Feature request: Option to copy binaries from one itch project to another #170

Open rhys-vdw opened 5 years ago

rhys-vdw commented 5 years ago

I've recently written a script that will download all binaries from one page and move them to another. The use case is that we have a page for internal testing ("staging") and then a release page ("production").

It's quite slow to download the whole build and re-upload it. It would be great to be able to do this in a single command that tells the Itch server to do this copy without transferring to my computer. Not sure if this is supported by Itch API or even a usage of Itch that you'd like to support.

That's something I want to support at some point, see existing discussions like https://github.com/itchio/butler/issues/34

Oh nice. Perhaps I should be using "back-channels" for this instead of separate projects? My thought was that there is just one "launch" button in the app. But maybe this deserves more exploration...
