RepoDNA v1.4.1: Preparing Native WinGet Installation and Upgrades for Windows

Описание и применение

RepoDNA v1.4.1 автоматизирует создание манифестов WinGet и предоставляет GitHub Actions для их отправки в каталог Microsoft, упрощая установку и обновление приложения на Windows.

Задача

Developers need a streamlined process to package and publish RepoDNA for the Windows Package Manager (WinGet) community catalog.

Результат

Automated manifest generation and GitHub Actions workflow reduce manual effort for publishing RepoDNA to WinGet, enabling easier installation and upgrade paths for Windows users.

Рабочий процесс

• Generate manifest files for SanskarIN.RepoDNA and SanskarIN.RepoDNA.CLI for x64 and ARM64
• Calculate SHA‑256 hashes from release artifacts
• Run optional GitHub Actions workflow to submit manifests to Microsoft
• Once accepted, users can discover, install, and upgrade via winget commands

Доказательства

The release introduces manifest generation for two separate Windows packages: SanskarIN.RepoDNA and SanskarIN.RepoDNA.CLI.

Источник

The v1.4.1 release generates the necessary manifest files, but publishing on GitHub does not automatically make a package available in Microsoft's WinGet catalog.

Источник

SHA-256 hashes are calculated from the actual release artifacts rather than entered manually.
