Support_Updater automation

[TheBlackParrot]

Only applies to those of you who host your addons on your own servers (so very few I imagine :( )

I managed to get practically everything automated down to a file edit ("version" in version.json) and uploading source files. It's all directory-structure based.

It looks good! The only critique might be that the "id" field isn't a valid repository field (it's only for version files), but having it in there doesn't affect anything.

I actually meant to take it out, was using it to debug/test.
probably just going to leave it

Im a bit confused sorry. What exactly does this do? I host with my own addons so what does that mean for me?

nono this is for modders who host their addons (aka provide download links to their addons) on their own site. TBP just published some code that automates some of the busywork that accompanies uploading new versions and correctly pushing the new version through Support_Updater

Oh i see, Sorry.
