FreeTube nightly updater

An app that makes updating FreeTube from nightly build artifacts more automated by giving you a direct download link to the newest artifact.

There is a simple one-time setup for using this app:

  • copy config.sample.json to config.json in /rel/freetube_updater/config

  • fill in the three values in file

    • token is your GitHub personal access token. You can easily generate one in https://github.com/settings/tokens
      • I know this is inconvenient, but it takes just a minute or two and it's necessary, because GitHub doesn't allow downloading artifacts for non-logged users.
    • os value accepts win, linux or mac
    • format value depends on your os type
      • win accepts setup or portable
      • linux accepts portable or AppImage
      • mac accepts dmg

  • finally, you can start run script file or use command rel/freetube_updater/bin/freetube_updater start from the app root directory which will give you a download link for newest release of FreeTube
