github-store

A simple package to be used as a GitHub store for go-update which does not prefix release tag with "v"

go-update is a go package for auto-updating system-specific binaries via GitHub releases.

The current store used by this package automatically prefix the release tag with "v".

Package thegomachine/github-store provides the same API but without prefixing release tag.

Installation

$ go get github.com/thegomachine/github-store

Usage

So previously your code might have looked like this:

import (
    "github.com/tj/go-update/stores/github"
    update "github.com/tj/go-update"
)

func main() {
    project := &update.Manager{
		Command: "foo",
		Store: &github.Store{
			Owner:   "foo",
			Repo:    "bar",
			Version: version,
		},
    }
    release, err := project.Store.GetRelease("1.0.0")
    // will try to find the GitHub release v1.0.0.
 }

With this package:

import (
    "github.com/thegomachine/github-store"
    update "github.com/tj/go-update"
)

func main() {
    project := &update.Manager{
		Command: "foo",
		Store: &github.Store{
			Owner:   "foo",
			Repo:    "bar",
			Version: version,
		},
    }
    release, err := project.Store.GetRelease("1.0.0")
    // will try to find the GitHub release 1.0.0.
 }
