Allow installation from GitHub to WowUp #6

Closed raptormama closed 2 years ago

raptormama commented 2 years ago

Unable to install via WoWUp: "A valid zip file is required to be in the release in order for WowUp to download it". Can this be added to the github page?

See https://github.com/BigWigsMods/packager for details (hah!).

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have no reason to support WoWUp.

I certainly have annoyances with CF/OW but it's functional.

There's no reason to require a zip file for WoWUp anyway if they're going to allow inputting repos directly. They can do the legwork. Asking authors to do more work that reduces traffic through the channel that compensates them seems silly to me.

I'm not going to try to block it, but supporting it myself? Seems unlikely.

@Xuerian you could also just cross-host on wago.io which also has author compensation and uses the same packaging system as curse iirc. In most cases it's as simple as just linking your github account and adding the addon.

I've updated the WoWInterface upload. WoWup should also be able to pull from that.
