Upgrading to Mixpost Enterprise from Pro

This guide ensures a smooth upgrade from the Pro to the Enterprise package, allowing you to fully benefit from the enhanced features of Mixpost Enterprise.

Backup database

Sometimes the upgrade can go wrong, so we recommend that you backup your database before starting the upgrade.

Upgrade to Enterprsie Using Docker​

Upgrading to Mixpost Enterprise from Pro using Docker is straightforward. Ensure that you preserve the mounted volume during the process. Simply follow these steps:

  1. Open the folder that contains your docker-compose.yml file.
  2. In the docker-compose.yml file, replace the image inovector/mixpost-pro-team:latest with inovector/mixpost-enterprise:latest.

Then run:

# Pull the latest version
docker compose pull 

# Stop and remove the old container 
docker compose down

# Start a new container
docker compose up -d
info

If something goes wrong, you can use the inovector/mixpost-pro-team:latest tag to revert. Also, you need to restore your database backup.

Upgrade to Enterprise in a PHP Environment​

This method applies if you have installed Mixpost Pro manually or within an existing Laravel application.

1. Delete the Pro package​

composer remove inovector/mixpost-pro-team

May appear some error after removing. No need to do anything, just skip it.

2. Install the Enterprise package​

composer require inovector/mixpost-enterprise "^4.0" --with-all-dependencies

After installing the Mixpos Enterprise package, you may execute:

php artisan mixpost-enterprise:install

At the question Would you like to run the migrations now? (yes/no) answer with yes.

Next, it will ask you to create an admin user. If you already have one, you can cancel cancel the command.

To ensure that the assets get republished each time Mixpost Enterprise is updated, we strongly advise you to add the following command to the post-update-cmd of the scripts section of your composer.json.

"scripts": {
    "post-update-cmd": [
        # ...
        "@php artisan mixpost-enterprise:publish-assets --force=true"
    ]
}

4. CSRF Protection​

Exclude payment webhook handler route From CSRF protection by adding the URI */payment-webhook to the $except property of the VerifyCsrfToken middleware:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken as Middleware;

class VerifyCsrfToken extends Middleware
{
    /**
     * The URIs that should be excluded from CSRF verification.
     *
     * @var array<int, string>
     */
    protected $except = [
        '*/payment-webhook'
    ];
}

5. Modify the schedule command​

In the console kernel app/Console/Kernel.php, you should remove \Inovector\Mixpost\Schedule::register($schedule) and add \Inovector\MixpostEnterprise\Schedule::register($schedule).

protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
        // Remove or comment this command
        # \Inovector\Mixpost\Schedule::register($schedule);
     
 		// Insert new command
     	\Inovector\MixpostEnterprise\Schedule::register($schedule);

        $schedule->command('horizon:snapshot')->everyFiveMinutes();
        $schedule->command('queue:prune-batches')->daily();
}

6. Clear the cache​

php artisan route:clear
php artisan view:clear
php artisan mixpost:clear-services-cache
php artisan mixpost:clear-settings-cache

7. Optimize application​

php artisan optimize

8. Terminate the Horizon process​

php artisan horizon:terminate
