Eclipse Version Scraping

Since Eclipse does not provide a convenient (or I did not find one) way to get informed when a new version is released it is quite difficult to keep my unofficial packages up-to-date.

So I wrote this script to scrape the eclipse.org page and set it up as a cron job to get notified, one a new version of Eclipse releases.

Usage

dart bin/main.dart [options] recipient

Where options are one of the following:

  • -h or --help: prints a help and exits
  • -f or --file: specify a file, ./version.txt is used by default

The recipient is the person that gets mailed, if a new version is released.
