openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix Gateway LaunchAgent not updated on non-git installs [3 comments, 2 participants]

Fix Plan

To fix the issue, we need to update the LaunchAgent to point to the new entry point index.js and ensure that openclaw update reinstalls the LaunchAgent.

Steps

• Update the LaunchAgent configuration to point to the new entry point:
  • Edit the LaunchAgent plist file (usually located at ~/Library/LaunchAgents/your.agent.plist)
  • Update the ProgramArguments key to point to the new entry point index.js
• Modify the openclaw update script to reinstall the LaunchAgent:
  • Add a step to the update script to reinstall the LaunchAgent using launchctl
  • Example code snippet:

# Reinstall LaunchAgent
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/your.agent.plist
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/your.agent.plist

• Verify that the LaunchAgent is reinstalled correctly by checking the launchctl list output.

Verification

• Run launchctl list to verify that the LaunchAgent is loaded and pointing to the correct entry point index.js.
• Test the application to ensure it is working as expected.

Extra Tips

• Make sure to update the openclaw update script to handle any future changes to the entry point.
• Consider adding a check to ensure that the LaunchAgent is installed and loaded correctly before starting the application.
