Axolotl on PinePhone / Mobian

[RTP]

What's the proper way to update Axolotl once you have it installed? "git pull", "go get -u", and then rebuild with the last two steps from the installation tutorial? I don't know how go works, but it would be cool to know how to update the app including the dependencies without redoing the whole procedure.

That is a good question. I usually rename the ~/home/go folder, since it is only used for Axolotl in my case and then redo every step - which is awfully inconvenient.

But I will dig into it later!

Cheers

I did update just now by going into the axolotl folder, running "git pull", "go get -u" and then rebuilding with the last two steps in your instructions. The app runs fine and shows the updated version. But I'm not sure if I correctly updated the dependencies with these steps ... Updates for stuff like textsecure v1.2.13 showed up, but I don't know if that's enough to have it all in the right place.

The update works with

Code:

go get -d -u

followed by all other steps. It takes round about two minutes to update. Comfortable.

I wrote an experimental install script, which should be able to update:

Please have a look and try it, if you like. And feel free to give me some feedback.

I had an odd situation where I was no longer receiving messages (but contacts were receiving mine). I decided to give your install script a go.

Works great!

It installed successfully, had some npm error msgs but fixed them using the suggested npm audit fix and after all was said and done, I now am receiving Signal messages again!

So thank you for streamlining into a nice, easy to run script.
