GithubUpdater

A simple Python script that allows you to update your own programs via github releases.

How to setup:

1. Download setup.py
2. Run setup.py and follow the prompts
3. A file called updater.json will be generated, make sure you bundle this config with your program in the root, alongside updater.py, which is automatically downloaded after running setup.py
4. Simply run updater.py and it will check for new updates. If it is run for the first time, it will download the latest version of your program.

If you want your main program to contain update checking functionality, then simply add from updater import check_update to your code (if in python), and then run the check_update() function somewhere in your code.
