NaturalReaderFree recipes not downloading current version #114

I noticed the NaturalReaderFree recipes are downloading version 14, and the current version of the software is 16.

Fun. The link is no longer populated on their site with an actual download. Instead some javascript sets the href.

Best case scenario: @n8felton will find some feed it uses for checking for updates after he installs it on his machine.

Worse case scenario: we curl https://www.naturalreaders.com/comfiles/software/js/software.js and look for a pkg on a line that's not commented out.

Looks like it is an Electron app using the Squirrel framework for updates.

chelming commented 4 years ago

can you find a URL for where it's getting the updates from?

vmiller commented 4 years ago

I haven't been able to yet :-) I'll poke at it as time permits.

I threw Charles Proxy on a test machine with NaturalReader installed. The update check is hitting http://5iusryxinl.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com and is passing binary data. Probably a dead end unless I'm missing something.

we've gotten nowhere with this, but that URL doesn't exist any more. I still think (unfortunately) that the current best scenario is scraping software.js for a pkg that's not commented out.
