Update Fusio from backend

[Broekhuis]

Hi ,

Fusio works great for me, however I'm not very comfortable with CLI (and I am on a shared server).

Would you consider creating an option to update Fusio from the backend api? That would be of great help to me (and possibly others?)

Thanks & regards

Hi @Broekhuis, nice to hear, so you basically mean that you download the latest release of Fusip, upload the files and instead of invoking "php bin/fusio install" to update your installation on the CLI you would like to have an option to trigger this command via the web?

In general we could think about using the install.php for this, this script already executes the install command for installation so I would see no problem in extending this so that it can be also used to update an installation.

That would be great! In the ideal situation, the download/upload itself would also be taken care of by the update function, as well as database updates (if necessary).

Maybe you can add an "update" button in the backend app under the "system" tab?

I am aware that I am probably not as technically-skilled as the majority of users that Fusio is intended for. However, Fusio does exactly what I need and it would be of great help if I could update it as easy as, say, Wordpress or Joomla...
