Version 0.9.0 (2024-12-19)

Release Notes

This release adds support for XDG_CONFIG_HOME as the location for install
receipts. If this variable is set and the receipt is located within this path,
it overrides the default location of $HOME/.config (Mac and Linux) or
%LOCALAPPDATA% (Windows). Install receipts will be created in this path when
running installers created by dist 0.27.0 or later if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set.

This release also adds infrastructure to support app renaming when running as
a library. There are two new features:

• It's now possible to load receipts for alternate app names, not just the one
  that a given instance of AxoUpdater was instantiated for. This can be done
  by running AxoUpdater::load_receipt_for(app_name).
• It's now possible to change the name a given AxoUpdater instance is for.
  This can be done by running AxoUpdater::set_name(app_name). This can
  override the name that was loaded from an app receipt.

For example, if your app is changing from oldname to newname, you might set
up AxoUpdater like this:

// Instantiate the updater class with the new app name
let mut updater = AxoUpdater::new_for("newname");

// First, try to check for a "newname" receipt
// (this might be a post-rename release)
if updater.load_receipt_as("newname").is_err() {
    // If that didn't work, try again as "oldname"
    if updater
        .load_receipt_as("oldname")
        .map(|updater| updater.set_name("newname"))
        .is_err()
    {
        eprintln!("Unable to load install receipt!");
    }
}
