Use 'monica:update' command

In the installation script

You can be replaced by monica:update command.

# setup application config
cd $final_path && sudo /usr/bin/php7.1 artisan config:clear
cd $final_path && sudo /usr/bin/php7.1 artisan -q migrate --force
cd $final_path && sudo /usr/bin/php7.1 artisan -q storage:link
cd $final_path && sudo /usr/bin/php7.1 artisan -q setup:production --force

https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monica_ynh/blob/master/scripts/install#L142 monica:update command does exactly the same job, and more.

In the upgrade script

cd $final_path && sudo /usr/bin/php7.1 artisan migrate --force

https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monica_ynh/blob/master/scripts/upgrade#L117 You should run monica:update command because it runs not only the migration, but other script an upgrade should do.

Thank for helping. Is there need to backup any directory in the main folder while update is done like cache or profile picture,etc. The upgrade script removes the Monica directory complete and reinstall the new version. Fixed https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monica_ynh/commit/8e9beb5a148a08be531c91e3852346caf7ead964

Further questions :). Can the php7.0 be used instead of php7.1 ? Yunohost have option to change the url of the app. Can the url of Monica be changed ? If yes, is there some changes need to be done in the core app or just changing the nginx config will do it?

@anmol26s We depend on Laravel 5.6, which need php >= 7.1, so : non, php7.0 can't be used. Url can be changed, you will just need to update APP_URL environment variable (in .env file), to make generated mails use the right address.

@asbiin The APP_URL is used as localhost see here https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monica_ynh/blob/master/conf/.env#L21 because of this issue https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/monica_ynh/issues/3
