# Updating OpenOps

> How to update OpenOps to a newer release

To update OpenOps to a newer version, you can either use an automatic update script, or perform a manual update.

## Automatic update

1. In the terminal, navigate to your OpenOps installation directory.
2. Run the following command to install the latest available version of OpenOps in the same directory:
   ```shell
   curl -fsS https://openops.sh/install | OPENOPS_INSTALLATION_PATH="$PWD" ${SHELL:-/bin/sh}
   ```

The script will stop all running containers, pull the latest images, and restart OpenOps.

## Manual update

1. Install the `unzip` utility (if not already installed):
   ```shell
   sudo apt install unzip
   ```
2. Navigate to your OpenOps installation directory.
3. Stop all running containers:
   ```shell
   sudo docker compose down
   ```
4. Download and extract the new version:
   ```shell
   curl -OL https://github.com/openops-cloud/openops/releases/download/0.5.2/openops-dc-0.5.2.zip && \
   unzip -o openops-dc-0.5.2.zip
   ```
   (This code sample refers to a specific version. Don't forget to update it to the version you're installing.)
5. Fetch the new images and restart the application:
   ```shell
   sudo COMPOSE_PARALLEL_LIMIT=4 docker compose pull -q && sudo docker compose up -d
   ```
6. (Optional) After confirming that the updated version is running correctly, you can safely clean up older Docker images, including OpenOps images:
   ```shell
   docker image prune -af
   ```
