Flutter desktop updater plugin supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux. It can download and install updates for your application from GitHub, GitLab, local file systems, and S3.

More...

2.3.3-dev.1 #

  • Previewed Windows protected-directory install elevation. When a scheduled update targets a directory that is not writable from the current process, the Windows native helper now requests UAC elevation before replacing the app, and reports an install error if elevation is cancelled.

2.3.2 #

  • Fixed Linux zip staging so Unix permission bits are restored from the update archive, preserving executable bundle files before native relaunch.
  • Added a Linux native helper fallback that restores the target executable bit after replacement and rolls back if relaunch would be impossible.
  • Documented Linux zip permission expectations for apps that produce update artifacts outside release publish.

2.3.1 #

  • Added release publish --dart-define support so build-time Dart environment values are forwarded to flutter build.

2.3.0 #

  • Added optional release notes support for update UIs through releaseNotesUrl, releaseNotesLoader, releaseNotesState, and loadReleaseNotes().
  • Added public release notes models that keep the simple { "data": [{ "type", "message" }] } format supported while allowing richer sections, summaries, and item metadata.
  • Added a built-in Material release notes bottom sheet and wired the ready-made update card to show a release notes action when notes are available.
  • Added example custom release notes UIs for inline panels, side sheets, and changelog pages.
  • Fixed the release notes bottom sheet so its first load starts after the route has built, avoiding build-time listener notifications.

2.2.0 #

  • Added opt-in update diagnostics sinks with redacted log formatting for app-owned lifecycle logs.
  • Added app-owned install recovery markers and post-relaunch failure reports for native install handoff.
  • Added explicit native helper diagnostics log paths for macOS, Windows, and Linux helper events.
  • Added Windows and Linux CI smoke diagnostics artifacts for failed or explicitly requested diagnostics runs.
  • Documented the native helper diagnostics and recovery support flow in the README and product docs.

2.1.4 #

  • Added release publish --mandatory so generated app-archive.json items can mark updates as mandatory while keeping the default optional.
  • Fixed Windows staged updates to refresh the uninstall display version metadata after installation.

2.1.3 #

  • Fixed Windows release publish builds so the CLI invokes flutter build windows --release through shell-aware process resolution.

2.1.2 #

  • Fixed notarized macOS release publish so nested Flutter frameworks are signed before the outer .app, then verified through notary, stapler, and Gatekeeper before packaging.
  • Added user-facing release publish smoke coverage for Windows, Linux, and opt-in notarized macOS CI so release smoke tests exercise the same publish command users run.

2.1.1 #

  • Hardened update selection so app-archive.json entries must match the downloaded release.json version, build number, platform, and channel.
  • Hardened release validate to reject hosted descriptor identity mismatches before accepting a published update.
  • Rejected top-level staged macOS .app symlinks and rechecked the staged app inside the native install helper before replacement.
  • Pruned Windows and Linux whole-directory targets before copying the staged update, preventing stale files from surviving replacement.

2.1.0 #

  • Added the high-level dart run desktop_updater:release publish flow for building, packaging, manifest generation, manual upload packages, provider upload, and hosted validation.
  • Added dart run desktop_updater:release validate to simulate an older installed version, select an update, fetch release.json, download the artifact, and verify length and SHA-256.
  • Added release publish upload providers for manual, S3-compatible storage, SFTP, FTP, and custom commands.
  • Added ready-made update UI surfaces, manual update check result helpers, and screenshots for the stock card, sliver, dialog, and custom state-driven UI.
  • Added explicit macOS notarization opt-in for release publish --platform macos --notarize and macos.notarize: true.
  • Added publishing documentation for minimum setup, provider config, macOS production trust, and Windows/Linux production release options.

2.0.1 #

  • Added dart run desktop_updater:migrate to preview and apply safe 1.x to 2.0 migration edits, plus manual findings for typed state, old CLI commands, low-level APIs, and platform publishing work.
  • Documented the automated migration flow in the README and 1.x to 2.0 migration guide.

2.0.0 #

  • Promoted the zip-first 2.0 release contract: app-archive.json points to release.json, and release.json points to one verified zip artifact.
  • Added shared Dart update checks, artifact verification, safe staging, typed update state, and zip-first package/verify CLI entrypoints.
  • Added native install scheduling for macOS whole-app replacement, Windows locked-file replacement, and Linux directory replacement with rollback-focused smoke coverage.
  • Added macOS hosted update smoke hooks, explicit unsigned macOS release-mechanics opt-out, and documentation separating release mechanics from production-trusted publisher gates.
  • Added Windows and Linux Release CI gates for build, native tests, integration tests, and update smoke.
  • Made 2.0 buildNumber metadata optional in release indexes, release descriptors, and the zip-first package CLI.

2.0.0-dev.5 #

  • Fixed version comparison so archive build metadata is not treated as newer when the installed app does not expose a build number.
  • Added explicit allowUnsignedMacOSUpdates opt-out for owners who need unsigned macOS Release update mechanics while keeping signed, notarized, stapled updates as the default production-trusted path.
  • Made 2.0 buildNumber metadata optional in release indexes, release descriptors, and the zip-first package CLI.

2.0.0-dev.4 #

  • Added skipInitialVersionCheck to DesktopUpdaterController so apps can initialize the controller without immediately checking for updates.
  • Kept skipCheckVersion as a deprecated alias for the same behavior.

2.0.0-dev.3 #

  • Added support for Flutter versions without build metadata in update checks and release tooling.
  • Kept build-number based ordering for existing archives while allowing semantic version fallback when shortVersion is omitted.
  • Fixed Windows ProductVersion parsing so versions like 1.2.3 no longer throw, while malformed values like 1.2.3+ still fail.

2.0.0-dev.2 #

  • Added macOS release manifests, content-addressed gzip payloads, and ditto full ZIP fallback archives for .app bundles.
  • Added macOS staged app verification for SHA-256 hashes, file modes, symlinks, unexpected files, bundle identifiers, Team IDs, code signatures, Gatekeeper, and stapler validation.
  • Changed macOS releases to publish artifact directories instead of raw .app trees or ZIP-only updates.
  • Reworked the update pipeline around verified temporary staging directories.
  • Added native macOS and Windows install helpers that wait for the app to exit before replacing files.
  • Added hash/length verification for downloaded files and normalized archive paths for Windows-hosted files.
  • Added support for removing files that no longer exist in the target version.
