Electron-builder: autoUpdater.setFeedURL & autoUpdater.getFeedURL don't work

[Applelo]

• Electron Builder Version: 20.28.1

• Electron Updater Version: 3.1.1

• Target: Windows

I try to use the function _autoUpdater.setFeedURL_ to change updater default url but nothing happen.
autoUpdater.setFeedURL({ "provider": "generic", "url":'http://mywebsite/application/client'});

And when I try to use the function _autoUpdater.getFeedURL_, the function return _Deprecated. Do not use it_.

I too got the same issue...

• "electron-builder": "^20.8.2"
• "electron-updater": "^4.0.0"

updater doesn't use new config? Or just getFeedURL doesn't work (and should not)?

[jayarjo]

From what I see in the source getFeedURL is not meant to work (anymore perhaps?)

 getFeedURL(): string | null | undefined {
    return "Deprecated. Do not use it."
  }

@mrbbm, @Applelo have you solved your problem with setFeedURL?

[Applelo]

@develar The updater doesn't use the new config and use instead the config set in package.json. I would like to use getFeedUrl to see if the change was setted.

@jayarjo I didn't solve the problem because I'm not longer part of the project where I needed to use different FeedUrl.

[jayarjo]

@Applelo you could use checkForUpdates() or getUpdateInfoAndProvider() directly (undocumented for some reason) to see details about current config and more. Both return a Promise though (that's probably a reason for deprecation of getFeedURL, which apparently was sync).

Tôi cố gắng sử dụng chức năng _autoUpdater.setFeedURL_ để thay đổi url mặc định của trình cập nhật nhưng không có gì xảy ra.
autoUpdater.setFeedURL({ "provider": "generic", "url":'http://mywebsite/application/client'});

Và khi tôi cố gắng sử dụng hàm _autoUpdater.getFeedURL_ , hàm trả về _Không được chấp nhận. Không sử dụng nó_ .

why is the documentation not up to date?
