We are currently running WebAPI / Atlas 2.10.1. My developers tell me we need a newer version. What is the latest stable version (or ones to use) of WebAPI, Atlas and Achilles ?
How does one upgrade from 2.10.1 to the newer versions ?
Is it a new re-install, or is there an upgrade path that is different ?
Is v2.11.1 the correct version of WebAPI and/or Atlas to build from at this point ?
Yes, 2.11.1 is the latest version of Atlas/WebAPI.
For Atlas, you can simply replace your wwwroot with the contents of Atlas repo, execute npm install to fetch the javascript dependencies, and to a hard-cache reload in your browser to get the latest code.
For WebAPI, you rebuild the WebAPI.war and deploy it to your Java servlet engine (ie: Tomcat), and when the application starts, it will automatically migrate any WebAPI database changes that are needed for the new release. Note: it’s always wise to make a backup of your WebAPI database before deploy in case you want to revert to a prior version due to some unforeseen issue.
