GuestThis is really annoying for scripting purposes, if you pull the Master repo which is the cleanest URL, it might not be a tagged release version.
ex. https://github.com/company/free-software/archive/master.zip

GuestTried this in the past, but it didn’t work:
https://gist.github.com/steinwaywhw/a4cd19cda655b8249d908261a62687f8
curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/jgm/pandoc/releases/latest \
| grep "browser_download_url.*deb" \
| cut -d : -f 2,3 \
| tr -d \" \

Guestit seems to depend on what you are downloading, if it’s a single asset you can use
https://github.com/owner/repository/releases/latest/download/ASSET.ext…. but for the entire repo zip file, I can’t say.

September 2, 2024 at 10:14 am #26386Guest@Amber, seems Reddit agrees?
Download asset from latest release on github

GuestThat’s the point, it makes no sense.
For a WordPress plugin like:
https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/releases/latest/download/...The version number changes every time. How to grab the latest plugin zip file URL?
like
https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/releases/latest.zipseems impossible…

Guestthis should really not be so complicated lol

Guestinterestingly,
https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/releases/latest/download/latest.zip
will redirect to:
https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/releases/download/2.0.1/latest.zip
but its a “Not Found” after that.

Guestalso:
https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/archive/latest.zip
will redirect to:
https://codeload.github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/zip/latest
and then “404: Not Found”

Guesthttps://stackoverflow.com/a/76804894/1718491
a bit heavy but:
echo "fetching latest version"
latest_version=`
curl https://github.com/$owner/$repo/releases/latest --verbose 2>&1 |
grep Location |
sed -e "s|.*/v||"`echo "version: $latest_version"
# if the version number is in the file name, append it
# example:
# file=somefile-$latest_version.extlink="https://github.com/$owner/$repo/releases/download/v$latest_version/$file"
echo "$link"
curl -o "destination/folder/$file" -L "$link"

Guestlatest_tag=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/swagger-api/swagger-ui/releases/latest | sed -Ene '/^ *"tag_name": *"(v.+)",$/s//\1/p')
echo "Using version $latest_tag"
curl -JLO https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/archive/$latest_tag.tar.gzkinda nice approach without needing

GuestIt’s truly ridiculous that we must parse JSON in the GitHub API for this, instead of them just having some easy 302 redirect or something for every repo on their platform?

GuestGITHUB_PLUGIN_BLACKLIST_LATEST_TAG=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/releases/latest | sed -n 's/.*"tag_name": *"\([^"]*\)".*/\1/p')
GITHUB_PLUGIN_BLACKLIST_DOWNLOAD_URL="https://github.com/littlebizzy/plugin-blacklist/archive/refs/tags/${GITHUB_PLUGIN_BLACKLIST_LATEST_TAG}.zip"and then
ss_wget /tmp/plugin-blacklist.zip "${GITHUB_PLUGIN_BLACKLIST_DOWNLOAD_URL}"Works great for now!
