Project manager: Doug Hennig

VFPX Deployment automates the steps needed to include your project in the Thor Check for Updates (CFU) dialogue so you can easily install your project and update to the latest version without having to clone your project's repository or manually download and extract a ZIP file.

This project is part of VFPX.

External information

See the great article Anatomy of a VFPX Project by Doug Hennig. It shows the setup of VFPX related data and Thor in two chapters.
Since version 1.1.08538 this tool merges both, but the article gives a good idea.

Run the tool stand alone:

Download the zip, expand the folder and run relative to this folder Procs\Thor_Proc_DeployVFPXProject.prg.
Note: While this is not installed via Thor, Thor still needs to be running to provide access to FoxBin2Prg and zip.

Run this tool from Thor:

Download via Thor Check for Updates and run from Thor.
