Testing updater locally

[elanzini]

I am trying to test locally the Updater functionality. I have my server running locally and I have this configuration for the updater:

    "updater": {
      "active": true,
      "endpoints": [
          "http://localhost:8080/releases/{{target}}/{{current_version}}"
      ],
      "dialog": true,
      "pubkey": "YOUR_UPDATER_SIGNATURE_PUBKEY_HERE"
  }

I am using debugging to inspect the Network tab from the Tauri application and I don't see any GET request being sent to that endpoint. My local server is also not logging anything. Is it because of the missing pubKey? Is only https allowed?

Nevermind, I wasn't specifying the right route in my local express server.
Changed from:

app.get("/releases/", async (req, res) => {
  // nothing here
});

to

app.get("/releases/*", async (req, res) => {
  // works
});

Apologies for the noise, I wasn't able to delete this discussion item.
