What are all the options for `./nodebb upgrade`?

[julian]

./nodebb upgrade conducts an upgrade of your NodeBB installation. It is typically run after new code is checked out via git, or if your installation directory has been overwritten with a new version of NodeBB.

It does a number of things in sequence, but did you know you can also instruct the upgrader to run only a subset of those tasks?

Here are the options for ./nodebb upgrade:

./nodebb upgrade [-mipsb]

    -m    merge; merges the latest package.json from install/ into the root level package.json file
    -i    install; runs the package manager installation (npm or yarn)
    -p    plugins; checks the NodeBB package manager for new plugin versions and upgrades them as necessary
    -s    schema; runs database schema upgrade scripts as necessary
    -b    build; builds NodeBB assets

You are able to run any combination of those options, and running ./nodebb upgrade with no flags at all will execute all of the above tasks.

Happy upgrading!
