Will upgrading node.js break ionic app & app then has to be resubmitted to app stores?


Got an email from heroku to upgrade node.js for a security patch.

1) If I do that will it break my whole ionic application (ionic 2 beta 11) or not cause any problems? I'm currently running node js v6.9.1 on the heroku app and I think I need to upgrade to 6.11.1.

It says I need to upgrade and commit even if the commit is empty by doing this:

$ git commit --allow-empty -m "upgrade Node.js version"
$ git push heroku master

2) Since my app is on the android and apple app stores, do I need to then resubmit my app to both stores after this node.js upgrade or am I mixing apples and oranges this upgrade just deals with heroku and therefore I don't need to resubmit the app?

If someone can please give me some advice, I'm a bit stuck, thank you!


Solution

  • From what I understand, you have your app's API on Heroku, am I right?

    If so, your app doesn't need to be submitted to Apple/Google again.

    As for your first question, I don't think there is any breaking change from 6.9.1 to 6.11.1 but if I were you, I'd check the update doc just to be sure.
