Auto update bot AUR auto update

Automatically update the PKGBUILD on AUR when there is a new version of a package.

Warning

  • We have implemented the test mechanism but the documents haven't been updated yet.

Quick guide

  • Add AutoUpdateBot as a co-maintainer of your package on AUR.
  • Add the corresponding nvchecker configuration under config. You can locally test your newly added configuration with:
    python nvchecker.py config/path/to/the_added_package.yaml
    nvchecker -c nvchecker.toml -e the_added_package
  • (Optional) Write a custom update script to config/path/to/the_added_package.override to override bin/update-pkgver if necessary.
  • Create a pull request to submit your changes and pass the checks.
    • Remember to take a look at the check results.
  • Done. You can check the outputs of GitHub Actions if there is anything wrong.
    • It runs every day.
