Upgrade pykiteconnect

vijoeyz
I have following queries on upgrading pykiteconnect:
  1. How do I know what is the current version of installed pykiteconnect?
  2. Is doing - pip install --upgrade kiteconnect - enough to upgrade?
  3. Do I need to take specific care while upgrading?
  4. Just in case, if I want to downgrade, say, because something went wrong after upgrading, how do I do that?

    Yes

    Make sure your setup tool is updated to latest using pip install -U pip setuptools
    Just in case, if I want to downgrade, say, because something went wrong after upgrading, how do I do that?
    You can use the pip command to install any version of Kiteconnect package. Eg. pip install kiteconnect==3.8.1

    Thank you, @rakeshr

    I meant to know how to check the current version installed in my system so that I can revert back to it as mentioned in the last statement. However, I found out that I could just do that with pip like this:
    >pip show kiteconnect
    Name: kiteconnect
    Version: 3.8.1
    Summary: The official Python client for the Kite Connect trading API
    Also as per the documentation, I understand Python version 3.6.5, which is what I'm using, should be compatible with kiteconnect 3.8.2.
