Set up

Updating

New Docket versions are listed on Releases, with what changed in the changelog. Your tasks are kept when you update.

#Windows

Download the new docket-<version>-windows-x64.zip and unzip it.
Close the Docket app.
Run the new install.ps1 the same way as the first time (right-click > Run with PowerShell).
When it asks Docket is already connected to an account. Connect again (new tokens)?, answer N.

The installer replaces the programs, keeps your data and settings, and updates Vikunja to the latest release. To pin Vikunja to a version, add -VikunjaVersion v2.7.1 (any tag from Vikunja's releases).

Tip

A backup is made every night, but before a big update you can make one straight away: Task Scheduler > Docket > Vikunja backup > Run. See backups.

#Docker server

In the folder with compose.yaml:

Shell

docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

To stay on known versions, set DOCKET_VERSION (the connector and Docket web) and VIKUNJA_VERSION in .env, then run the same command after changing them. Read Vikunja's release notes before a major-version jump, and make a backup first.

After upgrading the connector, ChatGPT may not see new tools until you remove and add the connector again (why).

#Android

Install the new APK from the download page over the old one (or update from the Play Store once Docket is listed there). You stay signed in.

#AI connector on macOS or Linux

Download the new docket-mcp for your platform from Releases and replace the old file. Restart the AI app that uses it.
