show that a release is available for linux when an .AppImage asset exists
with a published .AppImage asset the ERS Web UI should show an available release for linux
Only .deb, .tar.gz files are currently supported for Linux with poor handling of various OS flavors (all linux distros are treated as one with the only variation being between x86 and amd64).
How would you suggest that they are differentiated?
Also, I can't dedicate the time to add this myself, but would gladly review any PRs send my way :)
in theory an .AppImage should run on any linux flavour
Great, I more so meant in regards to .deb and the other flavour-specific package types.
How about having some ordered preference list? that is, if an .AppImage asset is available, show that one? Otherwise, show all the other available versions?
Have you looked at how the Visual Studio Code site does it at https://code.visualstudio.com/Download? That is, just let the user choose?
👍
Replacing all occurrences of .deb with .AppImage did the trick for me.
On the documentation its said that it supports .tar.gz, is that on the same place as where .deb is supported? That is, the filetypes object inside data-service.js?
That's the basic idea.
Super busy, will do this properly on Tuesday. Ping me if I don't.
Hi, was this issue fixed?
@tarjei I've done 90% of the work for this, but haven't been able to put in the time to wrap it up. might be able to next week

Locally 😛 I'll clean up whatever I have and push something to a branch tonight in case you want to take it the last mile :)
Sadly this will have to wait for the weekend :'(
I've just run into this too. @ArekSredzki I'm happy to spend some time on the branch tidying it up if you can push it.
Is this feature still open? According the electron-builder docs, AppImages is a suitable target for auto-update
