Add free download manager

Open archit9169 opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Free Download Manager (FDM) is an alternative to internet download manager (idm) with integrated bit torrent downloader and some other nice stuff.

I tried to create the feed file myself but I am still having trouble following the instructions. I tried using 0Publish-Win but it created a zip archive on my system and that implementation felt a little janky. If there is some guide with an example of how to proceed to make template and watchfile then please direct me to there.

0template and 0watch only work for applications that offer archives instead of installers for download.

For applications like Free Download Manager creating a feed usually entails downloading the installer, running it and then creating an archive with the newly installed files. Since doing this manually for every new version is rather cumbersome I'm not sure if I'll be able to provide a feed for FDM here.

Currently there's no comprehensive tutorial for how to create a new feed/template/watch-file triple. I'll see to adding that to the docs.
