snap: Update a package to another channel (track, risk, or branch).
$ snap refresh ${package_name} --channel=${channel}
try on your machine
This command is used to refresh/update a specific package (identified by ${package_name}) on a Snap package manager system. The package manager will check if a newer version of the package is available in the specified Snap channel (${channel}) and update it if necessary.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
snap
: This is the command-line tool for managing Snap packages in systems that support Snap package management.refresh
: This subcommand is used to refresh packages, updating them to newer versions if available.${package_name}
: This is a placeholder for the actual name of the package you want to refresh/update. You should replace it with the actual name of the package you want to update.--channel=${channel}
: This option is used to specify the Snap channel from which you want to update the package. Snap channels are different release channels or branches for packages, such as stable, beta, edge, etc. By specifying '--channel=', you should replace ${channel} with the desired channel name.
Therefore, when you run this command and replace the placeholders with actual values, it will refresh/update the specified package to the latest available version from the specified Snap channel.
