForm`, `ForgotPassworForm`, `ResetPasswordForm` and`VerifyEmailForm` components. You can import them from `@wasp/auth/forms` like:
```js
import { LoginForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/Login'
import { SignupForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/Signup'
import { ForgotPasswordForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/ForgotPassword'
import { ResetPasswordForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/ResetPassword'
import { VerifyEmailForm } from '@wasp/auth/forms/VerifyEmail'
### Adds an `api` keyword for defining an arbitrary endpoint and URL
Need a specific endpoint, like `/healthcheck` or `/foo/callback`? Or need complete control of the response? Use an `api` to define one by tying a JS function to any HTTP method and path! For example:
Wasp now supports sending e-mails! You can use the `emailSender` app property to configure the e-mail provider and optionally the `defaultFrom` address. Then, you can use the `send` function in your backend code to send e-mails.
```ts
// main.wasp
app MyApp {
emailSender: {
provider: SendGrid,
defaultFrom: {
name: "My App",
email: "myapp@domain.com"
},
},
}
// server/actions.ts
import { emailSender } from '@wasp/email/index.js'
### `wasp start db` -> Wasp can now run your dev database for you with a single command
Moving from SQLite to PostgreSQL with Wasp can feel like increase in complexity, because suddenly you have to care about running your PostgreSQL database, providing connection URL for it via env var, and if you checkout somebody's else Wasp project, or your old Wasp project that you have no memory of any more, you also have to figure all that out.
To help with that, we now added `wasp start db`, which runs a development database for you!
That it, all you need to do is run `wasp start db` and you are good to go. No env var setting, no remembering how to run the db.
### `wasp test client` -> Wasp can now test your web app code
By leveraging Vitest and some supporting libraries, Wasp now makes it super easy to add unit tests and React component tests to your frontend codebase.
- Starts the process of removing the coupling between `usernameAndPassword` and social logins. Now, your `userEntity` no longer requires a `username` or `password` field if you only want to use Google/GitHub for auth.
- All client files which use `JSX` need to have either the `.jsx` or the `.tsx` extension. This is because we now use `Vite` under the hood instead of `Create React App`, and `Vite` requires these extensions to be present to process `JSX`` properly.
- The Tailwind and PostCSS config files need to have the `.cjs` extension. These config files are CommonJS modules, and with `Vite` we are using ES modules by default.
### Wasp now uses Vite instead of Create React App
We moved away from using Create React App for the client app. This means that dev startup time will be much faster and we are following the latest best practices for building web apps with React.
Wasp now passes in a context to the server `setupFn` that contains Express `app` and http `server` objects. This can be used as an escape hatch for things like custom routes or WebSocket support.
- The Dockerfile has been updated to build the server files during the Docker build stage instead of during server startup. This will reduce the memory footprint required for running apps.
### Support for defining the web app's root component
You can now define a root component for your client app. This is useful if you want to wrap your app in a provider or have a common layout. You can define it in `app.client.rootComponent` in your `.wasp` file.
We have made it much easier to deploy your Wasp apps via a new CLI command, `wasp deploy`. 🚀 This release adds support for Fly.io, but we hope to add more hosting providers soon!
We are removing the requirement for a specific npm version to enable following the Node.js LTS releases (Node.js LTS releases sometimes bump the major `npm` version).
We are still requiring Node.js to be version 18, but the `npm` version can be anything and for most of Wasp users it will be the version that comes with Node.js.
- Social auth had several breaking changes as we added a new provider (GitHub).
- Buttons and sign in URLs now have a different, standardized import name for each provider.
- Google exe: `import { SignInButton as GoogleSignInButton, signInUrl, logoUrl } from '@wasp/auth/buttons/Google'`
- Buttons themselves have been restyled to make them more uniform, and no longer take an optional `height` parameter.
- Social config object now use a `clientID` property instead of `clientId`.
### GitHub added as a social login
We have added GitHub as another social login option. It is as easy to use as Google, and only requires adding `gitHub` to your `app.auth.methods` plus two environment variables (`GITHUB_CLIENT_ID` and `GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET`)! Check out the docs for more.
- The CLI command for applying a migration with a name has changed from `wasp db migrate-dev foo` to `wasp db migrate-dev --name foo`. This allowed us to add more flags, like `--create-only`.
- Again fixed Dockerfile generated with `wasp build` (after fixing it only half-way last time :facepalm) -> Prisma would break due to unsupported version of openssl.
- Updates Create React App from version 4.0.3 to 5.0.1. This brings many improvements as well as downstream library updates. It also has a list of possible breaking changes: https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
- Updates Prisma from version 3.15.2 to 4.5.0. Please check out their upgrade guide: https://www.prisma.io/docs/guides/upgrade-guides/upgrading-versions/upgrading-to-prisma-4 and release notes: https://github.com/prisma/prisma/releases for any possible breaking changes.
- Updates required Node LTS version from version 16 to version 18. This Node ecosystem change happened on 2022-10-25: https://github.com/nodejs/Release
You can now customize the default Wasp Dockerfile by either extending/replacing our build stages or using your own custom logic. To make use of this feature, simply add a Dockerfile to the root of your project and it will be appended to the bottom of the existing Wasp Dockerfile.
- The `EmailAndPassword` auth method has been renamed `usernameAndPassword` to better reflect the current usage. Email validation will be addressed in the future.
-- Drop the old index (NOTE: name may vary based on Prisma version)
DROP INDEX "User_email_key";
-- Alter the table to rename the column, thus preserving the data
ALTER TABLE "User"
RENAME COLUMN "email" TO "username";
-- Create a new index
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "User_username_key" ON "User"("username");
```
- NOTE: If you simply changed `email` to `username` in your .wasp file, Prisma will try to drop the table and recreate it, which is likely not what you want if you have data you want to preserve.
- If you would like to add a new `username` column and keep `email` as is, be sure to add a calculated value in the migration (perhaps a random string, or something based on the `email`). The `username` column should remain `NOT NULL` and `UNIQUE`.
-`WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL` is now a required environment variable to improve CORS security. It is set by default in development. In production, this should point to the URL where your frontend app is being hosted.
- The generated Dockerfile has been updated from `node:14-alpine` to `node:16-alpine`.
- Wasp Jobs callback function arguments have been updated to the following: `async function jobHandler(args, context)`. Jobs can now make use of entities, accessed via `context`, like Operations. Additionally, the data passed into the Job handler function are no longer wrapped in a `data` property, and are now instead accessed exactly as they are supplied via `args`.
### [NEW FEATURE] Google is now a supported authentication method!
You can now offer your users the ability to sign in with Google! Enabling it is just a few lines and offers a fast, easy, and secure way to get users into your app! We also have a comprehensive setup guide for creating a new app in the Google Developer Console.
Stay tuned, as more external auth methods will be added in the future. Let us know what you'd like to see support for next!
Now, your installation of Wasp also brings Wasp language server with it! This means live error reporting in Wasp files in supported IDEs (currently only VSCode).
Make sure to update your Wasp VSCode extension to get the benefits of Wasp Language Server.
### [NEW FEATURE] Optimistic updates via useAction hook
We added `useAction` hook to our JS API, which allows you to specify optimistic update details for an Action.
This means that, if you have a good idea of how an Action will affect the state on the client, you can perform those changes immediatelly upon its call (instead of waiting for Action to finish), by modifying what specific Queries currently return.
Once Action is actually done, related Queries will be unvalidated as usual and therefore fetch the real result, but in the meantime the changes you specified via optimistic updates will be visible.
This is great for apps where there is a lot of interactivity and you want the UI to update instantly with your changes, even as they are still being saved to the server.
Check out https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/language/features#the-useaction-hook for more details.
- Works around a `sodium-native` bug (used by a Wasp dependency, `secure-password`) that caused signup/login runtime issues with Heroku deployments by downgrading it from v3.4.1 to v3.3.0 via a `package.json` override. Ref: https://github.com/sodium-friends/sodium-native/issues/160
Among various other things, this brins support for OpenSSL3. So if you couldn't run Wasp on your operating system due to Prisma not supporting OpenSSL3, those days are over!
### [NEW FEATURE] Wasp now has support for running Jobs!
If you have server tasks that you do not want to handle as part of the normal request-response cycle, now Wasp allows you to make that function a Job and it will gain some "superpowers"!
Jobs will persist between server restarts, can be retried if they fail, and they can even be delayed until the future (or have a recurring schedule)!
Some examples where you may want to use a Job on the server include sending an email, making an HTTP request to some external API, or doing some nightly calculations.
To run Jobs, you don't need any additional infrastructure at the moment, just a Postgre database that you anyway need to deploy Wasp to production.
### BREAKING CHANGES
- Wasp now requires latest LTS version of NodeJS
- We had a bit of issues with being too relaxed on the version of NodeJS that can be used with Wasp so we thightened it up a bit.
We also added a more thorough check in Wasp for it, that will warn you very explicitely if you are using the wrong version of Node.
- Updated react-query to v3
- This brings some new features from react query while also laying the foundation for the further features we are building on top of it in Wasp (coming soon!).
- Updated python to python3 in Dockerfile generated upon `wasp build`.
### Various improvements
- Finally fixed a bug with orphaned processes in development.
- Various other bug fixes, doc improvements, and refactorings.
### [BREAKING CHANGE] Upgrading Prisma to version 3.9.1
We are happy to announce Wasp is now using a much newer version of Prisma! This change does not impact the Wasp DSL support for Prisma, but it does come with some caveats from Prisma based on your usage. Please see this note for any breaking changes: https://www.prisma.io/docs/guides/upgrade-guides/upgrading-versions/upgrading-to-prisma-3
*Note: When you first migrate after upgrading, you will likely see a new migration created for 3.x specific features related to updating foreign keys and indexes.*
### Various improvements
- Automatically regenerating your Prisma client, as needed, based on your Prisma schema changes.
- Tracking your NPM project dependency changes and automatically invoking `npm install`, as needed, so you are always up to date.
