Cordova Plugin AutoUpdate

Cordova plugin for automatically updating app assets (JS, CSS, etc.).

How it works

Plugin

The plugin is configured with apps that should be automically updated. When the app starts or is re-activated, it will:

  1. Check local storage
  2. Check static assets (from www/ folder)
  3. Determine latest versions
  4. Send them to the server
  5. Download newer assets (if necesarry) and store them in local storage
  6. Load/inject the latest versions of JS/CSS

Server

This auto update plugin requires a back-end for retrieving the latest assets. It will send the local versions to the back-end (GET request) and check if new assets should be downloaded:

http://127.0.0.1:9001/?v[css/main.css]=0.1.0&v[js/main.js]=0.1.0

The server can then respond with newer versions:

{
	"js/main.js": {
		"url": "http://127.0.0.1:9001/release/js/main.0.1.1.js",
		"version": "0.1.1"
	}
}

Usage

  1. Install plugin: cordova plugin add https://github.com/TapmeMedia/cordova-plugin-autoupdate.git
  2. Set up server
  3. Configure plugin
  4. Build and run app
