A simple standalone library to enable automatic updates to your git hosted WordPress plugins or themes.
Description
This is version 2.0.0 and contains a breaking change from 1.5.x.
This library was designed to be added to your git hosted plugin or theme to enable standalone updates.
You must have a publicly reachable site that will be used for dynamically retrieving the update API data.
- Git Updater is required on a site where all of the release versions of your plugins and themes are installed.
- All of your plugins/themes must be integrated with Git Updater.
- You must be using Git Updater v12.9.0 or better.
Git Updater is capable of returning a REST endpoint containing the plugins_api()
or themes_api()
data for your plugin/theme. You will pass this endpoint during the integration.
The REST endpoint format is as follows.
- plugins -
https://my-site.com/wp-json/git-updater/v1/update-api/?slug=my-plugin
- themes -
https://my-site.com/wp-json/git-updater/v1/update-api/?slug=my-theme
Installation
Add via composer. composer require afragen/git-updater-lite:^2
-
Add the
Update URI: <update server URI>
header to your plugin or theme headers. Where<update server URI>
is the domain to the update server, eghttps://git-updater.com
. - Add the following code to your plugin file or theme's functions.php file.
An example integrated plugin is here, https://github.com/afragen/test-plugin-gu-lite
FWIW, I test by decreasing the version number locally to see an update.
