[Feature] Functionality to update apps in V2

Open ImCarpet opened this issue 7 months ago • 4 comments

Request

The older version of Feather had a pop up when there was an update available for an app. I noticed it’s not there anymore in the 2.0 version. Any plans to bring that back?

In v1 version, this function is just a test function, which seems to have never been realized. After opening it, no matter whether it is the latest or not, it is an annoying update pop-up window.

@ImCarpet There isn't any full-proof way to have this, since many piracy repos can have duplicate identifiers and such. This makes it very hard to destinguish between apps and could cause some overlap in which apps we would need to actually attempt to 'update'. For now, we never implemented any functionality to update apps in V2, until then we need to think of a proper way of actually dealing with updates rather than using V1's way of doing it.

Keeping this opened because it is planned, just not a priority.

you're in a repo hell atm but tbh we could just design a repo structure that has to have a unique id that is seperate from the bundle id and just allow the update feature for that type of app repo, would however increase the repo support hell so yikes
