I would like to manually update the frontend to the newest version ahead of the next release. I’ve run pip uninstall -y home-assistant-frontend && pip install home-assistant-frontend==20190514.0, but when I restart Home Assistant, it still seems to be loading the old version. Normally on a update, I get the A new version of the frontend is available message with a button to reload. How do I manually trigger it to reload, as the button isn’t showing up?
try
pip install --upgrade home-assistant-frontend
(although no idea if this will break your install)
Is that any different than uninstalling and reinstalling?
slightly - have a look at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54278257/pip-install-upgrade-vs-pip-uninstall-then-install-is-there-ever-any-differenc
either way, it is possible that your install of HA doesn’t want/need/work with the later version of the frontend.
When I use PIP to check dependencies, there are frequently newer versions that HA wants. Including frontend.
Not sure this helps.
I’m up to date now, but I’ll try this next time.
