Updating indi allsky - aaronwmorris/indi-allsky GitHub Wiki

General

indi-allsky upgrades are rolling releases. You should be able to upgrade to the latest release of indi-allsky from any previous release.

Note: Upgrading INDI is not necessary when upgrading indi-allsky

Unattended Upgrade

indi-allsky now has an unattended upgrade option that can perform a code upgrade with no interaction from the user.

Navigate to System -> Utilities [tab] and select Upgrade indi-allsky. The upgrade may require up to 5 minutes to complete. During the upgrade, the indi-allsky capture process will be shutdown and restarted (if it was running) once the upgrade is complete. A notification will be shown in the web interface once the upgrade has completed.

The unattended upgrade runs as an out-of-band systemd service unit which allows it to function outside the indi-allsky system processes.

Notes
- The unattended upgrade will only function when a non-authenticated GitHub checkout has been used (https://).
- The upgrade will only proceed if you are on the main branch.
- Any code modifications prevent the unattended upgrade from running.

Manual Unattended Upgrade

You may run the unattended upgrade manually if the GitHub checkout requires an SSH key for authentication or you just want to monitor the process.

./misc/unattended_upgrade.sh

Normal upgrade

Navigate to the current git clone
```
 cd indi-allsky
```
Stop indi-allsky & gunicorn
```
 systemctl --user stop indi-allsky
```
Pull the latest changes via git
```
 git pull origin main
```
Re-run setup.sh to configure system. This step is not always required, the indi-allsky service will usually indicate when it is necessary.
```
 ./setup.sh
```
- If you get a message about repositories not being valid, you may have to re-enable NTP time sync
```
  sudo timedatectl set-ntp true
```
Restart indi-allsky
```
 systemctl --user start indi-allsky
```
