Electron auto updater with channels example

This example running on Linux only, but must work with Windows or MacOS correctly

Try it

Version is 0.0.1 from package.json. Change version in package.json 0.0.2 and build. For beta channel add prefix -beta in package.json version (0.0.3-beta/0.0.3-beta.1) and build again. This example working with 2 channels - stable and beta

Use it

# Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/borisbutenko/electron-updater-channels.git
# Go into the repository
cd electron-updater-channels
# Install dependencies
yarn install
# Run server
yarn serve
# Build stable
yarn dist
# Build beta
yarn dist:beta

Go to folder /server/releases/stable or /server/releases/beta and run the .AppImage application

P.S. For correct work, so that autoUpdater does not replace the startup file, I advise you to move the launcher to any other folder
