# Migration Guide
|
||||
|
||||
Pa11y Dashboard's API changes between major versions. This is a guide to help you make the switch when this happens.

Migrating from 1.0 to 2.0
|

-------------------------
|
||||
### PhantomJS to Headless Chrome
|
||||
|
||||
Pa11y Dashboard 3 uses version 5 of Pa11y, which replaces PhantomJS with [Headless Chrome](https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/04/headless-chrome). This allows us to use more modern JavaScript APIs and make Pa11y testing more stable.
|
||||
|
||||
As a result of this change, [Pa11y Dashboard's requirements](../README.md#requirements) have changed, and you may need to install additional dependencies required by Chrome before being able to use this version.
|
||||
|
||||
### Node.js Support
|
||||
|
||||
Pa11y Webservice 3 requires Node.js version 8 or greater. Versions 4 and 6 are not supported any more.
|
||||
|
||||
### Miscellaneous
|
||||
|
||||
The default viewport dimensions for Pa11y have been changed from `1024x768` to `1280x1024`. This could make pa11y report a different number of errors if different content appears on the page based on its width, so results obtained with v2 and v3 may not be comparable.

Setup
|
||||
-----
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
Pa11y Dashboard requires [Node.js][node] 4+. See the [Pa11y][pa11y] documentation for detailed instructions on how to install this on your operating system.
|
||||
Pa11y Dashboard is a [Node.js][node] application and requires a stable or LTS version of Node, currently version 8 or greater.
|
||||
|
||||
Pa11y Dashboard also requires a [MongoDB][mongo] database to be available so it can store the results of the tests. The database doesn't have to be in the same server or computer where Pa11y Dashboard is running from.
|
||||
|
||||
Since version 3, Pa11y Dashboard uses Headless Chrome in order to run the tests. This means that additional dependencies maybe be required.
|
||||
|
||||
In [Unix-like](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like) systems you may need to install the `libnss3` and `libgconf-2-4` libraries in order to be able to run Chrome. If you're trying to run the app in a headless environment (e.g. the cloud, or a headless server), you may also need to configure Xvfb before. Please refer to the documentation from your provider for details on how to do this.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
In order to run Pa11y Dashboard, we recommend cloning this repository locally:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/pa11y/pa11y-dashboard.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then installing the dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
cd pa11y-dashboard
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You'll also need to have [MongoDB][mongo] installed and running. For quick access, you can install via a package manager such as on Mac OS `brew install mongodb` or on Linux (Debian) it would be `apt-get install mongodb`. To run MongoDB, you can run `mongod` in the command line. See the [MongoDB install guide][mongo-install] for more detailed information.
|
||||
|
||||
You'll then need to clone this repo locally and install dependencies with `npm install`. Now you need to add some configuration before you can run the application. We can do this in two ways:
|
||||
The last step before being able to run the application is to define a configuration for it. This can be done in two ways:
