The following instructions will help you upgrade Raspi-Sump from version 1.10 to later decimal and major versions.
Raspi-Sump now creates a virtualenv in /opt/raspi-sump/.
It will be necessary to enter the virtual environment to perform the upgrade process.
Activate the virtual environment;
source /opt/raspi-sump/bin/activate
Your cursor will now look as follows;
(raspi-sump) username@hostname:~ $
The (raspi-sump) portion identifies an active virtual environment.
Perform the upgrade;
pip3 install -U --no-binary :all: raspisump
NOTE*** You will see some depracation warnings from pip, don't worry as these will be addressed in a future release. Proceed with configuration....
Once the install is complete you can deactivate the virtual environment as follows.
deactivate
Your cursor will now return to normal and you may proceed with configuration.
username@hostname:~ $
Reload the systemd user daemon
systemctl --user daemon-reload
Restart raspisump and rsumpwebchart.timer
systemctl --user restart raspisump
systemctl --user restart rsumpwebchart.timer
Check to make sure raspi-sump and rsumpwebchart.timer are running
systemctl --user status raspisump
systemctl --user status rsumpwebchart.timer
You are looking for the following line to show that the service is active;
Active: active (running) since Tue 2025-01-28 09:55:34 EST; 1 weeks 0 days ago
For help with any issues that may arise, run the following command;
rsumpsupport
** If you did not add /opt/raspi-sump/bin to your path as mentioned in the install instructions you can type the full location of the command
/opt/raspi-sump/bin/rsumpsupport
This will create a file support_date_time.txt in the /home/__username__/raspi-sump/support directory that can be attached to a support request.
This text file will provide key information to diagnose any issues when requesting support. There is no sensitive information in the file except the name of the /home/user folder. If you are uncomfortable posting this info you can email it to me instead.
