Hi! I’m trying to migrate my app from V1 to V7 and i want to know if you can give me some tips to do it. I found gides to migrate V1 to V2 and more, but i don’t know, what is the best way.
It’s possible jump from V1 to V7 or should i go step by step V1-V2, V2-V3 and so on?
Thanks!
You need to do step by step, but with such a radical change I advise you to rewrite the code.
Thank you very much!
Sweet baby Jesus. Yeah, what Snowbeat said. Depending on how you’ve built v1, you could port and test it component by component. Either way, it’s potentially a hearty migration.
I just did 5 to 7 and there were enough breaking changes that it took me well over a week to track through everything but it was still easier than starting from scratch.
I’d probably make a copy of the project, upgrade to 7, hit the obvious breaking changes (that you’ve found) then run it in a browser and fix all the javascript errors and see where you stand. That’s only about a day’s work.
