Upgrade

Always be up-to-date with the latest binary version

Basic Usage

Terminal
talos upgrade [options...]

This subcommand allows upgrading Talos to a specified or latest version available.

Common Options

--dry

The --dry flag forces the upgrade handler to perform all actions without actually upgrading.

--tag

By specifying the --tag option, Talos will try to upgrade (or downgrade) to the desired version given. When not specified, it will attempt upgrading to the latest version available.

--force

If the requested version is the same as the current installation, upgrading will not proceed. This can be circumvented by enabling the --force flag which will allow reinstalling the current version.

--quiet

Disables verbose output whilst upgrading the runtime.

Uninstalling Talos

Talos also allows uninstalling itself through the --remove flag. This flag will short-circuit all the others and force the runtime to self-destruct.

Terminal
# This will uninstall the executable and all native crates.
talos upgrade --remove

Alternatively, the installation directory $HOME/.talos can be manually deleted.
