GitHub Release Checker

Small Nuget package for getting the finding the latest release on GitHub and comparing a provided version with.

  1. Version checking is based on Semantic Versioning
  2. GitHub tags need to match the version (v is removed from the beginning)
  3. Only the most recent 10 releases are checked
  4. Built to be used with Dependency Injection

Examples

Adding the services to a project

Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(e.Args)
.ConfigureLogging(...)
.ConfigureServices(services =>
{
    services.AddGitHubReleaseCheckerServices();
})
.Start();

Checking the release

var version = FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);

var newerGitHubRelease = _host.Services.GetRequiredService<IGitHubReleaseCheckerService>()
    .GetGitHubReleaseToUpdateTo("MattEqualsCoder", "TestRepo", version ?? "", false);

if (newerGitHubRelease != null)
{
    var response = MessageBox.Show("A new update was found! Do you want to go to the release page?", "New Update",
        MessageBoxButton.YesNo);

    if (response == MessageBoxResult.Yes)
    {
        var url = newerGitHubRelease.Url.Replace("&", "^&");
        Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo(url) { UseShellExecute = true });
    }
