CodePush retirement on March 31 2025 #8

Open mgscreativa opened 7 months ago

mgscreativa commented 7 months ago

HI @GSTJ and @deggertsen I've send an email to Microsoft support about what they will do about CodePush, ¿do you know about any other alternative without using Expo updates?

GSTJ commented 7 months ago

Sad news, indeed.

My recommendation is to self-host an Expo Server and use Expo Updates.

Codepush also provides self-hosting options during their departure, but these will be likely unmaintained, so they're not the best option.

Yup, I know about the open specification for Expo updates, but, ¿do you know of a PHP implementation?

deggertsen commented 7 months ago

I'm waiting for Microsoft to follow up with me on the codepush codebase. I'm not sure what they are planning, but they told me "Hello David, we will provide access to the CodePush repository, once the process is complete I will follow up."

So I'm waiting to hear back from them.

mgscreativa commented 7 months ago

Ok, lets use this issue to follow up this matter

deggertsen commented 7 months ago

I followed up with them again and they got right back to me saying "We still don't have an ETA, but I will follow up soon, thanks!"

Hi guys! seems CP server is already available https://github.com/microsoft/code-push-server/blob/main/api/README.md

I guess if you had the opportunity to set it up, I have an Ubuntu server but din't try to set up an instance yet

deggertsen commented 1 week ago

One thing to note with codepush is that the new react native architecture is not supported according to this thread: https://github.com/expo/config-plugins/pull/204#issuecomment-2472915034

It might be worth switching to your own EAS server rather than running your own CP server.

mgscreativa commented 1 week ago

Yup, that seems to be the right path.

Do you know a PHP implementation of the EAS server?

mgscreativa commented 1 week ago

Just to mention this guy has an implementation with Docker container included. Didn't tested it yet, but surely will.
