Upgrading
This page describes how to upgrade the Nextstrain CLI–the nextstrain
command–itself, without also upgrading the entire Nextstrain
runtime.
The way to upgrade depends on what kind of Nextstrain CLI installation you have
(i.e. how it was first installed), so running nextstrain check-setup
:
$ nextstrain check-setup
A new version of nextstrain-cli, X.Y.Z, is available! You're running A.B.C.
See what's new in the changelog:
https://github.com/nextstrain/cli/blob/X.Y.Z/CHANGES.md#readme
Upgrade by running:
[UPGRADE COMMAND]
Testing your setup…
…
will suggest a command to run to upgrade nextstrain
, if there are any
upgrades available. Run the suggested command to perform the upgrade.
Afterwards, you can check that the new version was installed by running:
$ nextstrain version
nextstrain.cli X.Y.Z
