This page describes how to upgrade the Nextstrain CLI--the nextstrain
command--itself, without also upgrading the entire Nextstrain docs:runtime
.
The first step is to figure out what kind of Nextstrain CLI installation you have.
If you run conda activate nextstrain
before running nextstrain
commands, then you're using a Conda-based installation like we describe in the Nextstrain installation steps <docs:install>
. In this case, run the following to upgrade:
conda activate nextstrain
mamba update -c conda-forge -c bioconda nextstrain-cli
Otherwise, you're using another installation method and running:
$ nextstrain check-setup
A new version of nextstrain-cli, X.Y.Z, is available! You're running A.B.C.
Upgrade by running:
[UPGRADE COMMAND]
Testing your setup…
…
will suggest a command to run to upgrade nextstrain
. Run the suggested command to perform the upgrade.
Either way, you can check the new version that was installed by running:
$ nextstrain version
nextstrain.cli 3.2.1
