Release notes
This is a
beta release for the next major version of Drupal
. Drupal 9 beta releases are intended for site owners and module or theme authors to test compatibility and upgrade paths for Drupal 9.0. Beta releases are not intended for production.
Refer to
How to prepare your Drupal 7 or 8 site for Drupal 9
for tools you can use to check the Drupal 9 compatibility of modules, themes, and sites. For more information on 9.0.x development, see
#3007300: [META] Release Drupal 9 on June 3 2020
The 9.0.x branch also includes all the latest commits that will be backported to 8.9.x and earlier branches. 9.0.x and 8.9.x have the same APIs and features. The key changes in 9.0.x are:
Deprecated code will be removed.
Dependencies will be updated to new major versions as appropriate.
Platform requirements (supported PHP and database versions) will be increased.
For all other changes, refer to the 8.9.x branch.
Important changes since 9.0.0-alpha2
For a full list of important changes in Drupal 9.0,
be sure to also read the
9.0.0-alpha1 release notes
and
9.0.0-alpha2 release notes
Server and database requirements
Drupal 9 requires PHP 7.3 or higher, and the version requirement for Apache has been increased to Apache 2.4.7 or higher. The following database versions are supported by Drupal 9 core:
MySQL or Percona 5.7.8.
MariaDB 10.3.7 (Note that this is a more recent release than the MySQL version.)
PostgreSQL 10 with the
pg_trgm extension
SQLite 3.26 (PHP 7.4 does not use the system-provided SQLite, so verify that your PHP is compiled with at least this version). Note that we are discussing lowering this back to 3.22; see the
known issues
section below.
contributed database driver
is available to provide support for older supported versions of MySQL, Percona, and MariaDB until their end of life. (A similar driver could be created for PostgreSQL 9.)
All identifiers (table names, database names, field names and aliases) are quoted in database queries. Column names or aliases should be wrapped in square brackets when using Connection::query(), db_query(), ConditionInterface::where() or SelectInterface::addExpression. Custom or contrib database drivers should read
All identifiers should be quoted in database queries
to see what changes are necessary.
Theme system improvements
A new
Stable 9
base theme has been added for backwards-compatible markup and assets
. Its templates and CSS files have been updated to match with the most recent versions in modules. Drupal 8's Stable theme will still be shipped in Drupal 9 along with Stable 9, but will be deprecated during the Drupal 9 lifecycle to be removed in Drupal 10.
Classy is no longer a base theme of core themes
. Work is underway to further decouple core themes from the Drupal 8 Stable theme. Once this work is complete, the core internal themes will directly receive bugfixes from module changes in minor releases (rather than developers having to copy the fixes into every theme).
Dependency updates
The normalize.css dependency has been updated from 3.0.3 to 8.0.1. Themes that are not extending Stable or Classy should manually test in case they need to update. Drupal 8's Stable theme will continue using normalize.css 3.0.3 for backwards compatibility. Read the
change record on the normalize.css upgrade
for more information.
Drupal is now using stable releases for behat/mink (1.8.0) and behat/mink-selenium2-driver (1.4.0).
Additional
Composer dependency versions have been updated since 9.0.0-alpha2
. (Note that Drupal core is incompatible with symfony/dom-crawler version 4.4.5, and this is reflected in the dependency's compatibility constraint.)
jQuery Cookie replaced by js-cookie
The
jquery.cookie
has been
replaced with js-cookie version 2
. The
core/js-cookie
library is introduced, and a backwards-compatible shim is provided as
core/jquery.cookie
for Drupal 9.
This also required removing jQuery Joyride's dependency on jQuery Cookie. If your site or module initializes Joyride manually,
read the change record about the change to Joyride
We may upgrade to js-cookie 3 if it is available before 9.0.0-rc1.
jQuery UI
The jQuery UI asset libraries not in use by Drupal core have been marked deprecated and have been removed from core in Drupal 9.
For a simple upgrade path to Drupal 9, see the
change record for information on how to use the provided contributed projects that provide replacements
for any modules or themes that depend on these deprecated asset libraries.
Since
jQuery UI itself is no longer actively supported
, it is recommended to find an alternative for the longer term.
Migration system improvements
A new 'complete node migration' is now available and will migrate all nodes and node revisions, including translated nodes and the translated node revisions. The complete node migration is named
d*_node_complete.yml
(where
is the major version, 6 or 7) will eventually replace the existing trio of node migrations,
d*_node
d*_node_revision
, and
d*_node_translation
. See
the change record on the complete node migration
for more information.
Upgrading from Drupal 8
Drupal 8 sites can update to Drupal 9 using update.php or drush. Updates will only run on sites that have already been updated to 8.8.0 or later, and we recommend updating from the latest patch release of Drupal 8.8 (or Drupal 8.9.x once that is out), as well as updating all contributed modules, before updating to Drupal 9. Although Drupal 9 is not yet ready for production, we encourage testing of the upgrade path with the beta release.
Even if you are not ready to begin upgrading to Drupal 9, if you are on 8.7.x or older Drupal versions, you should aim to get onto Drupal 8.8.x as soon as possible.
Note for users of the Experimental Workspaces module
Existing Drupal 8 sites using the experimental Workspaces module must update to at least Drupal 8.8.2 before updating to Drupal 9. (This is due to a required data integrity fix.) Remember that Workspaces is currently in beta status and is not intended for production.
Upgrading from Drupal 7
Drupal 7 users can continue to migrate to Drupal 8.8 and the forthcoming Drupal 8.9 release, updating to Drupal 9.0.x can then happen following its release.
The upgrade path for multilingual sites is stable in Drupal 9.0.0-beta1! It will also included in forthcoming releases of Drupal 8.9.x and Drupal 8.8.x.
