Updating your development instance

After each Arkindex release, or whenever you pull changes from master, you need to upgrade your installation so that your development instance is functional and up-to-date.

For the backend, you need to:

  • Run the database migrations, using the arkindex migrate command,

  • Install or upgrade the dependencies, using the pip install -e . command.

If you are developing using the Enterprise Edition of Arkindex, you must run the database migrations using the arkindex-ee migrate command instead.

In the frontend, running npm install will update the packages.
