v2.3 Changes
June 24, 2021Highlights
โก๏ธ Node.js update to 14.17.1 from 12.22.1 ๐
โก๏ธ Typescript update to 4.3.2
๐ Packages had their backward compatibility to before Meteor 1.0 removed. See below for more details.
๐ Improved tracking of which files are used by build plugins to know when it should do a full rebuild, a faster client-only rebuild, or can completely skip rebuilding after a file is modified. This should work with any type of file in any directory, and for both files in the app and files in packages. The most noticeable improvement is when modifying a file only used on the client Meteor will only rebuild the client, even if the file is not inside
imports
or aclient
folder.
Summary of breaking changes
โฌ๏ธ As Node.js version was upgraded to a new major version we recommend that you review if your npm dependencies are compatible with Node.js 14.
- If we receive reports from breaking changes we are going to list them here but so far we are not aware of any.
- We recommend that you read Node.js release notes though.
๐ Accounts have undergone some major changes including major version bump. See below for more details.
โก๏ธ All official packages that have been deprecated have now the deprecated flag and will inform you about that if you install or update them.
If you are working with enrollments in user accounts, do note that the enrollment token handling is now separate from reset password token. The token is now under
services.password.enroll
, so adjust your code accordingly if you use it.
Migration steps
As Node.js version was upgraded we recommend that you remove your
node_modules
folder (rm -rf node_modules
) and runmeteor npm i
to be sure you compile all the binary dependencies again using the new Node.js version.- Maybe you also want to recreate your lock file.
- If you get an error try
meteor reset
which will clear caches, beware that this will also remove your local DB for your app.
๐ฆ If you are maintaining a package that depends on one of the accounts packages which had a major version bump you will either need to set the new version manually or set
api.versionsFrom('2.3')
. You can also have it reference its current version and 2.3 like this:api.versionsFrom(['1.12', '2.3'])
, for specific package it can be like this:api.use('[email protected] || 2.0.0')
.๐ฆ Old API for packages definitions has been removed. The old underscore method names (e.g.
api.add_files()
) will no longer work, please use the camel case method names (e.g.api.addFiles()
).

METEOR_TOOL_ENABLE_REIFY_RUNTIME_CACHE
andMETEOR_REIFY_CACHE_DIR
environment variables to adjust it or turn it on for production read more in the PR. - New flag
--platforms
has been added to thebuild
command to specify the platform you want to build for.meteor build . --platforms=android
. This is useful for example when you are not using a MacOS and you want to build your app only for Android. Also to save time on CI not building all the platforms all the time. See PR for details. - The undocumented environment variable
DDP_DEFAULT_CONNECTION_URL
behavior has changed. SettingDDP_DEFAULT_CONNECTION_URL
when running the server (development:meteor run
or production:node main.js
) sets the default DDP server value for meteor. But this did not work forcordova
apps. Now you can define thecordova
app default DDP server value by settingDDP_DEFAULT_CONNECTION_URL
when building (meteor build
). - Skeletons dependencies updated to latest version
- Svelte skeleton now has HMR

--build-only
. Helpful if you want to build first and after some validations proceeding with the upload and deploy. Read more - Improved watched system to properly rebuild
