Update Check Service

Makes a request to updates.ghost.org to check for release & custom notifications. The service is provided in return for users opting in to anonymous usage data collection.

Usage

Check the UpdateCheckService's constructor JSDoc for the list of available parameters. This is how the service is initialized in Ghost:

const api = require('./api').v2;
const GhostMailer = require('./services/mail').GhostMailer;
const config = require('../shared/config');
const urlUtils = require('./../shared/url-utils');

const i18n = require('../shared/i18n');
const logging = require('../shared/logging');
const request = require('./lib/request');
const ghostVersion = require('./lib/ghost-version');
const UpdateCheckService = require('@tryghost/update-check-service');

const updateChecker = new UpdateCheckService({
    api: {
        settings: {
            read: api.settings.read,
            edit: api.settings.edit
        },
        posts: {
            browse: api.posts.browse
        },
        users: {
            browse: api.users.browse
        },
        notifications: {
            add: api.notifications.add
        }
    },
    config: {
        mail: config.get('mail'),
        env: config.get('env'),
        databaseType: config.get('database').client,
        checkEndpoint: config.get('updateCheck:url'),
        isPrivacyDisabled: config.isPrivacyDisabled('useUpdateCheck'),
        notificationGroups: config.get('notificationGroups'),
        siteUrl: urlUtils.urlFor('home', true),
        forceUpdate: config.get('updateCheck:forceUpdate'),
        ghostVersion: ghostVersion.original
    },
    i18n,
    logging,
    request,
    sendEmail: ghostMailer.send
});

// run the update check with 

updateChecker.check();
