We have been asked why we prefer soar update
over appimageupdatetool
or zsync
In our testing, we found almost all appimages that have zsync updateinfo embedded, use the full bandwidth regardless
Soar Update
is not only better, but actually checks for version prior to wasting any bandwidth along with comparing Checksums
Below, you can verify it yourself
soar add "vnstat#bin" "vnstatd#bin"
#Run this in another terminal, call it Terminal 2 vnstat --live
#Get the Size of your AppImage (NOTE this somewhere) du -sh "/path/to/your/appimage" #Run appimageupdatetool (while still keeping Terminal 1 & 2 Running) appimageupdatetool "/path/to/your/appimage"
