Fetch Latest Version of App

This API endpoint retrieves the latest version of a specific app based on the provided parameters.

Endpoint

GET /apps/latest?app_name=<app_name>&channel=stable&platform=linux&arch=amd64&owner=admin

Query Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
app_namestringThe name of the app you want to fetch
channelstringThe release channel (e.g., stable, beta)
platformstringThe platform (e.g., linux, darwin)
archstringThe architecture (e.g., amd64, arm64)
packagestringThe package type (e.g., deb, rpm, dmg)
ownerstringName of your admin user

Important Behavior

1. Channel Parameter

  • If channels have been pre-defined, the channel parameter becomes mandatory.

2. Single URL Redirection

  • If the response contains only one URL, the API will automatically redirect the request to download the build at that URL. This simplifies the process when only one option is available.

3. Flexible Responses Based on Parameters

The API responds dynamically based on the parameters you provide.

Example: Specific Parameters

GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&platform=linux&arch=amd64&owner=admin

Returns a list of available builds:

{
"stable": {
"linux": {
"amd64": {
"deb": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb"
},
"rpm": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.rpm"
}
}
}
}
}

Example: With Package Specification

GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&platform=linux&arch=amd64&package=deb&owner=admin

The API will redirect directly to the .deb package download URL:

https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb

Example: Omitting Platform and Arch

GET /apps/latest?app_name=secondapp&channel=stable&owner=admin

Returns all available builds under that channel:

{
"stable": {
"linux": {
"amd64": {
"deb": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.deb"
},
"rpm": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/linux/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.rpm"
}
}
},
"darwin": {
"arm64": {
"dmg": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/darwin/arm64/secondapp-0.0.3.dmg"
}
},
"amd64": {
"pkg": {
"url": "https://<bucket_name>.s3.amazonaws.com/secondapp/stable/darwin/amd64/secondapp-0.0.3.pkg"
}
}
}
}
}

Notes

  • The API provides all available builds depending on what is uploaded in the specified channel, platform, and architecture
  • Use specific parameters to narrow down results and get direct download URLs
  • The owner parameter is required for proper access control
  • Package types are automatically detected based on available files
