How can I upgrade over command line?

[techrivertree]

I am able to upgrade the RPi software with sudo apt-y update and sudo apt -y upgrade but that is not updating Mealie. I read through the install instructions and FAQ. How can I upgrade from v 1.6 to 1.10 using the command line?

i assume you are running mealie through a docker container. docker uses another system to update programms.

• check in your docker-compose.yml file if there is a version specified after the image tag. (E.g: image: ghcr.io/mealie-recipes/mealie:v1.6.0), or whether it has a self updating image tag (latest or nightly). If it is a dedicated version change the tag to the version you want to download. If not you can skip this step.
• Open a command prompt in the folder your docker-compose.yml file is stored.
• execute docker compose pull to download the new image
• execute docker compose up -d to update the container.

After that you might want to look into docker image prune or docker system prune to clean up old images / files

Mealie is installed on an RPi. Using docker-compose.yml does not work,

PiMeal@PiMeal:~ $ docker-compose.yml
-bash: docker-compose.yml: command not found

If you want to open the docker-compose.yml file, try running nano docker-compose.yml or sudo nano docker-compose.yml from the command line inside the folder that contains your mealie instance. From there like @Kuchenpirat suggested, you can run docker compose down && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d to stop, update, and restart you container.
