Struct GitHubSource 

pub struct GitHubSource { /* private fields */ }

Release source backed by the latest GitHub Release of a repository.

Assets are matched by target marker in the filename, and each installer asset must have a sibling .sig or .minisig asset with the same base name.

Implementations

impl GitHubSource

pub fn new(owner: impl Into<String>, repo: impl Into<String>) -> Self

Creates a GitHub-backed release source for production use.

Anonymous requests are subject to GitHub API rate limits and only work for public repositories.

pub fn with_auth_token( owner: impl Into<String>, repo: impl Into<String>, token: impl AsRef<str>, ) -> Result<Self>

Creates a GitHub-backed source that authenticates requests with a personal access token.

This enables private-repository releases and higher GitHub API rate limits. The same token is propagated to release-asset and signature downloads handled by the updater.

pub fn with_client( owner: impl Into<String>, repo: impl Into<String>, client: Octocrab, ) -> Self

Creates a GitHub-backed source from a custom Octocrab client.

Use this when you need a preconfigured GitHub client with custom middleware, base URLs, or authentication strategy.
