Updating stax2aws

From time to time, new features are added to stax2aws. To make use of these features, you need to update the application to the latest version.

Check stax2aws version​

To check which version of stax2aws you're running, simply issue the --version argument at run time:

$ stax2aws --version
stax2aws version 1.4.1 (2021-10-21)

Updating stax2aws on Windows​

To update stax2aws on Windows, you should retrieve the latest release from the Releases page. Most users should retrieve the stax2aws_version_windows_amd64.zip file.

Download and extract the zip file, replacing the existing stax2aws.exe binary on your file system.

Updating stax2aws on macOS or Linux​

Updating stax2aws on macOS or Linux using the Homebrew package manager is very straightforward. Issue the following command in your shell:

$ brew upgrade stax2aws

Homebrew tap trust​

Homebrew now requires users to add 3rd party taps or formulas to a 'trusted' list. If you installed stax2aws before this was a requirement, you'll need to explicitly add a trust for homebrew to allow updates to stax2aws.

$ brew trust --formula stax-labs/homebrew-taps/stax2aws

More information is available on the Homebrew documentation page.
