How to update Evolution API​

The steps to update your Evolution depend on which platform you use. Refer to the documentation for your Evolution:

Tags​

Docker​

There is two main tags used in Docker, latest and homolog.

  • Latest: this image contains the most stable version, recommended in most cases.
  • Homolog: test and feature implementation, also referred as next version. This version may be not stable and is not recommended for production environments.

Github​

There is two main branches/tags used in github, main and homolog.

  • main: most stable version, recommended in most cases.
  • Homolog: Test and feature implementation, also referred as next version. This version may be not stable and is not recommended for production environments.

Versions nomenclature​

Evolution uses semantic versioning. All version numbers are in the format MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Version numbers increment as follows:

  • Major version when making incompatible changes which potentially require user action.
  • Minor version when adding functionality in a backward-compatible manner.
  • Patch version when making backward-compatible bug fixes.
info

This is the latest version, the most stable as of right now. We recommend uses of the latest version instead of homolog for stability reasons.
