DDEV 1.25.4

What's new in 1.25.4

Installation

See the installation instructions for details, but it's easy:

• macOS：brew install ddev/ddev/ddev or just brew upgrade ddev.
• Linux：Use sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ddev, see apt/yum installation
⚠️ Linux apt/yum users：packages are now served from Cloudsmith (packages.ddev.com). Your existing Gemfury (pkg.ddev.com) setup keeps working, but please re-run the Linux installation steps to switch over.
• Windows and WSL2：Download the Windows Installer; you can run it for install or upgrade.
⚠️ Traditional Windows users (not WSL2)：If needed, the installer will prompt you to uninstall the previous system-wide installation to avoid conflicts with the new per-user installation.
• Consider ddev delete images or ddev delete images --all after upgrading to free up disk space used by previous Docker image versions. This does no harm.
• Consider ddev config --auto to update your projects to current configuration.

Highlights

• Database seeding and reset: ddev start --seed-snapshot=<name-or-path> fills a new database from any snapshot, and ddev start --reset-database deletes the current database and starts fresh, see Snapshots and Database Seeding below
• MySQL 9.7 LTS support, and MySQL 8.0/8.4 now build from Docker Hardened Images (dhi.io/mysql) instead of bitnamilegacy/mysql, which gets no updates
• Env files: .env.local for values you don't want in Git, several files per service separated by a label, and global files that apply to every project, see Environment Variables
• Set things once for every project: global Dockerfiles in ~/.ddev/web-build/ and ~/.ddev/db-build/, and global env files in ~/.ddev/.env*, see Global Configuration below
• apt/rpm packages are now published to Cloudsmith (packages.ddev.com) as well as Gemfury, and the yum repo now verifies package signatures, which the Gemfury one never did. Gemfury (pkg.ddev.com) is still supported but will be retired eventually; see the Linux note above to switch over
