In our 5.0 Announcement we promised extended support for 4.12 LTS beyond just bug fixes.
This support extends beyond simple bug-fixes. If minor enhancements can be made to better support new presentation class implementations that support the 4.x series we will willingly accept them. Our goal is simple: we want no one left behind.
To this end, here are the changes we currently plan to make for 4.12 to ensure our users can both upgrade to 4.12 from 4.6 and 4.11 more seamlessly and to provide additional tools for users on 4.12 to begin shifting to the RequestManager paradigm as early as possible for their app.
The first LTS release of @ember-data/rest and @ember-data/active-record will have their peer-dependency supported versions set to include ~4.12.3 of @ember-data/store.
@ember-data/request-utils has no dependencies or peer-dependencies on other EmberData packages, and thus can be used with any version immediately. However, when using it with 4.12 we suggest pinning to a 5.x LTS version once it is available.
@ember-data/json-api/request will be backported
we are unsure we will be able to backport support for serializePatch or the new cache relationships diffing APIs. More likely than not these will not be backported. If any portion of them is, they are likely to operate somewhat differently due to a different underlying graph implementation.
we may investigate whether @ember-data/json-api and @ember-data/graph could have their peer-dependencies loosened to allow 4.x store as an alternative path to support diffing. Many apps may find this a feasible approach as the deprecations that affect them in 4.x were relatively minor. Similarly 4.12 packages would have theirs loosened to allow their 5.x counterparts.
Improvements to the CacheHandler made in 5.x leading up to the first 5.x LTS will be backported. We anticipate this part being relatively straightforward.
4.12 LTS will have its peer-deps loosened to allow @ember-data/request 5.x.
We've seen that the small amount of runloop usage remaining in EmberData can cause unintended timing issues with interleaved renders when attempting to upgrade to 4.12. We're going to attempt to backport the work that fully removed this from EmberData. That work was primarily changes to the test suite.
We suggest 4.12 applications experiment with removing the behavior of RSVP Promises flushing in Ember's runloop. This may cause subtle timing issues in tests that make some tests appear to newly leak (in reality if this happens those tests already leaked but the leak was resolved before the afterEach began destroying the test container), but should be safe for application code in production.
To experiment with this fix, add the following to your app.js
import RSVP from 'rsvp';
// fix RSVP
RSVP.configure('async', (callback, arg) => queueMicrotask(() => callback(arg)));This change will make RSVP promises behave almost identically to real promises. The reason this could help is because we have noticed that many of the most difficult aspects of upgrading to 4.12 and beyond were due to accidental interleaved renders. RSVP Promises without this fix are one source of such renders.
We are in the early phases of building the replacement for @ember-data/model. As we've said before, we believe this replacement will provide an improved migration path from 4.12 to 5.x for many applications. We also believe it will replace the need for ModelFragments entirely for those users.
A few of the things we're currently working on to support this migration path:
You can use the v4-to-v5 label to see a full list of the things we're currently tracking to help with the v4 to v5 migration.
If your app is currently stuck on a 4.x version of EmberData for reasons beyond needing to resolve deprecations or usage of ModelFragments (we're coming for you still), we'd like to hear from you!
For those users we see still downloading 3.x versions, we'd like to hear more about where you got stuck as well. Was it a particular deprecation in EmberData? In ember-source? Please open a ticket with EmberData or start a discussion in the #ember-data channel on Discord to discuss.
