A convention-based version update notifier.

Usage

1. Add this add-on as you would any other:

> ember install ember-cli-new-version

1. Add a version file to your app, eg: ./public/VERSION.txt

1.0.0

1. Include the component in your view:

{{new-version-notifier}}

viola!

Options

• updateInterval - the amount of time, in milliseconds, to wait between version checks default: 60000 (one minute)
• versionFileName - the name of the file on the server to check default: /VERSION.txt
• updateMessage - the message to show to users when update has been detected. There are two tokens allowed in this string: {{newVersion}} and {{oldVersion}} which will replaced with their respective values. eg. (and default). "This application has been updated from version {{oldVersion}} to {{newVersion}}. Please save any work, then refresh browser to see changes."
• showReload - true shows a reload button the user can click to refresh. false hides the button. default: true

Custom Notification

By default the notification is styled as a Bootstrap Alert. If you want custom layouts or to use a different framework, then you can define your own markup for the notification.

{{#new-version-notifier as |newVersion oldVersion reload close|}}
  <div class="custom-notification">
    Reload to update to the new version ({{newVersion}}) of this application
    <button type="button" onclick={{action reload}}>Reload</button>
    <button type="button" onclick={{action close}}>Close</button>
  </div>
{{/new-version-notifier}}
