Userscripts Updater: Occasionally Asked Questions

Occasionally Asked Questions

Q: How to use?
A: Install this script, then go and install the scripts you want to keep updated. Now just click "Update scripts" to check updates. Options include auto-check, compare changes and icons.

Q: How does it work?
A: When you click install button at the script's page, the updater records the necessary info to check for update.

Q: If I reinstall the updater will I lose track of the others?
A: No.

Q: At first install, will it detect my installed scripts?
A: No. Script 8877 seemed to do that. I never tried it, though.

Q: Why run the script in all sites?
A: To be notified about updates while browsing other sites (auto-search option). However, the scope can be changed to http://userscripts.org/* and it'll probably work.

Q: How about Userscripts.org having an updater feature?
A: Maybe its possible, but right now the task seems to fit nice in an userscript.

Codrin, if only the updater is listed you need to install the others. Before doing that, make sure you install the updater again.

reinstall should fix now (only need to reinstall the updater)

thanks all for detecting the regexp problem, with the API mentioned by Jesse the script will hopefully be stable for ever and ever :D

PS: I'm slowly rewriting my scripts to use xpath... lol... took me a long time, but I saw some charts showing the huge performance gain...

Broni, the site changed a little and affected the updater. You just need to install the updater again.
BTW, I included some code so next time the site change the updater will probably detect it and warn about it.

I wonder if Simon got rid of that problem...?

jerone, I never imagined this scenario... since those http requests are asynchronous operations running from a loop, I'm a little worried... also, maybe I should put a scrollbar on the options window, so one doesn't have to scroll a zillion times to click save...

Matrix, theres no way. I wonder how many scripts people have on updater :), my yellow window fill up about 1/3 of the screen, using 1280x1024...

khopesh, I store the script source using GM_setValue, only for diff purposes, if enabled at options. This script feature was included before the one at this site. The site's diff is better, but I thought just to wait a while.
To know when a script is modified I use 2 dates, the "last modified" and another stored when you click an install button. I've been testing on the versions page.
I rather not to use @version because its optional and many scripts don't use it.
I'll take some time to write on the bug tracker too :) .

hey thanks for the comment, Jesse kindly offered some sort of XML feed... I don't know about integration with the site, I wonder if state would be stored at the server or at the client(cookies?)...at server would probably be a problem for users switching machines... while Greasemonkey don't release an update feature I think per-machine state works nice.

the enable isn't default because the way it stores the sources as GM_values, some scripts have huge sources, and since its stored in a common shared file I thought to play safe with that... but also there are scripts that you trust and you might not want to have those sources bloating your prefs.js for nothing...

I'll think about the suggestions and review the whole CSS thing next free time I have.

I'll do that. Don't know about the connection problem... maybe some restriction to number of simultaneous connections being opened, or just packet loss. Sometimes when I'm browsing the web I get stuck and a refresh also is the solution.

shadybeatle, it will keep the info

ozzii, I'll do that. BTW, I installed Sylish and that style, I've played around with it and couldn't make my colors prevail, even with timeout suggested by jerone. But since its not a major functionality problem I hope we can live with it for now... as a "feature" :-)

oops, fixed the disappearing :)

I noticed some sites like Youtube won't let you do document.createElement when calling update on GM menu, so I tried to call createElement on tag body, which seemed to work there... rolled back now... hope gets stable for a while

ozzi, I'm using these rules, I don't know how its being overwritten:

a.USO_outdatedLink:link {color: #0088FF; text-decoration: underline;}

a.USO_outdatedLink:visited {color: #0088FF; text-decoration: underline;}
a.USO_outdatedLink:hover {color: #0088FF; text-decoration: underline;}

a.USO_outdatedLink:active {color: #0088FF; text-decoration: underline;}

jerone, should work now, just need to remove script from updater and reinstall

thanks all
