Upgrading Microprobe

The process for installing Microprobe depends on your type of installation: PIP (python package manager) based installation or GIT (development mode) installation.

Upgrading a PIP installation

You just need to activate your Microprobe virtual environment and execute the pip command as following:

> source INSTALLDIRECTORY/bin/activate
> pip install -U --pre microprobe_all

If you only want to upgrade some packages within Microprobe, use the following commands:

> source INSTALLDIRECTORY/bin/activate
> pip install -U --pre <your_microprobe_packages>

Check Microprobe package organization to know the list of packages available.

Upgrading a GIT installation

If you have installed Microprobe directly from the GIT repository (preferred option for developers), then execute these commands:

> cd INSTALLDIRECTORY/microprobe
> git pull --update --recurse-submodules
> find . -name \.*.yaml*cache -delete

Basically, we are pulling the latest copy of the repository and the submodules from the origin repository and cleaning up any cached files.
