dynious / versionchecker Goto Github PK

There's an issue with Reika's mods: VersionChecker says me that I have to update his mods while I'm getting the latest versions. The mods are DragonApi, Expanded Redstone, ElectriCraft, RotaryCraft and ReactorCraft. Here is a screen:

From: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/2091981-version-checker-auto-update-mods-and-clean?comment=72

Wow this version gave me a lot of updates, now I have to update them all, damn you!

Edit: Almost all of them are inacurate. Some dont recognize my current version and others tell me to update do dev-only.

The NEM json has a few odd conventions that need to be accounted for. When a mod is listed as dev-only, the 'version' and/or 'prevversion' will be set to 'dev-only' (there is also a rarely used 'beta-only'), and the development version is listed using the key 'dev.'

For simplicities sake, I'd suggest ignoring any mods with a version or prevversion that ends in '-only'.

If you want to attempt a more robust solution, here's an example of how I deal with these various quirks in order to build an RSS feed from the NEM data.

Hello!

Don't exactly know if this is my mistake or not, but apparently the changelog has big gaps between lines, which well... don't look nice (and also less fits in there - would be nice if the changelog windows was bigger(including width)):
http://puu.sh/9qggD/84fa33ea8c.png

When testing the update feature it successfully downloaded the mod, but it didn't delete the original one, likely because of permission or write access?

Sorry of the the issue spam :(

PLEASECHANGELATER is not a valid path heh

Whenever I update Thaumic Tinkerer it says the version I have is unspecified and that it needs to be updated when I have the latest version.

Currently the first sent message will be picked if both messages have a link for download. NEM messages should be lower priority.

Hey,

Just updated Refined relocation and struggled for a good 15 minutes trying to load minecraft and it failing. I later realised that it attempted to load two Refined relocation mods, the 1.0.6 and 1.0.5e editions.

The error i got was in the fml.preloadmods() function, i believe this is due to version checker not being able to delete the file in use previously, so version 1.0.5e persisted and crashed my client.

Could version checker forcibly remove the mod after minecraft closes?
Maybe encouraging forge to allow for more specific crash messages in preloading?
Possibly having version checker call a .bat .sh file which deletes the .jar of previously updated mods?

Regards,

Minyman60

when i update ae2 and start again (i have extracells2 addon for ae2) extracells2 is getting loaded before VersionChecker

the latest version of version checker for 1.8.9 is saying that i have to update JEI but the version that he want me to update is for 1.9

Im having a crash while minecraft is loading up with this mod. Multiple other mods are used as well.

It is telling me there is an update to Version Checker, It says it has updated but the console has this error.

when i update ae2 and start again (i have extracells2 addon for ae2) extracells2 is getting loaded before VersionChecker

Is it possible to add a mod to the watchlist? I noticed sometimes there are mods I really want the updater to monitor such as the mod Pokecube. Since these are mods that are not officially on the list it makes it hard to keep track of mods.

Hello! Awesome mod. Two mods that I'm using, though, say they need an update, but they are the latest version.

Micdoodle8 Core says " -> 3.0.11.333". I've triple checked, and i'm using that version.
Modular Forcefield System says "3.0-ALPHA-7 -> 3.0-Alpha-7". Seems like the all caps is causing a problem.

A fix for these would be greatly appreciated!

A whole new GUI that shows the list of the mods that is supported with mods with updates towards the top and the rest at the bottom kinda like the attached document (which is very rough and could use some improvement).

Is it possible to Support MediaFire Links? Media Fire has the Problem that it only has temporary links so it would be nice if this plugin can convert mediafire links to the direct download links on the fly.

This is my Version Checker-class:
https://github.com/TheOnlySilverClaw/Reforged/blob/8780e93d60647c99a3f3a0c9c522bcc9af70c567/java/org/silvercatcher/reforged/util/VersionChecker.java
The problem is, that Version Checker still thinks, there is an update available, there should be none.
But it doesn't show the mod name and so on.
The changelog however is shown:
Screenshots

Another question: When will this mod be available for 1.8.9? ^^

the version checker is saying that i have to update the more swords mod when i have the latest version on 1.7.10

When the icon is clicked with OpenEye installed it opens the OpenEye menu.

The game shows up with 36 updates even when i only have 1 or 2 mods out of date

see title

openeye 0.5
VersionChecker 1.1.1

Not sure if it is right to generalize this to all of linux, but it for sure does not work on Ubuntu 14.04, java 7_60.

I used the curse version checker IMC and for some reason its suggesting updating even tho the versions are the same, is this a bug, or did I forget something?

it would be nice if this mod checks for updates of mods from the previous minecraft version.
for exaple: "version checker" for mc 1.7.10 checks in the mods/1.7.2 folder for mods with an 1.7.10 version and update them in the mods/1.7.10 folder.

You easily can get GitHub releases info in JSON format using API link(like this).
If mod uses proper versioning(like v1.7.10-1.0.0), then you can get the tag with latest version for 1.7.2 and compare it with current version of a mod. And you can fetch the body of a release and use it as a changelog.
Also you can use the link to releases page as a download page one(if it wasn't set explicitly by a mod author).

The "!" mark button gets removed when agricraft 1.4.0 alpha is installed along with version checker 1.1.9.

Hi @Dynious

Was wondering if it was possible for you to add a blacklist in the cfg so it doesn't check a mod that is on that blacklist. Would be kinda handy if mod devs that forget to change the version in there mcmod.info file.

in forge 1.8-11.14.3.1450.

i'm guessing my forge version is too new for the mod, as the field is named something else in my version of forge than in yours.

I have flaxbeard steampower on my pack and when i was updating the pack, it showed me that fsp had an update. Went there through the "open webpage" button and it threw me at Steamcraft 2 mod, a completely different mod

I have the most recent version of version checker (1.1.5), but the button thats supposed to be on the left side isnt showing up. Here is my mod list: http://pastebin.com/9NEp8ZUw

See: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9117298/VersionChecker_1.png

Open Webpage button does nothing on Linux systems because oracle java does not make the java.awt.Desktop.Browse() function available when certain dependencies are not met. Can you please try to open the webpages via "xdg-open http://www.example.com/" in that case?

Currently if you double-click a mod to update it that doesn't support automatically updating and instead opt to not download it at that time.. it gets deleted.

Now imagine doing this with 20+ mods only to realize you don't remember which needed to be updated and now need to somehow figure out which were removed.

Maybe append .disabled to the filename of the mod instead? Or move it to another directory?

Appending .disabled to them would allow you to keep them where they are but have them display as disabled in MultiMC which is nice. (and users can simply "remove" in MultiMC or delete them manually)

It may seem a little silly but I seriously did not expect it to be so heavy handed and simply delete them. I had to check my fml log to see which mods loaded on start and get them back.

http://s018.radikal.ru/i522/1510/99/25b547e63b62.png
you could fix it?
I can not see the new version :(

for example to make under each other.
old version
lower than the new version.

When trying in 1.1.3 it works and I get prompted that there are updates available fro VersionChecker and my mod MoarSigns.
But when updating to 1.1.4 I get these two lines in the console:

[00:04:27] [Thread-9/WARN] [VersionChecker]: Version Checker Status for MoarSigns: MC VERSION NOT SUPPORTED
[00:04:28] [Thread-9/WARN] [VersionChecker]: Version Checker Status for Version Checker: MC VERSION NOT SUPPORTED

I'm using 1.7.10 and it doesn't matter what forge version that I use for 1.7.10
I'm using that same system as you are to show updates to my mod

I have a mod here and Version Checker tells me I can upgrade from "2.0.0-0" to "1.3.8-35" which is clearly an older version. Can you maybe fix detection for versionnumber-buildnumber schemes?
Note: Using 1.1.9 on 1.7.10 here. Note, this is when using non released builds.

Hi,

I've been trying for a while to use Version Checker for one of my mods, but with no success.

File hosted on Github: https://github.com/coolAlias/DynamicSwordSkills/blob/1.7.10/src/main/resources/versionlist.json

IMC sent during FMLInitializationEvent:
String link = "https://github.com/coolAlias/DynamicSwordSkills/blob/1.7.10/src/main/resources/versionlist.json";
FMLInterModComms.sendRuntimeMessage(ModInfo.ID, "VersionChecker", "addVersionCheck", link);

I don't see any messages in the log that my IMC was received and, if so, whether it can or cannot access that file.

I don't see any change in the main menu screen, either, even after making a build of my mod with a lower version than in the online file.

It would be helpful, I think, to always show the button and allow viewing of mods which are using Version Checker, with an error notice for those that are not working properly.

Anyway, is it possible to host the file on Github like that, or will I need to figure something else out?

http://puu.sh/9t6V2/3d89d7ef7a.png
Too lazy to make a pull request my self.

Okay I love the mod I do but frequently it tells me about an update that is not actually an update and I request a feature that allows me to ignore an update. I don't want to ignore all updates from mods just sometimes it suggests an update that is not actually the latest version of a mod and it causes me anxiety. Also it wastes time when I check and I already have the latest version.

How do you add buttons to the main menu?

Hey Chaps,

Every time i launch minecraft im greeted one update every single time. Version checker wants me to upgrade to version rv0-stable-10 of Applied energistics 2, When i'm running version rv1-Alpha-15.

Version rv1-alpha-15 is a beta/alpha release. Its not recommended to be used. Which its why the author has not included it in the version checker list of releases. Or has incorrectly included it.

I think if we add a tag "beta product" then mod authors can still release suggested versions via version checker, but can also release non suggested versions via the beta products.

Users of version control would be notified of products in the same way as they do now, but a beta releases tick box would have to be selected to see later versions

I hope someone finds this useful and implements it, as being an end user of version control ( Currently not developing anything ) I'm blighted with false updates.

Regards,

Minyman60

All mods should thread their version checkers to prevent delaying MC from loading, its possible that because of this, the InterModCom might not the be delivered until after the Menu appears. ( sent via sendRuntimeMessage )

If this happens the new version indicator does not appear.

With some simple regular expressions you might be able to pull the supported Minecraft Version from the filename. I usually name my mods like FloodLights-MC1.7.10-0.3.5-40.jar. MC1.7.10 is the mc version, 0.3.5 the mod version and 40 is the build number on my jenkins. It should be rather easy to grab the MC version from that. MC[0-9].[0-9].[0-9]{2} or something like that should match the version then just add in groups and you got the versions in 3 variables.

got this crash, when i clicked the update button, but the specific mod got "null' as the new version
