Functions ¶

func Apply ¶

func Apply(asset *Asset) error

Apply downloads the release asset and replaces the current binary.

func CheckInBackground ¶

func CheckInBackground(currentVersion string, w io.Writer) func()

CheckInBackground performs a non-blocking update check and prints a notice if a newer version is available. Call from root command PersistentPreRun.

Returns a function that waits (up to a short timeout) for the background check to finish. The caller should defer this in main() so the goroutine has time to save its state before the process exits.

func CompareVersions ¶

func CompareVersions(current, remote string) bool

CompareVersions returns true if remote is newer than current. Both should be semver strings like "v0.1.0" or "0.1.0".
