Push your new version to production

Forest Admin is using the file that is present beside your agent to reflect your model definition as well as the agent version.

When upgrading your agent version, it will only be taken into account if the .forestadmin-schema.json with the latest version has been pushed.

Recommended procedure

At Forest Admin, we advise you to start your migration in your development environment:

  1. Upgrade your agent in development following the upgrade notes

  2. Start the agent locally

  3. You should notice that your .forestadmin-schema.json has been updated

  4. Commit your source code, dependency manager file as well as the .forestadmin-schema.json file

  5. Push your commit to Production/Staging/Test

  6. Pull code in your server; install, build and restart

Upgrade without development environment (Not recommended)

If you only have one single remote environment and not bothered by the possibility that it can remain down for a period of time you can upgrade your agent version directly on it.

  1. Upgrade the agent following the migration notes

  2. Set your NODE_ENV or FOREST_ENVIRONMENT to dev

  3. Restart with this new configuration, it should update the content of .forestadmin-schema.json

  4. Once you have confirmed that the file has been updated and sent to Forest Admin servers, you can restore your environment variables and restart the server
