Breaking Changes

Change in Cart-Completion Strategy Response

In previous versions, if you attempt to complete a cart that's already completed, you will receive a response with status code409, indicating a conflict.

In v1.19 of the Medusa backend, the order or swap associated with the completed cart is returned instead with status code 200:

// completing a regular cart
{
  response_code: 200,
  response_body: { data: order, type: "order" },
}

// completing a swap cart
{
  response_code: 200,
  response_body: { data: swap, type: "swap" },
}

Replaced node-redis with ioredis

In previous versions, the Medusa backend used node-redis to manage the Express session store.

In v1.19, node-redis is replaced with ioredis for higher configurability of the Redis client used for session management, and to make Redis configurations consistent with Redis modules (such as the Redis Event or Cache modules) which use ioredis.
