Overview

Package update implements self-update for the supermodel binary.

It fetches the latest release from GitHub, downloads the archive for the current OS/arch, extracts the binary, and atomically replaces the running executable.

Functions

func Check

func Check() (latest string, err error)

Check fetches the latest release tag and returns it. Does not download anything.

func Run

Run checks for a newer release and, if found, downloads and installs it. Returns (true, nil) when an update was installed, (false, nil) when already up to date, and (false, err) on failure.

Types

type Asset

type Asset struct {
	Name               string `json:"name"`
	BrowserDownloadURL string `json:"browser_download_url"`
}

Asset is a single release artifact.
