Updater API Flow

Each binary provides an UpdateConfig, then calls run_update.

use a3s_updater::{run_update, UpdateConfig};

let config = UpdateConfig {
    binary_name: "a3s-tool",
    crate_name: "a3s-tool",
    current_version: env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION"),
    github_owner: "A3S-Lab",
    github_repo: "Tool",
};

run_update(&config).await?;
# Ok::<(), anyhow::Error>(())

UpdateConfig

run_update Steps

1. Detect the normalized platform target.
2. Fetch the latest release from the configured GitHub repository.
3. Parse the release tag as semver, allowing an optional v prefix.
4. Parse the current version as semver.
5. Stop when the current version is already greater than or equal to the latest.
6. Find a matching release asset for binary, version, OS, and architecture.
7. Download and extract the binary.
8. Replace the running executable in place.

When no matching prebuilt asset exists, the library prints a manual cargo install <crate_name> fallback and returns successfully.

Release Type

The exported Release type mirrors the GitHub response fields used by the updater: tag_name, optional body, and assets.
