GitHub Updater Demo

Update custom plugins from GitHub, public or private repos.

Visit site

This tool provides a demonstration and reusable code for adding update functionality to custom plugins. It is designed for developers who host their plugin code on GitHub and need a reliable way to push updates directly to their sites. The solution handles the communication between the site's admin area and the GitHub repository, checking for new versions and facilitating one-click updates.

  • Automatic Update Checks: Integrates with the site's built-in update system to check a specified GitHub repository for new plugin versions.
  • Private Repository Support: Can securely connect to private GitHub repositories using a personal access token for controlled distribution.
  • Customizable Metadata: Allows configuration of plugin icons, banners, and changelog display within the site's admin interface for a polished user experience.
  • Centralized Token Management: Offers an optional settings panel to store and manage GitHub access tokens securely in one place, useful for multiple plugins.
  • Flexible Branch Configuration: Supports updating from any branch, not just the default, allowing for different development or staging workflows.
