auto upgrade scripts?

Hello list,

Is anyone aware of a (light-weight, easy-to-use)
auto-upgrade framework for python scripts?

I find it hard to believe no one has wanted this before,
yet google doesn't find too much relevant stuff.

Thanks,
Best regards,
Stefaan.

Auto-upgrade from what to what?

Interesting question.

In my case I want my program to check for (e.g.) bug-fix releases on
some location (network drive or ftp), and if available, allow to
automatically download and install them.
Kind of like the AutoUpgrade functionality in .net (*shudder*) ;)

Best regards,
Stefaan.

Since you mention .NET and didn't state otherwise, I'm assuming
Windows platform? You should probably take a look at Inno Installer
with web update wizard:

No, I need both linux and windows. I guess this means
I'll have to make something myself ...

Thanks, and best regards,

Have you looked into PEAK's setuptools?

http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools
http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall
http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PythonEggs

That might be a reasonable place to start.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
