Update endpoints

These are detailed separately for OSX and Windows.

When an update is not available, the update endpoints will return a 204 response. This happens when the version you are requesting is newer than or equal to the last available version on the server, but also when the appropriate file type is not present for Squirrel to be able to update your application (.zip for Squirrel.Mac, .nupkg for Squirrel.Windows).

Notes endpoint

http://download.myapp.com/notes/:version

Data endpoints

These are detailed separately here.

About using HTTPS

If you are using HTTPS on your server be sure to configure the base URL (appUrl) in config/local.js to use it as well since by default the download URLs will come from HTTP even if the update URL has been called from HTTPS.
