Auto update check, checks for updates to base system + packages and sends email alerts
-
@chrcoluk It's not a full Git repo, just a Gist as of now. The link should be there but it's https://gist.github.com/luckman212/5e69ecf04e000ace47eb8f760b71e160 in case you need. The revisions are visible if you need to refer to the previous version.

@luckman212 Thanks, I also see now the link in first post, sorry its obscure as text was same colour.
I confirm it works fine on 2.8.0, both email and cli output work also.
-
It works great! Thanks so much for all your work on this!
-
I'm still on 24.11 and I tried this script to see if it would show me that 25.07 is available, but it didn't catch that. I got some other things though.
-
@mikethiessen Confirmed the behavior you're seeing. I've got a working fix I am testing now, hopefully will push an update tomorrow or Sundat with a more robust check method that properly handles this.
-
Just wanted to reiterate that I put it into a note under Status → Notes, so that the code stays with the gateway, even, if I have to reinstall from a backup. It’s not my idea, but I thought, it’s worth disseminating.
-
@DominikHoffmann If you're going to install a package, you might as well try the Filer package which can store the code and restore it to the correct location as part of the XML backup.
-
@luckman212 Hey, that Filer works great, thanks for the tip. And your Package Check, too! Thanks for all your work.
-
Yeah sorry about the delay on getting the new update script out. That's why e.g. the current script isn't detecting 25.07.1 etc.
I have it almost ready, just had a busy few days here. Should be out real soon now.

Quite sure the current script notified me on 25.07.1.
