IkonliBrowser: How should downloads be handled?

Opened this issue · 6 comments

Ikonli's release has been updated, ikonli-browser now posts ZIPs and native packagers

https://github.com/kordamp/ikonli/releases/tag/12.3.0.EarlyAccess

How many entries and which ones should be listed as download buttons?

I've removed the download to the ikonly browser for now.

This was the content in the downloads:

  {
    "id": "ikonlibrowser",
    "name": "Ikonli Browser",
    "tags": "icons, library, demo, application",
    "downloadType": "APPLICATION",
    "personIds": [
      "a.almiray"
    ],
    "createdOn": "2021-06-02",
    "modifiedOn": "2021-06-02",
    "files": [
      {
        "name": "ZIP for Linux",
        "url": "https://github.com/kordamp/ikonli/releases/download/early-access/ikonli-browser-early-access-linux.zip",
        "fileName": "",
        "package": "ZIP"
      },
      {
        "name": "ZIP for Mac",
        "url": "https://github.com/kordamp/ikonli/releases/download/early-access/ikonli-browser-early-access-mac.zip",
        "fileName": "",
        "package": "ZIP"
      },
      {
        "name": "ZIP for Windows",
        "url": "https://github.com/kordamp/ikonli/releases/download/early-access/ikonli-browser-early-access-windows.zip",
        "fileName": "",
        "package": "ZIP"
      }
    ],
    "tipIds": [
      "ikonli"
    ]
  },

@FlorianKirmaier Why remove? Why not update to the latest file names such as ikonli-browser-12.3.0.EarlyAccess-osx-x86_64.zip?

I didn't found the new downloadlinks initially.
Guess I was waiting for someone to tell me the new link, thank you!
I've updated it yesterday.
But we probably need a more maintainable solution - so I keep it open for now.

Thanks! I opened this issue as ikonli-browser provides lost of options (currently 8!) and I suppose there may be some preferred over others.

We could also just point to the "releases" page on the GitHub repo instead of a direct download link.
