Installing QAppImageUpdate to your Project.
Since QAppImageUpdate is specifically made for Qt, All you need is Qt's development tools and only that, Nothing more and nothing less.
Dependencies
Optional Dependencies (Specifically for Torrent Update Feature)
Using the torrent feature is strictly for brave hearts because it's a bit hard to get everything linked and compiled correctly. Please don't try this if don't know what you are doing. For reference you can see how AppImage Updater compiles it.
Installing the latest release from github
Just execute this command on your project folder and everything will be done for you!
You must have git to do this , don't worry because most of the linux distro's must
have installed it already for you , if not install it!
$ git clone https://github.com/antony-jr/QAppImageUpdate
or to install it in your git project folder
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule add https://github.com/antony-jr/QAppImageUpdate
$ git submodule update
Even though AppImage is specific to linux, this library is cross platform.
