Update

acuity update

For Homebrew-managed Python (PEP 668), use:

acuity update --pipx
# or
acuity update --venv ~/venvs/acuity

Released Versions (PyPI vs Git Tags)

PyPI may lag behind git tags. If acuity --version does not match the latest tag, install from the tag directly:

pip install -U "dc-acuity-cli @ git+https://github.com/DallasCrilleyMarTech/acuity-scheduling.git@v1.3.0#subdirectory=acuity-cli"
hash -r
acuity --version

If your shell still shows an older version, check the active binary and reinstall:

which acuity
pip uninstall -y dc-acuity-cli
pip install -U "dc-acuity-cli @ git+https://github.com/DallasCrilleyMarTech/acuity-scheduling.git@v1.3.0#subdirectory=acuity-cli"
hash -r
acuity --version
