Best method to upgrade atoti version?

Question

I was trying to import atoti to my jupyterlab as

import atoti as tt

I encountered the below problem.

Exception                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

     32 
     33 __all__ = [

    144     for output in get_license_outputs(edition, end_date):
    145         if output.output_type == OutputType.EXCEPTION:
--> 146             raise Exception(output.content)
    147         if output.output_type == OutputType.REGULAR:
    148             print(output.content)

Exception: To keep using atoti, update to atoti's latest version or upgrade to Atoti+.

Can I simply use Conda or pip to upgrade the atoti version or there are some precautions I need to keep in mind so as to not disrupt my environment?

Answer 1

Disclaimer: I am a developer at atoti

This happens because atoti community edition comes with a license that is only valid 64 days. There will always be a new version or a new build with a valid license and you should move to it.

Conda

Conda is smart enough to use the latest build or version so you can simply run

conda update atoti

Pip

If there is a new atoti version you can upgrade to the latest like any other package

pip install --upgrade atoti

If there is no new version and only a new build you have to uninstall and re-install atoti:

pip uninstall atoti
pip install atoti

Note that your build version is visible in the package name. For instance for atoti 0.4.3 on PyPI there is build 0 released on Sep 1, 2020 and build 1 released on Oct 21, 2020 which is still valid.

Answer 2

With the 0.5 release, it will be better to upgrade the atoti-jupyterlab and other atoti associate plugins as well.

conda update atoti atoti-jupyterlab
