## Upgrading
### docker-compose
Docker-compose users should download the latest docker-compose file from [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BeryJu/passbook/master/docker-compose.yml). This includes the new traefik 2.3.
Afterwards, you can simply run `docker-compose up -d` and then the normal upgrade command of `docker-compose run --rm server migrate`.
### Kubernetes
For Kubernetes users, there are some changes to the helm values.
The values change from
```yaml
config:
# Optionally specify fixed secret_key, otherwise generated automatically
# secret_key: _k*@6h2u2@q-dku57hhgzb7tnx*ba9wodcb^s9g0j59@=y(@_o
# Enable error reporting
error_reporting:
enabled: false
environment: customer
send_pii: false
# Log level used by web and worker
# Can be either debug, info, warning, error
log_level: warning
```
to
```yaml
config:
# Optionally specify fixed secret_key, otherwise generated automatically
# secretKey: _k*@6h2u2@q-dku57hhgzb7tnx*ba9wodcb^s9g0j59@=y(@_o
# Enable error reporting
errorReporting:
enabled: false
environment: customer
sendPii: false
# Log level used by web and worker
# Can be either debug, info, warning, error
logLevel: warning
```
in order to be consistent with the rest of the settings.
There is also a new setting called `kubernetesIntegration`, which controls the Kubernetes integration for passbook. When enabled (the default), a Service Account is created, which allows passbook to deploy and update Outposts.
