nodejs-latest-linker

An application to create latest-X symlinks at https://nodejs.org/download/release/ after each new release

Also works for iojs.org.

Symlinks created by nodejs-latest-linker when run are:

• latest-v0.10.x and latest-v0.12.x: special cases for old branches, pointing to the latest release on each line
• latest-v_X_.x (e.g. latest-v6.x: where X is a semver-major version starting at 4 for Node.js (1 for io.js), pointing to the latest release on each line
• latest-ltsname (e.g. latest-boron: where ltsname is the LTS codename, e.g. "argon" or "boron", pointing to the latest release on each LTS line
• latest: pointing to the release with the highest semver, any line
• node-latest.tar.gz: pointing to the source tarball of the release with the highest semver, any line, exists for legacy reasons

The same directory symlinks are also created for API docs, here: https://nodejs.org/download/docs/
