Keeping Lattis Updated
Lattis checks for updates and can download them in the background, so you do not need to monitor releases manually.
How updates work
Section titled “How updates work”When a new version is available, Lattis:
- Notifies you that an update is ready.
- Downloads it in the background, showing progress as it goes.
- Waits for your confirmation, then applies the update and relaunches.
Nothing is installed until you confirm. The update is applied in place; the background service stops briefly during the replacement and then restarts.
Checking your version
Section titled “Checking your version”You can see the running version in the app, or by asking the daemon directly:
curl http://127.0.0.1:5288/health# {"status":"ok","version":"…","build":"…","pid":…}The build field includes the git hash and build time, which helps confirm which
build is serving.
If you built from source
Section titled “If you built from source”Automatic updates apply to the installed desktop app. A build you compiled yourself won’t self-update — pull and rebuild as usual. If the updater reports that updates are unavailable, that’s expected for a source or development build.
- Download — get the latest installed build manually if you ever need to.
- Configuration & Storage — where Lattis keeps its state across updates.
