Monitorcontrol: Continuous Integration & Deployment

[the0neyouseek]

This issue is to simplify the debug and release process :

• [ ] Add a ci service to compile and deploy the new releases to github.
• [ ] Add an auto-update feature (with options to enable/disable the auto check for new releases) with something like @macmade/GitHubUpdates

I think an auto-update feature would be awesome!
I can look into implementing this if you want.

I'd suggest the following things to be in there:

• Automatically look for updates on app launch
• Add a button "Check for updates..." to the menulet
• Add a setting to enable/disable checking for updates on launch

Is there a specific CI service you'd prefer?
I'm personally only experienced with TravisCI but I'm fine with whatever.

@JoniVR Hi,
I've used CircleCI which works great with macOS/iOS but anything is fine for me (We could also add a bagde to the readme)

For automatic updates I've found this :

• https://github.com/macmade/GitHubUpdates
• https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle

CircleCI seems to be the more populair choice these days yes. I'm fine with that.

Yup, would be useful.

For automatic updates I've found this :

• https://github.com/macmade/GitHubUpdates
• https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle

I wasn't aware of GitHubUpdates before, I've seen Sparkle before. I think Sparkle is generally more used and more supported, however, it looks like GitHubUpdates is a lot easier to implement. So I'm not sure, I found a nice article on using sparkle with github though.

I also think that Sparkle is the safe bet here as GithubUpdates doesn't seem maintained 👍

For the CI part, if/when we get to it, Github CI seems to be pretty good now from my experience, maybe that would be a better option now?

[the0neyouseek]

💯% agree with that
