Versioning and Upgrade

Versioning

IMPulse uses version numbers like v1.0.2 where:

• 1 is a major version. It increases only when the user must perform manual operations to update
• 0 is a minor version. It increases when new features or many changes are added
• 2 is a bugfix version. It increases when code changes are minimal

Upgrade

For the major version upgrade (v1.6.0 -> v2.0.0) you should follow Upgrade instructions in CHANGELOG.md. Major version upgrades must be performed sequentially: to upgrade from v1.0.0 to v3.0.0, you must first upgrade to v2.0.0.

Other upgrades can be done without manual operations.

Docker

1. See impulse.yml↰ upgrade instructions in CHANGELOG.md (for major version upgrade).
2. Set the new tag in docker-compose.yml.
3. Execute docker compose up -d.
