Sorry, but why? This is just the 'lib'. Anyway, for lube-demo I just use github, works.. (was going to say great, but it could be easier, assembla is better).

Well, I don't have the webspace to do that, but I hope the first game using it will be released soon (as it isn't hard to implement).

[bartbes]

Oh, right, well lube-demo is now on githost. Thanks anyway.

I've ported Updater to work with LÖVE 0.6, and made various other changes that I think are an improvement.

However, I have not tested this with a real game, so I'm not sure if this version will work.

These are some of the changes I've made:

• Now produces and uses significantly less clutter files: only a .version that stores the current version as a string.
• Automanaged is now the default, the example main.lua included show how to avoid it: call Updater.selfcheck() in love.load().
• Fixed the 2.0 bug that automanaged games don't download the initial copy.
• This version doesn't download files that have been removed later on.
• Many improvements "under the hood".

Also, note that there is no love.system anymore, so lovers have to soft-restart the game themselves (or notify the player to restart the game)

I will release a new, improved, rewritten version soon.

In the mean time, I have updated my port:

Updater.love

Yay, new version

Highlights:

• Converted main table name to lowercase (Updater->updater), to conform to the convention used by Lua in general, and LÖVE in particular.
• Fixed updater.selfcheck() and everything it calls.
• Improved updater.dialog.
• Made the example act like an update was found.
• Files removed in an intermediate version and recreated in a later version are no longer removed after downloading them.

Error

Whoops.

This is what I get for not testing this with a server.

Fixed version:

Updater.love

This should work -- famous last words

I get the same error as above with the current version.

That's why my version is going to be better
