# Install the Latest Code
|
||||
|
||||
As with the initial installation, you can upgrade NetBox by either downloading the latest release package or by cloning the `master` branch of the git repository.
|
||||
|
||||
## Option A: Download a Release
|
||||
|
||||
Download the [latest stable release](https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox/releases) from GitHub as a tarball or ZIP archive. Extract it to your desired path. In this example, we'll use `/opt/netbox`. For this guide we are using 1.0.4 as the old version and 1.0.7 as the new version.
|
||||
|
||||
Download & extract latest version:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# wget https://github.com/digitalocean/netbox/archive/vX.Y.Z.tar.gz
|
||||
# tar -xzf vX.Y.Z.tar.gz -C /opt
|
||||
# cd /opt/
|
||||
# ln -sf netbox-1.0.7/ netbox
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the 'configuration.py' you created when first installing to the new version:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# cp /opt/netbox-1.0.4/configuration.py /opt/netbox/configuration.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Option B: Clone the Git Repository (latest master release)
|
||||
|
||||
For this guide, we'll use `/opt/netbox`.
|
||||
|
||||
Check that your git branch is up to date & is set to master:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# cd /opt/netbox
|
||||
# git status
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If not on branch master, set it and verify status:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# git checkout master
|
||||
# git status
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Pull down the set branch from git status above:
|
||||
```
|
||||
# git pull
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the Upgrade Script
|
||||
|
||||
Once the new code is in place, run the upgrade script (which may need to be run as root depending on how your environment is configured).
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# ./upgrade.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This script:
|
||||
|
||||
* Installs or upgrades any new required Python packages
|
||||
* Applies any database migrations that were included in the release
|
||||
* Collects all static files to be served by the HTTP service
|
||||
|
||||
# Restart the WSGI Service
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, restart the WSGI service to run the new code. If you followed this guide for the initial installation, this is done using `supervisorctl`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# sudo supervisorctl restart netbox
|
||||
```
