I noticed a few issues when running e2e tests that will be resolved by
this PR:
- Most important: for some test suites (fields, fields-relationship,
versions, queues, lexical), the database was cleared and seeded
**twice** in between each test run. This is because the onInit function
was running the clear and seed script, when it should only have been
running the seed script. Clearing the database / the snapshot workflow
is being done by the reInit endpoint, which then calls onInit to seed
the actual data.
- The slowest part of `clearAndSeedEverything` is recreating indexes on
mongodb. This PR slightly improves performance here by:
- Skipping this process for the built-in `['payload-migrations',
'payload-preferences', 'payload-locked-documents']` collections
- Previously we were calling both `createIndexes` and `ensureIndexes`.
This was unnecessary - `ensureIndexes` is a deprecated alias of
`createIndexes`. This PR changes it to only call `createIndexes`
- Makes the reinit endpoint accept GET requests instead of POST requests
- this makes it easier to debug right in the browser
- Some typescript fixes
- Adds a `dev:memorydb` script to the package.json. For some reason,
`dev` is super unreliable on mongodb locally when running e2e tests - it
frequently fails during index creation. Using the memorydb fixes this
issue, with the bonus of more closely resembling the CI environment
- Previously, you were unable to run test suites using turbopack +
postgres. This fixes it, by explicitly installing `pg` as devDependency
in our monorepo
- Fixes jest open handles warning
### What?
1. Adds logic to automatically update the `importMap.js` file with the
project name provided by the user.
2. Adds an updated version of the `README.md` file that we had when this
template existed outside of the monorepo
([here](https://github.com/payloadcms/plugin-template/blob/main/README.md))
to provide clear instructions of required steps.
### Why?
1. The plugin template when installed via `npx create-payload-app` asks
the user for a project name, however the exports from `importMap.js` do
not get updated to the provided name. This throws errors when running
the project and prevents it from building.
2. The `/dev` folder requires the `.env.example` to be copied and
renamed to `.env` - the project will not run until this is done. The
template lacks instructions that this is a required step.
### How?
1. Updates
`packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/configure-plugin-project.ts` to
read the `importMap.js` file and replace the placeholder plugin name
with the name provided by the users. Adds a test to
`packages/create-payload-app/src/lib/create-project.spec.ts` to verify
that this file gets updated correctly.
2. Adds instructions on using this template to the `README.md` file,
ensuring key steps (like adding the `.env` file) are clearly stated.
Additional housekeeping updates:
- Removed Jest and replaced it with Vitest for testing
- Updated the base test approach to use Vitest instead of Jest
- Removed `NextRESTClient` in favor of directly creating Request objects
- Abstracted `getCustomEndpointHandler` function
- Added ensureIndexes: true to the mongooseAdapter configuration
- Removed the custom server from the dev folder
- Updated the pnpm dev script to "dev": "next dev dev --turbo"
- Removed `admin.autoLogin`
Fixes#12198
- Fixes issues with using pnpm v10 in some templates by allowing `^10`
in engines as well
- Added logging to the template generation script so we can debug the
latest version being pulled by CI
**BREAKING CHANGE:**
This bumps the **minimum required Next.js** version from 15.0.0 to
15.2.3. This update is necessary due to a critical security
vulnerability found in earlier Next.js versions, which requires an
exception to our standard semantic versioning process.
Additionally, this bumps all templates to the latest Next.js and Payload
versions.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/10813
In pnpm 10 (which isn't "latest" yet), according to the [list of
breaking changes](https://github.com/orgs/pnpm/discussions/8945):
> Lifecycle scripts of dependencies are not executed during installation
by default! This is a breaking change aimed at increasing security. In
order to allow lifecycle scripts of specific dependencies, they should
be listed in the pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies field of package.json
The sharp package uses a script to install native binaries and so our
templates don't run out of the box with pnpm 10.
Bumps the following dependencies:
- next
- typescript
- http-status
- nodemailer
- Payload & next versions in all templates
- Monorepo only: playwright and dotenv
Removes unused dependencies:
- ts-jest
- jest-environment-jsdom
- resend (we don't use their sdk, we only use their rest API)
### What?
Uses `cross-env` for the `dev:payload` script in the plugin template.
### Why?
To achieve compatibility with Windows.
### How?
Adds `cross-env` as a dev dependency and modifies the `dev:payload`
script.
Separates `exports`, `main`, `types` for publish / dev with
`publishConfig` for the plugin template. Previously, you needed a `dist`
folder to run payload bin scripts.
Updates the plugin template and adds it to the monorepo
Includes:
* Integration testing setup
* Adding custom client / server components via a plugin
* The same building setup that we use for our plugins in the monorepo
* `create-payload-app` dynamically configures the project based on the
name:`dev/tsconfig.json`, `src/index.ts`, `dev/payload.config.ts`
For example, from project name: `payload-plugin-cool`
`src/index.ts`:
```ts
export type PayloadPluginCoolConfig = {
/**
* List of collections to add a custom field
*/
collections?: Partial<Record<CollectionSlug, true>>
disabled?: boolean
}
export const payloadPluginCool =
(pluginOptions: PayloadPluginCoolConfig) =>
/// ...
```
`dev/tsconfig.json`:
```json
{
"extends": "../tsconfig.json",
"exclude": [],
"include": [
"**/*.ts",
"**/*.tsx",
"../src/**/*.ts",
"../src/**/*.tsx",
"next.config.mjs",
".next/types/**/*.ts"
],
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./",
"paths": {
"@payload-config": [
"./payload.config.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool": [
"../src/index.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/client": [
"../src/exports/client.ts"
],
"payload-plugin-cool/rsc": [
"../src/exports/rsc.ts"
]
},
"noEmit": true
}
}
```
`./dev/payload.config.ts`
```
import { payloadPluginCool } from 'payload-plugin-cool'
///
plugins: [
payloadPluginCool({
collections: {
posts: true,
},
}),
],
```
