To update your Hudu instance on self-hosted:
Before updating, always make sure you have a current backup. Plan for about 5-10 minutes of downtime. You can update your Hudu instance to a new version by running:
Run:
cd ~/hudu2 && sudo docker compose down && sudo docker compose pull && sudo docker compose up -d
* Note that if you are using an older version of docker, it will be:
cd ~/hudu2 && sudo docker-compose down && sudo docker-compose pull && sudo docker-compose up -d
If you are updating your self-hosted instance to version 2.35.0 or later, you will need to make sure to add the following location/cable block under the last deny block in the default.conf file. Please see our self-hosted guides as a reference for the expected format of the newly added block.
Navigate to /var/www/hudu2/config/nginx/site-confs/ to edit the default.conf file and add this block under the last deny block:
location /cable {
proxy_pass http://app:3000/cable;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_read_timeout 240s;
proxy_send_timeout 240s;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_pass_request_headers on;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_redirect off;
break;
}
Below is an example of how the default.conf file should be structured:
