Hallo,
I'm using some scripts to automate FF and TB download.
I noticed that my script does not get the latest TB - it would retrieve
60.0, not the current 60.2.1.
Just to follow up on this (from the bug report discourse)...
Here's what i believe the Mozilla developers (Thunderbird) suggest is "The One True
Way"[1] to get the Firefox/Thunderbird versions:
(i include JSON parsing pipe chain to extract)
curl -s https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/firefox_versions.json | perl -0777 -MJSON -e
'$t=from_json(<>); print "$t->{'LATEST_FIREFOX_VERSION'}","\n";'
curl -s https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/firefox_versions.json | perl -0777 -MJSON -e
'$t=from_json(<>); print "$t->{'FIREFOX_ESR'}","\n";'
curl -s https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/thunderbird_versions.json | perl -0777 -MJSON -e
'$t=from_json(<>); print "$t->{'LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_VERSION'}","\n";'
That number can be variable replaced into a pull-down URL like:
https://download.mozilla.org/?product=thunderbird-${tbird_version}&os=${OS}&lang=${LANG}
[1] At least until it isn't anymore (sigh)
