Upgrading Arches

  1. You must be upgraded to at least version 6.0 before proceeding.

  2. Be sure to backup your database before proceeding

  3. Upgrade to Arches 6.1.0

     pip install --upgrade arches

  4. Within your project with your Python 3 virtual environment activated:

     python manage.py migrate

  5. Important: If you are maintaining an Arches package, be sure to export your graphs and resource instance data before re-importing or reloading your package.

Upgrading an Arches project

  1. Update your CACHES setting. In your project's settings.py file add the following CACHE to your CACHES setting. Be sure to do this in your settings_local.py file if that is where you have your CACHES setting:

    "user_permission": {
    "BACKEND": "django.core.cache.backends.db.DatabaseCache",
    "LOCATION": "user_permission_cache",
},

    You can, of course, modify the BACKEND to use the caching backend of your choice.

  2. If you are using the DatabaseCache for "user_permission" cache BACKEND (default), run the following:

    python manage.py createcachetable

  3. In 6.1 the order of the AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS setting has changed slightly with the 'guardian.backends.ObjectPermissionBackend' moved to the end.
    In the unlikely case that you have overridden this setting in your project's settings.py or settings_local.py file, then you'll need to update this setting to reflect this change.

  4. Update your JavaScript dependencies

    Your project's package.json file looks something like this (Yours maybe different, but only arches and packages supporting project customizations will be listed in the dependencies):

    {
    "name": "myproject",
    "dependencies": {
        "arches": "archesproject/arches#stable/6.0.1",
    }
}

    Change the arches version number from to #stable/6.1.0
    Then cd to your project's package.json file directory and run: yarn install

    If your package.json does not have arches listed as a dependency, follow the instructions of step 1 here to update your package.json file. Be sure to use #stable/6.1.0 as the version number for arches when you update your package.json file.

    Once your package.json file is updated, run:

    yarn install

  5. Optionally add the following settings to your project (defaults will be used otherwise):

    ENABLE_USER_SIGNUP = True
# If True, allows for user self creation via the signup view. If False, users can only be created via the Django admin view.

    FORCE_USER_SIGNUP_EMAIL_AUTHENTICATION = True
# If True, users must authenticate their account via email to complete the account creation process.

    FILE_TYPE_CHECKING = False
# If True, only the file types listed in FILE_TYPES can be uploaded to Arches

    FILE_TYPES = ["bmp", "gif", "jpg", "jpeg", "pdf", "png", "psd", "rtf", "tif", "tiff", "xlsx", "csv", "zip"]
# File types that can be uploaded to Arches if FILE_TYPE_CHECKING is True.

  6. If you are running Arches on Apache, be sure to run:

    python manage.py collectstatic

    and restart your server.

    sudo service apache2 reload

  7. Finally, If you are running Celery, you should also restart your Celery worker(s). The process for doing this depends on how Celery is being run.
