I would appreciate it if you're willing! At the moment it's not possible to update the addon through the GitHub repo.

To add some additional information/context:

With Curse shutting off its API to WoWUp, it would be great if you could release the addon in an additional place for those who may wish to use a different Addon Manager than Curse's.

You could upload properly formatted .zip folders to the releases on GitHub (BigWigs did this, and has released a utility to help with the process https://github.com/BigWigsMods/packager), or go a step further and integrate with WowUpHub, or add it to Wago, or to WowInterface. Thank you for your consideration.

A relevant post from the WoWUp Discord:

"For addon authors: I’ve been contacted by several WowUp users wanting me to add my addon to WowUpHub or Wago. Who do I need to speak to about this?

For the WowUpHub, reach out to any of the mods or Zakrn and provide the Github or Gitlab link to your addon. We will check to make sure it is setup so WowUpHub can detect it. Here’s a guide on setup so you can check for yourself: https://wowup.io/guide/wowup/hub

If it is setup with a zipped folder of the addon itself, Zakrn will connect it to the WowUpHub. Once that is done, nothing else is needed on your part for that connection to remain other than you need to make sure when you update your addon on GitHub to do same setup. From 1 hour of you updating your addon it will hit the WowUpHub’s servers for people to download/update.

To add your addon to Wago, go to this website - https://addons.wago.io/auth/login - you will need to sign in to your BattleNet account or GitHub account. If you sign in with your Github account, you will be able to choose from the available GitHub repositories to upload from. If you sign in with your BattleNet account follow the prompts to upload your addon in its zipped format. If you aren’t sure if everything is setup correctly for Wago, they have provided a how-to documentation webpage that you can use - https://docs.wago.io/#introduction . If you have questions that are not answered you can reach out to Jayow, QartmisT or via Wago's contact form - https://addons.wago.io/contact"
