n8n - upgrade straight to the latest version
-
Hello,
I am using n8n with Cloudron for 1 year, along with a pro plan of n8n.io,
While I kove the cloudron verison, The update process is still very time-consuming.
on n8n.cloud pro plan, you have an interface where you can choose directly to which version you want to upgrade. in the example below I'm on v 1.91 and can upgrade straight to v1.98
But on Cloudron for now I have to go through each intermediate update. On the example below, to go from package [3.75.0] to [3.87.0] I need to go through 20 intermediate packages. And we are here with less than 3 months of updates
How can i manage to request Cloudron to make 1 single backup then automatically update to a specific package ? [3.87.0] in this case, without manually manage all intermediate updates ?
Thanks,
Ian
(EDIT): note that I'm aware of the option of automatic updates, I still want to manually decide at which time to update and to which package I want to update, to avoid service interruption at any time during the day, and control the target update package

@Ian4life Our whole update system is set up for rolling updates i.e we test against the previous release. Jumping releases is not just untested, the packaging code is also not geared for this.
You can do this hack: go to updates -> schedule and just select every hour . Then leave automatic update on and it will catch up very quickly.
Another hack is set up the CLI tool and then cloudron update --app <domain> --appstore-id <n8n>@<package-version> . But I don't recommend this at all because this skips the whole rolling update mechanism and I have no clue if it will update properly or not
