Upgrades

Back up state first, then upgrade the binary or image, then verify the Web console, /docs/*, database state, and provider/plugin status.

Run this from SSH or a local CLI:

appaloft upgrade check

The Web console Instance page also shows the current version, latest version, target version, and a copyable SSH update command.

The standard self-hosted installation can still be updated by rerunning the installer. It reuses /opt/appaloft/.env and the existing data volumes:

curl -fsSL https://appaloft.com/install.sh | sudo sh

To target a specific version:

appaloft upgrade apply --version 0.2.1 --confirm

The Web console “Update now” button is enabled only when a host-side process explicitly sets APPALOFT_INSTANCE_UPGRADE_APPLY_ENABLED=1. Default container deployments do not let the Web process mutate the host Docker installation directly.

Before rolling back, confirm whether database migrations are reversible and whether the old version can read current state.
