Apps.json version not updating

1

I initially installed India_compliance (develop branch), and installed it in on a site.

After that, I uninstalled it from the site by bench uninstall-app command and then removed the apps/india_compliance app as I wanted to have a different version on the site.

So I get-app again, and then installed in on my site.

But my apps.json was not updated, it still shows version : 16.0.0-dev

How to fix this?

the default version is 16.0.0-dev

use below command to get the desired version

bench get-app https://github.com/resilient-tech/india-compliance.git --branch version-15

@mohitchechani Please read once what I said above, I have no trouble installing a specified version, but I have trouble in updating the version in apps.json file, though everything seems to work perfect after I am getting the desired version, but how to update in apps.json in the background while updating it.

I’m also wondering how to update apps.json and my web searches led me here…

Following @mohitchechani’s advice:-

$ cat development/frappe-bench/sites/apps.json| jq '.frappe'
{
  "resolution": {
    "commit_hash": null,
    "branch": null
  },
  "required": [],
  "idx": 1,
  "version": "15.48.1"
}
$ bench get-app https://github.com/frappe/frappe.git --branch develop
A directory for the application 'frappe' already exists. Do you want to continue and overwrite it? [y/N]: N
Do you want to reinstall the existing application? [y/N]: N
$ cat development/frappe-bench/sites/apps.json| jq '.frappe'
{
  "resolution": {
    "commit_hash": null,
    "branch": null
  },
  "required": [],
  "idx": 1,
  "version": "15.48.1"
}
$ cd development/frappe-bench/apps/frappe
$ git branch -vv
* develop           32bc18b5c3 [upstream/develop] Merge pull request #32486 from sokumon/pin-click
  version-15        12ef6c318f [upstream/version-15] chore(release): Bumped to Version 15.68.0

I already have all remote branches and the full commit history, so I don’t want to overwrite it. Reinstalling a site completely wipes the database; is reinstalling an app relatively safe? I don’t want to lose data just because apps.json is out-of-sync with my current working tree!

bench update and bench migrate don’t appear to update apps.json either…
