Functions

func AutoUpdate

func AutoUpdate()

AutoUpdate will periodically check for an update (a little over hourly) and install it unless the LM_DISABLE_SELFUPDATE env var is set. If the LM_GH_TOKEN environment variable is set this will check more often (closer to every minute.) The Token should have public_repo access. The token should include the `Basic ` prefix.

func MaybeUpdate

func MaybeUpdate()

MaybeUpdate will check for an update and install it immediately. If the LM_GH_TOKEN environment variable is set, it will be treated as a github personal access token, instead of anonymous access.
