go-selfupdate is a Go library. go-selfupdate has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

go-selfupdate detects the information of the latest release via a source provider and checks the current version. If a newer version than itself is detected, it downloads the released binary from the source provider and replaces itself. Two source providers are available: - GitHub - Gitea. This library started as a fork of A few things have changed from the original implementation: - don’t expose an external semver.Version type, but provide the same functionality through the API: LessThan, Equal and GreaterThan - use an interface to send logs (compatible with standard log.Logger) - able to detect different ARM CPU architectures (the original library wasn’t working on my different versions of raspberry pi) - support for assets compressed with bzip2 (.bz2) - can use a single file containing the sha256 checksums for all the files (one per line) - separate the provider and the updater, so we can add more providers (GitHub, Gitea, Gitlab, etc.) - return well defined wrapped errors that can be checked with errors.Is(err error, target error).
