Upgrade packages

The "upgrade packages" patch will update official AdonisJS packages, remove the deprecated one's and install the new one's.

npx @adonisjs/upgrade-kit@latest upgrade-packages

pnpm dlx @adonisjs/upgrade-kit@latest upgrade-packages

Following are the steps performed by this patch.

Packages upgraded

Every @adonisjs and @japa packages will be upgraded to the latest version.
pino-pretty

Packages removed

@adonisjs/repl - The REPL source code has been merged with the AdonisJS core. Therefore the package is no longer required.
source-map-support - No longer need external packages for source maps. Node.js supports source maps as first class citizen now.

Packages swapped

@adonisjs/view swapped with edge.js. The @adonisjs/view package was a wrapper on top of edge.js. We decided to directly use the edge.js package.
phc-argon2 swapped with argon2. The phc-argon2 was a wrapper on top of argon2. We decided to no longer use the wrapper and rely on the base implementation directly.
phc-bcrypt swapped with bcrypt. The phc-bcrypt was a wrapper on top of bcrypt. We decided to no longer use the wrapper and rely on the base implementation directly.
@japa/preset-adonis is swapped with @japa/plugin-adonisjs.
adonis-preset-ts - The base configuration for TypeScript has been moved to @adonisjs/tsconfig package. Also, we will install ts-node, @swc/core packages to run TypeScript code without compiling it during development.

Packages installed

@types/node to have types for Node.js.
@adonisjs/validator - The validator module from v5 is in legacy mode and we recommend using VineJS for new apps. However, for smoother upgrade experience, we install the @adonisjs/validator package, which brings the v5 validation module to v6 apps.
@adonisjs/cors - The CORS source code has been moved to its own package. The patch will install and configure this package if there is an config/cors.ts file.
@adonisjs/static - The source code to serve static files has been moved to its own package. The patch will install and configure this package if there is a config/static.ts file.

Providers updated

Since AdonisJS packages exports Service providers, this patch will also update the .adonisrc.json file to use the new providers imports.

- "@adonisjs/core"
+ "@adonisjs/core/providers/app_provider"
+ "@adonisjs/core/providers/hash_provider"

- "@adonisjs/session"
+ "@adonisjs/session/session_provider"

- "@adonisjs/view"
+ "@adonisjs/core/providers/edge_provider"

- "@adonisjs/shield"
+ "@adonisjs/shield/shield_provider"

- "@adonisjs/lucid"
+ "@adonisjs/lucid/database_provider"

- "@adonisjs/redis"
+ "@adonisjs/redis/redis_provider"

- "@adonisjs/mail"
+ "@adonisjs/mail/mail_provider"

- "@adonisjs/ally"
+ "@adonisjs/ally/ally_provider"

- "@adonisjs/auth"
+ "@adonisjs/auth/auth_provider"

- "@adonisjs/repl"
+ {
+   "file": "@adonisjs/core/providers/repl_provider",
+   "environments": ["repl", "test"]
+ }

- "@japa/preset-adonis/TestsProvider"

The aceProviders and testProviders have been removed. You can now register providers within the providers array and define the environment in which they should be imported.

Commands updated

Since AdonisJS packages exports Ace commands, this patch will also update the .adonisrc.json file to use the new commands imports.

- "@adonisjs/repl/build/commands"

- "@adonisjs/lucid/build/commands"
+ "@adonisjs/lucid/commands"

In v6, there is no need to explicitly register commands part of your application codebase. They will be scanned automatically from the ./commands directory. Also, we will delete the ./commands/index.ts file as it is no longer needed.
