Update the collector
Two commands. The Collectors page says when a newer version is out.
Updated 10 November 2026
The latest collector is 0.8.1. Each collector's page in Admin → Collectors shows the version it runs and says update available when there's a newer one.
Update
On the collector's machine:
cd wispmap-collector
docker compose pull
docker compose up -d
The collector stops cleanly, writes anything it hasn't sent yet to its buffer on disk, and the new version sends it after starting. Monitoring pauses for a few seconds.
Stay on one release line
To take fixes but not new versions automatically (for example 0.8.1 but not 0.9.0), set this in .env:
COLLECTOR_TAG=0.8
and update with the same two commands. Remove the line to go back to latest.
What changed
The collector's changelog lists every release. New features sometimes need a newer collector: the WISPMap changelog says so when they do.
