2.4 Check and Update

Before starting to use the qaskx-cli command first time or after a period of use it is recommended to check if there are any updates available. Updates can fix code errors, security vulnerabilities and provide enhancements.

You are always in control as to when you apply updates.

A check for more recent update versions is performed with the command:

qaskx-cli setup check

The results should be something similar to the below (excluding the leading timestamp):

              ______           ___           _______. __  ___ ___   ___
             /  __  \         /   \         /       ||  |/  / \  \ /  /
            |  |  |  |       /  ^  \       |   (----`|  '  /   \  V  /
            |  |  |  |      /  /_\  \       \   \    |    <     >   <
            |  `--'  '--.  /  _____  \  .----)   |   |  .  \   /  .  \
             \_____\_____\/__/     \__\ |_______/    |__|\__\ /__/ \__\
