Firecrawl Upgrade & Migration

Current State

!npm list @mendable/firecrawl-js 2>/dev/null | grep firecrawl || echo 'Not installed'

Overview

Guide for upgrading @mendable/firecrawl-js SDK versions and migrating from Firecrawl API v0/v1 to v2. Covers breaking changes in import paths, method signatures, response formats, and the new extract v2 schema format.

Version History

Instructions

Step 1: Check Current Version

set -euo pipefail
# Check installed version
npm list @mendable/firecrawl-js

# Check latest available
npm view @mendable/firecrawl-js version

Step 2: Create Upgrade Branch

set -euo pipefail
git checkout -b upgrade/firecrawl-sdk
npm install @mendable/firecrawl-js@latest
npm test

Step 3: Migration — v0 to v1/v2

Import Changes

// No change needed — import has been stable
import FirecrawlApp from "@mendable/firecrawl-js";

Crawl Method Changes (v0 -> v1)

// BEFORE (v0): crawlUrl with waitUntilDone
const result = await firecrawl.crawlUrl("https://example.com", {
  crawlerOptions: { limit: 50 },
  pageOptions: { onlyMainContent: true },
  waitUntilDone: true,
});

// AFTER (v1+): crawlUrl returns synchronously, or use asyncCrawlUrl
const result = await firecrawl.crawlUrl("https://example.com", {
  limit: 50,
  scrapeOptions: {
    formats: ["markdown"],
    onlyMainContent: true,
  },
});

// For large crawls, use async with polling
const job = await firecrawl.asyncCrawlUrl("https://example.com", {
  limit: 500,
  scrapeOptions: { formats: ["markdown"] },
});
const status = await firecrawl.checkCrawlStatus(job.id);

Scrape Options Changes (v0 -> v1)

// BEFORE (v0)
await firecrawl.scrapeUrl("https://example.com", {
  pageOptions: { onlyMainContent: true },
  extractorOptions: { mode: "llm-extraction", schema: mySchema },
});

// AFTER (v1+)
await firecrawl.scrapeUrl("https://example.com", {
  formats: ["markdown", "extract"],
  onlyMainContent: true,
  extract: { schema: mySchema },
});

Extract v2 Format (v1 -> v2)

// BEFORE (v1): extract as top-level option
await firecrawl.scrapeUrl(url, {
  formats: ["extract"],
  extract: { schema: { type: "object", ... } },
});

// AFTER (v2): schema embedded in formats array
// Note: SDK handles this internally, but REST API changed
// POST /v2/extract with { urls: [...], schema: {...} }

New Methods in v1+

// mapUrl — fast URL discovery (not available in v0)
const map = await firecrawl.mapUrl("https://example.com");
console.log(map.links);

// batchScrapeUrls — scrape multiple URLs at once
const batch = await firecrawl.batchScrapeUrls(
  ["https://a.com", "https://b.com"],
  { formats: ["markdown"] }
);

// asyncBatchScrapeUrls + checkBatchScrapeStatus
const job = await firecrawl.asyncBatchScrapeUrls(urls, { formats: ["markdown"] });
const status = await firecrawl.checkBatchScrapeStatus(job.id);

Step 4: Run Tests and Verify

set -euo pipefail
npm test

# Quick integration check
npx tsx -e "
import FirecrawlApp from '@mendable/firecrawl-js';
const fc = new FirecrawlApp({ apiKey: process.env.FIRECRAWL_API_KEY! });
const r = await fc.scrapeUrl('https://example.com', { formats: ['markdown'] });
console.log('Success:', r.success, 'Chars:', r.markdown?.length);
"

Step 5: Rollback if Needed

set -euo pipefail
# Pin to previous version
npm install @mendable/firecrawl-js@1.x.x --save-exact
npm test

Breaking Changes Checklist

• crawlerOptions / pageOptions → flat options + scrapeOptions
• waitUntilDone: true → use crawlUrl (sync) or asyncCrawlUrl + polling
• extractorOptions → extract with schema or prompt
• Response shape: data array for crawl results, markdown/html for scrape
• New methods: mapUrl, batchScrapeUrls, asyncBatchScrapeUrls
