Private Kodi build installer/updater
The main functionality is working. There are some features that still need to be completed.
- Edit the "update_url" setting in "resources/settings.xml" to match your domain that you upload the server scripts to
- Zip addon (Make sure the top level folder "script.idolpx.installer" is in the zip and the addon files are inside it.)
- Install addon in Kodi with "Install from zip file" option
- Configure all of your other addons the way you want them
- Go to the "idolpx Installer" settings (Advanced) then select "Backup Current Configuration"
- When the backup is complete, the archive will be in your Kodi data folder witha matching '.md5' file
- Upload the zip file to the "kodi" folder on your server
- Edit the "version.php" file in the "kodi" folder on your server to match the archive name and set the "_md5" value that is contained in the matching ".md5" file
You can have a current config and a test config on the server. If the "Select Test Configuration" option is set in the addon then it will use the test config specified in the "version.php" file. That way you can check everything out before promoting it to the current config.
