## Quick Steps to Update n8n
|
|
|
|
When there's a new n8n version available, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# 1. Update n8n dependencies automatically
|
|
npm run update:n8n
|
|
|
|
# 2. Validate the update
|
|
npm run validate
|
|
|
|
# 3. Commit and push
|
|
git add -A
|
|
git commit -m "chore: update n8n to vX.X.X
|
|
|
|
- Updated n8n from X.X.X to X.X.X
|
|
- Updated n8n-core from X.X.X to X.X.X
|
|
- Updated n8n-workflow from X.X.X to X.X.X
|
|
- Updated @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain from X.X.X to X.X.X
|
|
- Rebuilt node database with XXX nodes
|
|
- Sanitized XXX workflow templates (if present)
|
|

|
git push origin main
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## What the Commands Do
|
|
|
|
### `npm run update:n8n`
|
|
This single command:
|
|
1. Checks for the latest n8n version
|
|
2. Updates n8n and all its required dependencies (n8n-core, n8n-workflow, @n8n/n8n-nodes-langchain)
|
|
3. Runs `npm install` to update package-lock.json
|
|
4. Automatically rebuilds the node database
|
|
5. Sanitizes any workflow templates to remove API tokens
|
|
6. Shows you exactly what versions were updated
|
|
|
|
### `npm run validate`
|
|
- Validates critical nodes (httpRequest, code, slack, agent)
|
|
- Shows database statistics
|
|
- Confirms everything is working correctly
|
|
|
|
## Important Notes
|
|
|
|
1. **Always run on main branch** - Make sure you're on main and it's clean
|
|
2. **The update script is smart** - It automatically syncs all n8n dependencies to compatible versions
|
|
3. **Database rebuild is automatic** - The update script handles this for you
|
|
4. **Template sanitization is automatic** - Any API tokens in workflow templates are replaced with placeholders
|
|
5. **Docker image builds automatically** - Pushing to GitHub triggers the workflow
|
|
|
|
## GitHub Push Protection
|
|
|
|
As of July 2025, GitHub's push protection may block database pushes if they contain API tokens in workflow templates. Our rebuild process now automatically sanitizes these tokens, but if you encounter push protection errors:
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure you've run the latest rebuild with `npm run rebuild`
|
|
2. Verify sanitization with `npm run sanitize:templates`
|
|
3. If push is still blocked, use the GitHub web interface to review and allow the push
|
|
|
|
## Time Estimate
|
|
- Total time: ~3-5 minutes
|
|
- Most time is spent on `npm install` and database rebuild
|
|
- The actual commands take seconds to run
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If validation fails:
|
|
1. Check the error message - usually it's a node type reference issue
|
|
2. The update script handles most compatibility issues automatically
|
|
3. If needed, check the GitHub Actions logs for the dependency update workflow
|
|
|
|
## Alternative: Check First
|
|
To see what would be updated without making changes:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm run update:n8n:check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At the end, update version badges in README.md
