#Getting Started

TypeRocket provides an API for adding your own automatic updates system. This API can be used if TypeRocket is installed as an MU plugin or if TypeRocket is installed as root.

The updaters check for a new version every 12 hours.

#Plugins

The slug must match the name of your plugin.

new \TypeRocketPro\Updates\PluginUpdater([
    'slug' => 'my-typerocket-plugin',
    'api_url' => 'https://example.com/plugins/my-typerocket-plugin/'
]);

The required endpoint format is JSON.
