Updating MOV.AI Flow™

What will you lose on an update?

🚧

After the update, these are the items that will likely be removed. Please follow through with them before updating.

• The Debian packages installed by you inside the spawner container:
  • Please set up your dependencies correctly inside the package.xml of your ROS package before the update, such that rebuilding your catkin workspace installs the lost packages.
  • Follow this comprehensive tutorial from ROS for more details on how to set up your package.xml file.
• The build objects in your catkin workspace:
  • Since each update of MOV.AI Flow™ might contain an update of the base ROS packages, it's better for you to re-build your catkin workspace.
  • Follow this tutorial for more details.
• The metadata:
  • Currently, we are saving the metadata (Flows, Nodes, Callbacks, Configurations) on a persistent database volume but there may be a case when this would be cleaned.
