# Updating your local instance

## Hands-free

The easiest way to update your on-prem/local instance (pro or community)

**Run the script *****update-ciso-assistant*****:**

```bash
./update-ciso-assistant.sh
```

## Detailled steps

In case of issues (unsupported shell, windows, etc.) here are the steps to consider:

1. backup your db:
   1. if you're using `sqlite`, copy the file under a different name
   2. if it's `postgresql` you can use something like `pgdump` 

2. stop and clean the containers, this won't affect your data

`docker compose rm -fs`

3. restart the compose and let it handle the migration 

`docker compose up -d`

## Edge cases

**Force remove the previous docker images to get the new ones**

```bash
docker rmi ghcr.io/intuitem/ciso-assistant-community/backend:latest ghcr.io/intuitem/ciso-assistant-community/frontend:latest 2> /dev/null
```
