Update

This subcommand will search the latest release from an URL (the official SimpleK8s repository by default), download and decompress it into /boot/simplek8s/; the last step will configure the bootloader to boot this new version on the next reboot.

There are some configurations as the following:

• --url: URL from the repository where to download the files SHA256SUMS, SHA256SUMS.gpg and the releases. There are some alias as dev, rolling and stable for the official SimpleK8s repository URL.
• --version: The version to download. By default will be the alias latest.
• --dry-run: Just do not write anything in the storage.
• --preserve: How many releases will be preserved. Maybe you wish to boot an order version.

To upgrade a SimpleK8s:

$ simplek8s-update update

To use the most experimental channel (there are more aliases as dev, rolling and stable):

$ simplek8s-update update --url dev

Maybe the file /usr/lib/systemd/import-pubring.gpg is so old (because you are using a very old SimpleK8s release) that the GPG keyring was changed from the official repository. You can skip the GPG verification as the next example:

$ simplek8s-update update --checksign=false

Self Update

The command simplek8s-update could be updated with new features and fixes. This subcommand will upgrade the command simplek8s-update itself.
