GitJarUpdate
Presents a popup at the start of a program when there is a new Github Release. Then restarts the updated program.
Usage
build.gradle
plugins {
// get git infos into Manifest
id 'com.palantir.git-version' version '0.12.3'
}
repositories {
//load repo from git via gradle
maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
}
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.APN-Pucky:GitJarUpdate:0.0.3'
}
task fatJar(type: Jar) {
manifest {
attributes 'Implementation-Title': project.name,
'Implementation-Version': versionDetails().lastTag,
'Main-Class': 'YOUR.MAIN.CLASS.HERE'
}
baseName = project.name
from {
configurations.runtimeClasspath.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) } }{
//disable signing from 3rd party
exclude 'META-INF/*.RSA', 'META-INF/*.SF', 'META-INF/*.DSA'
}
with jar
}
At the start of your program run in your Java code:
Update.loadUpdate("PROJECTNAME.jar", "GITHUBUSER", "GITHUBPROJECTNAME");
An example with github actions publishing jar files is .
Note
The Git/Manifest info is not (correctly) included if the code is run from an IDE instead of a built jar. Therefore an Update-Popup will show.
