Automatic version check

By default, the mcdc CLI performs a version check once every 24 hours. When you run the mcdc CLI and a new version is available, a message is displayed which indicates that the version of mcdc CLI that is available for you to upgrade to. This version check requires an internet connection.

  • When needed, configure a proxy to access the internet:

    Linux

    ./mcdc config set proxy PROXY

    Windows

    mcdc.exe config set proxy PROXY

    Replace PROXY with the IP address of the HTTP or HTTPS proxy. For example, 127.0.0.1:7777 or socks5://127.0.0.1:1234.

  • Deactivate the automatic version check by setting the disable_version_checking option:

    Linux

    Windows

    mcdc.exe config set disable_version_checking true
