Upgrading to Dapr 0.6.0

If you're upgrading from an older version of Dapr to 0.6.0, follow the steps here to ensure a smooth upgrade. You know, the one where you don't get red errors on the terminal.. we all hate that, right?

Local Machine / Self-hosted

Uninstall Dapr using the CLI you currently have:

dapr uninstall --all

Next, get the latest CLI following these instructions, or alternatively download the latest and greatest release from here and put the dapr binary in your PATH.

Once you have downloaded the CLI, run:

dapr init

Wait for the update to finish, and you're good to go!
Make sure you have the right runtime version (0.6.0) with:

dapr --version

Kubernetes

For this release, its important you first remove your application from the cluster while Dapr is running, to remove the Kubernetes services for Dapr, and re-deploy after upgrading.

Beginning next release, Dapr will include zero-down upgrade instructions.

Download the latest CLI release as outlined above in the Local Machine / Self-hosted section.

If you previously installed Dapr on your Kubernetes cluster using the Dapr CLI, run:

dapr uninstall --kubernetes

It's fine to ignore any errors that might show up.

If you previously installed Dapr using Helm 2.X:

helm del --purge dapr

If you previously installed Dapr using Helm 3.X:

helm uninstall dapr -n dapr-system
helm repo update

Wait until Dapr is uninstalled, and make sure the dapr-system namespace is gone.

If you installed Dapr with Helm to a namespace other than dapr-system, modify the uninstall command above to account for that.

You can now follow these instructions on how to install Dapr using Helm 3.

Alternatively, if you want to install Dapr in a dev/test setup, run:

dapr init --kubernetes

Breaking Changes

Actor Healthz API

Language specific Actor SDKs must expose /healthz endpoint and return 200. All actors SDKs must be upgraded to the latest version.

Separated Dapr sidecar image

For this release, we split the Dapr runtime binary (daprd) from daprio/dapr image to reduce the size of sidecar image. You must confirm that you deploy Dapr to Kubernetes cluster using the latest 0.6.0 Dapr cli or helm chart.

dapr-operator.yaml location change for dapr init --kubernetes

dapr init --kubernetes installs Dapr using dapr-operator.yaml deployment yaml. This release has changed the location of this yaml to GitHub Release asset. You must use the latest CLI. Otherwise, old Dapr CLI will be unable to install the latest Dapr to your Kubernetes cluster.
