General Upgrade Instructions

For general upgrade instructions, please follow the instructions below. Certain versions may have specific upgrade instructions, which will be detailed in more specific upgrade guides.

Kubernetes(Helm)

If you don't have the repo added, run the following command to add it:

helm repo add langchain https://langchain-ai.github.io/helm/

Update your local helm repo

helm repo update

Update your helm chart config file with any updates that are needed in the new version. These will be detailed in the release notes for the new version.

Run the following command to upgrade the chart(replace version with the version you want to upgrade to):

Namespace

If you are using a namespace other than the default namespace, you will need to specify the namespace in the helm and kubectl commands by using the -n <namespace flag.

helm upgrade <release-name> langchain/langsmith --version <version> --values <path-to-values-file>

Verify that the upgrade was successful:

helm status <release-name>

All pods should be in the Running state. Verify that clickhouse is running and that both migrations jobs have completed.

kubectl get pods

2. Curl the external ip of the langsmith-frontend service:

   curl <external ip>/api/info
   {"version":"0.5.7","license_expiration_time":"2033-05-20T20:08:06","batch_ingest_config":{"scale_up_qsize_trigger":1000,"scale_up_nthreads_limit":16,"scale_down_nempty_trigger":4,"size_limit":100,"size_limit_bytes":20971520}}

Check that the version matches the version you upgraded to.

3. Visit the external ip for the langsmith-frontend service on your browser

   The Langsmith UI should be visible/operational

   

Docker

Upgrading the Docker version of LangSmith is a bit more involved than the Helm version and may require a small amount of downtime. Please follow the instructions below to upgrade your Docker version of LangSmith.

1. Update your docker-compose.yml file to the file used in the latest release. You can find this in the LangSmith SDK GitHub repository
2. Update your .env file with any new environment variables that are required in the new version. These will be detailed in the release notes for the new version.
3. Run the following command to stop your current LangSmith instance:

docker-compose down

4. Run the following command to start your new LangSmith instance in the background:

docker-compose up -d

If everything ran successfully, you should see all the LangSmith containers running and healthy.
