 | |
| :::
 | |
| 
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Getting started
 | |
| 
 | |
| Install Strapi `alpha.8` globally on your computer. To do so run `npm install strapi@3.0.0-alpha.8 -g`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| When it's done, generate a new empty project `strapi new myNewProject` (don't pay attention to the database configuration).
 | |
| 
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Configurations
 | |
| 
 | |
| You will have to update just 1 file: `package.json`
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Edit the scripts section: (only the `setup` line has changed)
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```json
 | |
| {
 | |
|   "scripts": {
 | |
|     "setup": "cd admin && npm run setup",
 | |
|     "start": "node server.js",
 | |
|     "strapi": "node_modules/strapi/bin/strapi.js",
 | |
|     "lint": "node_modules/.bin/eslint api/**/*.js config/**/*.js plugins/**/*.js",
 | |
|     "postinstall": "node node_modules/strapi/lib/utils/post-install.js"
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Edit the Strapi's dependencies version: (move Strapi's dependencies to `3.0.0-alpha.8` version)
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```json
 | |
| {
 | |
|   "dependencies": {
 | |
|     "lodash": "4.x.x",
 | |
|     "strapi": "3.0.0-alpha.8",
 | |
|     "strapi-mongoose": "3.0.0-alpha.8"
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Update the Admin
 | |
| 
 | |
| Delete your old admin folder and replace by the new one.
 | |
| 
 | |
| <br>
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Update the Plugins
 | |
| 
 | |
| Copy these 3 files `/plugins/users-permissions/config/jwt.json`, `/plugins/users-permissions/config/roles.json` and `/plugins/users-permissions/models/User.settings.json` **from your old project** and paste them in the corresponding ones in your new project. It is important to save these files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then, delete your old `plugins` folder and replace it by the new one.
 | |
| 
 | |
| That's all, you have now upgraded to Strapi `alpha.8`.
