Dashticz - how to update

[desertdog]

Hi, I am currently on version 3.3.3.1 of Dashticz and I want to update to the latest version. In the documentation, I can find how to perform an Automatic or Manual install, but not how to update. Of course, I want everything to be working since I have spent hours, even days setting it up the way I want it.
What is the proper and (most) safe way to update?

Updating
Option 1 - From terminal you can add the following command in Dashticz folder:

git pull

Option 2 - Download zip file from GitHub, copy and extract in your Dashticz folder. Create backup of your custom folder(s) first.

when executing the git pull I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Updating e67ca607..6bac9acf
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
	custom/custom.css
	custom/custom.js
Please commit your changes or stash them before you merge.

How do I do that?

[willemd]

log into your system, go to the custom folder and copy the files:
cp custom.css customcss.backup
cp custom.js customjs.backup

Once you have done the upgrade you can copy them back:
cp customcss.backup custom.css
cp customjs.backup custom.js

That worked like a charm. Thanks

I have updated Dashticz to the lastest version using the git pull method. I still get errors about Deprecated RType coming from Dashticz
I see on the Github: Previous repositories (dashticz/dashticz_v2 and dashticzv3/dashticz_v3) will not be updated anymore.
I am running V3. How do I update to a version that doesn't give the

2023-09-01 19:20:25.233 [WebServer] Deprecated RType (settings) for API request. Handled via fallback (getsettings), please use correct API Command! (192.168.1.106)

Are you using latest stable or beta version and what is exactly your version?
I advice you to try latest beta 3.10.7.
You can easily switch from stable to beta via terminal:

Code: Select all

git fetch origin
git checkout beta

I Now updated to the v3.10.5-beta, but this gives me a Domoticz authorization error
I guess this has to do with the new authorization method. But where do I have to change things? Can't find any info in the readme about it

[HansieNL]

Try latest beta 3.10.7. This version should run without authorization errors.
