## Sharraxaad

Sparkling Appcast is a WordPress plugin. It allows you to use your WordPress site
to distribute your macOS App via [Sparkle](https://sparkle-project.org/). Sparkling
Appcast supports multiple channels (alpha, beta, …).

Sparkling Appcast exposes a new shortcode to display a list of app builds.

    ```
    [sappcast_display_builds sappcast_channel="{channel-id-or-slug}"]
    ```

Configure Sparkle to ingest the appcast.xml at https://your.site/wp-json/sparkling-
appcast/v1/appcast.xml. You will see something like the following XML.

    ```
    <rss xmlns:sparkle="http://www.andymatuschak.org/xml-namespaces/sparkle" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" version="2.0">
        <channel>
            <title>MyApp</title>
            <link>/wp-json/sparkling-appcast/v1/appcast.xml</link>

        </channel>
    </rss>
    ```

### Configuration

To get started name the application you want to distribute on your WordPress site.
You can find the settings page under the App Builds menu.

If you have multiple channels besides `stable`, you can should add them on wp-admin
under the App Builds menu.

### Usage

### Fastlane

We recommend you use the [`wp_sparkling_appcast` plugin](https://github.com/Usiel/fastlane-plugin-wp_sparkling_appcast)
to upload assets and create builds.

### Other

To distribute a new build, you must upload the asset (1), create a build draft (
2), after which you can finalize the build and publish it (3). Steps 1 and 2 are
typically executed by your build server, while step 3 is done by a human.

### 1. Uploading Asset

    ```
    curl --location "localhost:8088/wp-json/wp/v2/media?status=publish&title=MyApp%20${VERSION}%20(${BUILD_NUMBER})" \
        --header "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"myapp_v${VERSION}_${BUILD_NUMBER}.zip\"" \
        --header 'Content-Type: application/zip' \
        --user "${USER}:${APPLICATION_PASSWORD}" \
        --data-binary '@/path/to/asset.zip'
    ```

### 2. Create Build Draft

    ```
    curl --location 'localhost:8088/wp-json/wp/v2/sappcast_app_build' \
        --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
        --user "${USER}:${APPLICATION_PASSWORD}" \
        --data '{
            "meta": {
                "sappcast_app_build_version": string,
                "sappcast_app_build_number": int,
                "sappcast_app_build_min_system_version": string,
                "sappcast_app_build_attachment_id": int,
                "sappcast_app_build_changelog": string,
            },
            "sappcast_channel": int,
            "status": "draft"
        }'
    ```

### 3. Publish Build

The user may now go to “App Build” on wp-admin and publish the draft after verifying
the build. After publishing the build will appear on the relevant appcast (`/wp-
json/sparkling-appcast/v1/appcast.xml`).
