Updater for Rust plugins?Solved
Hi,

I have been searching around posts (from 2017/18) and it seems there is/was an oxide plugin updater extension at one point? Is this still the case?  If so, can you point me where to find it?

Thank You
No, there have been checkers, but no actual updaters. I would discourage against blindly updating plugins though. Plugins cannot update plugins, but extensions can.

When we release uMod though, there will be a manager to check and update plugins along with dependency handling.

Agreed.  Would always read the patch notes.

Seems, best way would to querry plugin folder, and from there go out to download and see if the one on file is newer/older than posted?

Powershell? any tips?

PowerShell would probably be easiest if you wanted to make something of your own. There are some external tools such as RSM (Rust Server Manager) that can handle this too.
Is there any requirement that in the .CS the app version be updated? Or is this at the author's descresion 
App version?
namespace Oxide.Plugins
{
[Info   "x.x.x.x"

Merged post

Figured it out. Made two powershell scripts one for plugins and one for oxide.

Seems like all that is needed for both is to copy and replace the files with newly downloaded ones. Correct? 
That's correct.
Thank You Wulf.
