Upgrading

Upgrading Pattern Lab Node

To upgrade the Node version of Pattern Lab do the following:

1. Important: Make a back-up of source/ and config.json and your Gruntfile|Gulpfile.
2. Download the latest release of the Node version of Pattern Lab, or use npm update patternlab-node if you originally installed Pattern Lab via npm.
3. Restore files in source/ and config.json if needed.
4. Be mindful of whether you need to merge any customizations to config.json or your Gruntfile|Gulpfile

If you encounter trouble - make sure your npm devDependencies are up to date. Assuming you have the latest package.json file, you can delete the contents of ./node_modules and run npm cache clear before running npm install to pull down everything anew.
