Upgrade your server

Upgrading Ente depends on the method of installation you have chosen.

Quickstart

For Docker users

You can free up some disk space by deleting older images that were used by obsolette containers.

docker image prune

Pull in the latest images in the directory where the Compose file resides. Restart the cluster to recreate containers with newer images.

Run the following command inside my-ente directory (default name used in quickstart):

docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

Docker Compose

You can pull in the latest source code from Git and build a new cluster based on the updated source code.

1. Pull the latest changes from main.

   # Assuming you have cloned repository to ente
   cd ente
   # Pull changes
   git pull

2. Recreate the cluster.

   cd server/config
   # Stop and remove containers if they are running
   docker compose down
   # Build with latest code
   docker compose up --build

Manual Setup

You can pull in the latest source code from Git and build a new cluster based on the updated source code.

1. Pull the latest changes from main.

   # Assuming you have cloned repository to ente
   cd ente
   
   # Pull changes and only keep changes from remote.
   # This is needed to keep yarn.lock up-to-date.
   # This resets all changes made in the local repository.
   # Make sure to stash changes if you have made any.
   git fetch origin
   git reset --hard main

2. Follow the steps described in manual setup for Museum and web applications.
