Summary

  • Update version from 7.0.1 to 7.1.4
  • Update download URL from Google Cloud Storage to DigitalOcean Spaces

The vendor (Incredible Bee) has moved their download hosting. The old URL returns 404:

  • Old: https://storage.googleapis.com/incrediblebee/apps/Renamer-7/Renamer.zip (404)
  • New: https://incredible-bee-honeycomb.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/apps/Renamer-7/Renamer.zip (working)

The new URL is linked from the official download page at https://renamer.com (via redirect from https://incrediblebee.com/download/renamer-7).

Note: The livecheck URL (github.com/incbee/renamer-7-releases) also returns 404. The vendor appears to have removed their GitHub releases repo. This may need a separate fix to find an alternative livecheck source.

Looking at the 7.1.4 app, it still checks the latest-mac.yml file from the GitHub repository that was removed. I didn't see any up-to-date version information on the website (only links to old versions), so we may be out of luck until upstream releases a new version that fixes the updater by checking a different source. In the interim time, it seems like our only options are to use the ExtractPlist strategy or to skip it. I've confirmed that the ExtractPlist strategy technically works (albeit, with a strategy block), though we try to avoid it whenever possible.

I'll wait to see if other maintainers have an opinion on how to approach this check. Once we've settled on how to handle it, I can push a commit to update the livecheck block.
