NoahsMyBro Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'm not sure where to even ask this, figured I'd try here first. Within my org we use an RMM tool (remote monitoring/mgmt) and I've crafted a script to install Paint.net to managed PCs. At the moment my script grabs the installer from a network share, and relies on me to download the installer. So if an updated version is released, I must go download the latest version, tweak the filenames in the script (or I could just rename the downloaded installer), etc... Is there some URL I could point to, or a method I am ignorant of maybe, to always download whatever is the latest version? That way I wouldn't need to manually rejigger things every so often. Thanks, Steve J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Brewster Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 There's no web service to directly query for the latest version or a download link directly to it, but ... you could probably just scrape this page, http://www.dotpdn.com/downloads/pdn.html. That official download page itself hasn't really changed or moved in a long time. (I'm not promising that it won't, obviously) Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahsMyBro Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Thanks Rick. I'm afraid I'm not clever enough to have my script automatically figure out how to download whatever happens to be linked to from that page. Oh well, figured there was no harm in asking. Thanks all the same. -- Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
