I managed to get the update checker plugin running (didn't really do anything, it started working with the latest library versions from gtk-osx). So I might add it to the next macOS release.

The URL https://geany.org/service/version/ which the plugin uses only returns the latest Geany release version and not the actual build. I was forced to make a new macOS release when e.g. a new macOS release broke something in GTK and I needed to re-package the release with the latest GTK libraries containing the fix. Geany itself was the same though so the update checker wouldn't see such a change. What I could imagine we could do is to send the current version and the build date to the server (which can be seen on the About page of Geany, such as `built on or after 2024-06-21`) and I think it would actually be best to leave the whole logic of whether the update is available or not on the server - it would just return `TRUE` or `FALSE` based on the info we send from the plugin. This would probably require a new URL, such as `https://geany.org/service/version/v2`. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/issues/1314#issuecomment-2194935826 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
