A nodejs script for updating the just-install registry links to the latest releases
Make sure you have the latest NodeJS version installed on your system. Download just-install-updater from Github, and npm install from the directory where the files are located.
Placing a Github API access token in a file named githubAuth at the root of the development folder is also recommended (but not essential). This will ensure you avoid hitting the rate limit of 60 requests per hour for unauthenticated API calls.
From the install directory:
node jiup path [options] [packages]
path: Absolute path to the just-install development folder.packages: An optional space separated list of packages to update. By default, all packages are updated.options: A space separated list of options.-c: Commit: If updated packages are found, a prompt will offer the possibility to commit the updated registry file to Git.-ns: No Save: Changes to the registry file are not saved.-f: Force: Packages that would otherwise be skipped will be processed. The following safety checks are disabled:- Skip if the web version number is not higher than the registry version number.
- Skip if new version not found for all architectures.
-v: Verbose: Outputs additional info, best used for debugging a single package.
Finally, starting the script with the following commands will perform a special task
-hor-helpdisplays basic help.-tododisplays the just-install entries for which no update rules exist.
