Aspire version update notifications #4112
Description
Aspire 9.4 adds a latest version checker. What about this content:
Aspire version update notifications
When an Aspire app starts, it checks if a newer version of Aspire is available on NuGet. If a new version is found, a notification appears in the dashboard with the latest version number, a link to upgrade instructions, and button to ignore that version in the future.
The version check runs only when:
- The dashboard is enabled (interaction service is available)
- At least 2 days have passed since the last check
- The check hasn’t been disabled via the
ASPIRE_VERSION_CHECK_DISABLEDconfiguration setting- The app is not running in publish mode
Updates are manual. You need to edit your project file to upgrade the Aspire SDK and package versions.
Up to you where the best place to put this is. It's kind of related to the dashboard (because that's where the notification is displayed) but I feel it is more related to the app host. The dashboard is just where the notification is displayed.
Also include a screenshot of the update notification.
