Description: #
PocketBase is an open source backend consisting of embedded database (SQLite) with realtime subscriptions, built-in files and users management, convenient Admin dashboard UI, and simple REST-ish API. It runs as a single portable binary with no external dependencies, making it suitable for small to medium-scale applications, prototyping, and self-hosted deployments.

Notes from UPDATING #
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2026-09-05
    Affects: users of www/pocketbase
    Author: nxjoseph@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      1) Please note that Go 1.27.0, which upstream has been switched to,
      retrofitted `encoding/json` to use the v2 package under the hood but
      unfortunately is not fully backward compatible. I recommend to not
      push blindly an update on production and to test your PocketBase
      application first locally to see if everything works correctly.
    
      2) Note that there could be a slight breaking change in case you are
      chaining PocketBase commands and relied on the previous `0` exit status
      for `Command.RunE` returned errors. Or in other words, if you have
      `./pocketbase invalid && someothercommand` and previously relied that
      `someothercommand` will be always executed then this is no longer the
      case and you'll have to adjust it or replace `&&` with `;`.
