m1452700576/dsh-app-updater

A DSH web plugin: a sidebar button (icon only) that checks whether DSH has a newer release and, when one exists, auto-downloads the installer and opens it - with a live progress bar and a minimizable panel.

Features

• Sidebar icon-only button (tooltip "Check DSH update"), red dot when new version found.
• Probes known desktop-packaging repos (or your own githubRepo) for a newer release that ships a macOS installer (.dmg/.pkg/.zip).
• Auto-downloads the installer to ~/Downloads (or downloadsDir) and runs open.
• Live download progress (streaming bytes + percent), indeterminate bar when unknown.
• Panel can be minimized to a floating bubble while downloading.
• Supports multiple update sources (GitHub, npm).
• Security checks: confirm before download, private IP blocking, SHA-256 checksum.
• GitHub mirror support for fast downloads in mainland China.
