Informations about the package envato-update-checker

Envato Update Checker

Envato Update Checker is a library for WordPress theme and plugin developers. When you use this library, it downloads when plugin or theme update is available.

HOW IT WORKS?

It's just a PHP class and asking for some informations about your plugin while creating an instance.

First of all you need to create a JSON file. This file will contain latest version string of your plugin. Let's say your plugin's name is Hello World and hewo is slug. Your remote JSON file will be like this:

{
    "hewo":"1.1.2"
}

This will tell to library, latest version of the hewo plugin is 1.1.2 . Library will compare it with your installed plugin's version and warns users if any updates available.
