MiniVSS(Version Sharing System)

How is it done?

• Maintainer creates repository with compiled (now only onefile) program versions
• Every version is signing with private key
• Generated folder loads to web-server
• Server URL and public key are sharing inside app
• Users download versions from server
• After signature checking user`s program is replaced with new one

Installation

You can install MiniVSS from PyPI:

python -m pip install mini-vss

Usage

Maintain simple repository:

$ cd APP_FOLDER
# Create .vss folder with all needed maintainer staff
$ mini_vss init --remote SERVER_URL

#  Platform - independent version pack for specific end user configurations
$ mini_vss add_platform PLATFORM_NAME PLATFOM_COMPILED_FILE_PATH

# Fix current compiled file as version
$ mini_vss fix VERSION_NAME 

# Review all platfroms and versions
$ mini_vss show 

# Creates client_config.py which should be used by client app
$ mini_vss generate_client_config

$ rsync -a .vss/platforms/ SERVER_PATH # or any other way to copy your`s platforms to server

For further configurations directly use .vss/conf.json

Developing is in process 😅

Client upgrading example:

import mini_vss
import client_config

v_client = mini_vss.VSSClient(client_config.PLATFORM_CONFIG)
v.client.upgrade_to_latest()

Easy sharing to you!
