Upgrading

No need to run "update.php" or any other migration scripts.

Get the new version via Composer:

  • Step 1: if you are upgrading from SMW older than 4.0.0, ensure the SMW version in composer.json is ^4.1.3
  • Step 2: run composer in your MediaWiki directory: composer update --no-dev --optimize-autoloader

Get the new version via Git:

This is only for those that have installed SMW via Git.

  • Step 1: do a git pull in the SemanticMediaWiki directory
  • Step 2: run composer update --no-dev --optimize-autoloader in the MediaWiki directory

Upgrading Elasticsearch:

This version of SMW uses Elasticsearch 7.10.2 (if you have enabled it). If you are using Elasticsearch as a backend, then you need to perform the following changes:

  • Step 1: Upgrade your version of Elasticsearch to 7.10.2 (if you are using docker that should work without any other action than changing the version number)
  • Step 2: Make sure your version of the elasticsearch package is right, you might want to add it to the composer.local.json: COMPOSER=composer.local.json composer require elasticsearch/elasticsearch "7.17.2"
  • Step 3: Add $smwgElasticsearchCredentials after $smwgElasticsearchEndpoints:

``` $smwgElasticsearchEndpoints = [ [ 'host' => $elasticSearchHost, 'port' => 9200, 'scheme' => 'http' ] ];

$smwgElasticsearchCredentials = [ 'user' => $elasticuser, 'pass' => $elasticpassword, ]; ```

The parser function was called multiple times but with a different language code ("en") which is to be avoided as content of a page is generally expected to be represented by a single language.
