mdict.koplugin 0.2.0

The plugin now updates itself: it can check for new releases, download them and install them.

New

• Search → Settings → MDict dictionaries → Updates shows the installed version and has Check for updates.
• Automatic checks, at most once a day, offer each new version when it comes out. They only run when the device is already connected (Wi-Fi is never turned on for them), stay silent otherwise, and can be turned off with Check for updates automatically. An offer can be skipped for that version.
• An update is checked against the size and SHA-256 that GitHub lists, unpacked next to the plugin, and moved in when KOReader next starts, so the running plugin is never half updated. After the restart, a notification says which version is now installed.

Install

This is the first version that can update itself, so install it by hand once:

1. Unzip mdict.koplugin-0.2.0.zip into koreader/plugins/, replacing the mdict.koplugin folder.
2. Restart KOReader.

Later versions install from the plugin's menu. On Android, restart by exiting KOReader and opening it again.
