Auto update

Shell Script that pulls the latest Linux artifact and replaces it with the current one you have installed.

#!/bin/bash

# Set the API URL
API_URL="https://changelogs-live.fivem.net/api/changelog/versions/linux/server"

latestVersion=$(curl -s "$API_URL" | jq -r '.latest')

latestDownloadUrl=$(curl -s "$API_URL" | jq -r '.latest_download')

statusCode=$(curl --write-out %{http_code} --silent --output /dev/null $latestDownloadUrl)

if [[ "$statusCode" -eq 200 ]]; then
  echo "Successfully executed request to the artifacts API"

  echo "Removing old alpine fx.tar.xz"
  rm -rf alpine/ fx.tar.xz
  echo "Latest FXServer build: $latestVersion"
  echo "Installing the last build:"
  wget --no-verbose $latestDownloadUrl
  tar xf fx.tar.xz

else
  echo "There was a problem reaching the artifacts API"
fi
